Home page Thumbnails

[LeeShields]

Hi all

I've just got these templates today and am setting up my first project.

I know many of my customers have no chance of dealing with the thumbnailing and custom fields so I've just added this plugin which I've used before

http://return-true.com/2008/12/wordpres ... hed-image/

It pulls the first image from a post automatically and thumbnails it for you.

There are other custom setups you can use too

In home.php

around line 20 just add a line to this code

				<?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=".get_theme_mod('featured_top_left')."&showposts=".get_theme_mod('featured_top_left_num')); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
				<?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, "thumb", true) ): ?>
				[img]<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/tools/timthumb.php?src=<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, [/img]&amp;h=<?php echo get_theme_mod('featured_top_left_thumb_height'); ?>&amp;w=<?php echo get_theme_mod('featured_top_left_thumb_width'); ?>&amp;zc=1" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />	
				<?php else: ?>
              			<?php endif; ?>

Just add

<?php the_attached_image('',$recent); ?>

before the endif and the plugin adds a thumbnail automatically (you would need to do this for all featured lists)

Hope this is useful!
