]]>How to configure the timing of images on the main screen?
The featured images used by the get image plug-in pass very quickly.
I would like to increase the time to change the images.
Hello – I have trouble conceptualizing this plugin even with the instructions here – https://github.com/justintadlock/get-the-image/blob/master/readme.md#usage. Is there a walk through video available?
]]>In the FAQ on the plugin’s www.ads-software.com details page, the “view the readme online” link directs to the readme for breadcrumb trail.
]]>Isn’t it true, that if you add code inside the loop it will be overwritten on the next WordPress update? I’m using a child theme, can you advise on how to place your code inside the loop but in Child Theme fashion? Is it function.php?
]]>Greetings,
For the life of me I can’t get this to do what I want. It’s probably me ?? but I was trying to set this plugin to pull the LAST attached image or a randomly attached image. Currently it seems to only show the first image that’s ever attached. I tried to modify the code some for order and orderby. Changing them to DESC or rand() but it just crashed.
Anyone know of a simple solution?
Overview: I have a site that users upload food pics to from restaurants. I want it to always show the last one as the thumbs on my site.
]]>Hi I have your plugin and when I upgraded to 4.4.2 the images broke. I assume I need to fix something in the code but I wanted to ask first.
My site: https://reelfishn.net
you will see the broken images right on the main page.
Thanks,
Ryan
]]>Hello author,

Thank you! ??
]]>The image is not showing in my main page after update has been done. I already rolled it back to a lower version but im still having the same problem. When i right click on the image it says:
A TimThumb error has occured
The following error(s) occured:
Could not find the internal image you specified.
Query String : src=Array&w=300&h=300&zc=1&q=100
TimThumb version : 2.8.13
Please help.
Thank you
]]>I have a website that utilises Get the Image (GTI) plugin to pull a post image into a UDesign theme widget on the homepage. However, I can never work out which thumbnail image will be placed in the widget areas of the homepage, per post excerpt!
See WinAPrizeHome.com.au under slider for 60x60px thumbnails in excerpts.
Your plugin support says:
How does it grab images?
1. Looks for an image by custom field (one of your choosing).
2. If no image is added by custom field, check for an image using the_post_thumbnail() (WordPress featured image).
3. If no image is found, it grabs an image attached to your post.
4. If no image is attached, it can extract an image from your post content (off by default).
5. If no image is found at this point, it will fall back to a default image (not set by default).
With UDesign’s GTI-to-widget integration, I think my options start at no. 4 because I insert images into posts without attaching/linking etc. (no. 3).
How does GTI select an image from the post? Last image inserted? Or what?
If I rely on option 4 above, then how do I set that ON (as you say, it’s off by default)?
]]>As my question says in the subject headline. Does this plugin support Multisite installations?
Thanks a lot in advance for your answer..
]]>Hello!
Is this a plugin I can use for display thumbnails in the sidebar which links to child posts, and if child post, links to full size image in a div?
Thanks!
]]>Hello,
I am a beginner, but I do not understand how plugin works, what needs to be done first. The plugin has been installed what next. I have a few pictures of WordPress and I would like the pictures in my home page. What is the Code and where it must be put on, page, article. Can I put the Widgets / Text menu in html or what?
Thanks for help!
]]>How can I make it such that when a user clicks on an image brought forth by get_the_image, it takes them to the media file itself (“/image.jpg”) rather than the page affiliated with the image ? Thanks !
]]>Hi there, how can i use something like:
get_the_image(1) and get_the_image(2), is that possible with this plugin?
thanks.
]]>So weird – the thumbnail feature images are all correct but if I have another photo in the post, it will pull that image for the slider. I have to completely delete the photo from the library before the slider will pick up the correct feature image. Please help!!
]]>I’m having trouble because some of my posts are displaying the featured image correctly and some are not. The ones that aren’t correct are pulling other images from the post even though I have selected a featured image. I have to completely remove and delete the other image for the featured image to show correctly. The posts that display correctly were done at the same time and set up the same way so I don’t know what the issue is. Any help is appreciated.

Using latest version of the plugin (1.0.1), I took the opportunity of this recent release to update my theme code and remove some deprecated arguments.
However, if I’m not adding 'size' => 'thumbnail'
to the argument list, I do NOT retrieve the thumbnail ; however the documentation explains it should be the default.
Did I understand incorrectly something, or is there a bug here?
My code sample (with the ‘size’ argument, so that it works):
<?php if (function_exists('get_the_image')) { echo get_the_image(array ('size' => 'thumbnail', 'link_to_post' => false, 'width' => '120', 'height' => '120', 'default_image' => get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/library/images/PointingHand.png')); } ?>
Thanks in advance for your support.
]]>Hello,
The Description page is full of great marketing about how the plugin is used by many sites and how wonderful it is–but where is the Description for what this plugin does? How can I learn what to do with this plugin? What specific things can be accomplished with the plugin?
Can those questions be answered at the top of the Description and all the other good stuff put below the What it Does/What You Can Do with It section?
I’m asking for this because I found this plugin linked on a site when I was searching for a plugin that will set a random featured image from the Media Library for any post without a featured image.
This plugin seems great by all the info about who’s using it and it’s history on the description page. I just wish I knew the description of what it does.
Thank you,
Chris
BTW I see this kind of marketing “description” more and more on many plugins. Knowing what a plugin can do is the most important aspect of the plugin. This should be on the top of the hype.
]]>The updated plugin doesn’t work with the Old Decrepit Worthless SoloStream themes.
I don’t have time to completely overhaul my clients theme right now. Can you please tell me where I can get an older version of Get The Image please so I can install that until I can rip out SoloStream.
Thank you.
]]>Hi,
The GitHub repository is no longer used?
In “get_the_image.php”, line 132:
'post_id' => get_the_ID(),
If there is no current post, for example in an empty category page, this line displays a warning: “Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /…/wp-includes/post-template.php on line 30”.
Please replace with:
'post_id' => isset($args['post_id']) ? null : get_the_ID(),
elongates images on my front page.
Twenty Twelve child theme
This is a general notice to everyone experiencing this problem. I’ve seen several cases of it. In all cases, it was because a theme author was using a feature that was deprecated 4 years ago in this plugin, which was way back when version 0.5.0 was released.
Because I felt that sufficient time had passed for theme authors to upgrade their code, this deprecated feature was removed in version 1.0.0. Frankly, 4 years is a long time to hold onto legacy code. There’s only so much bloat I’m willing to keep around.
How to fix
Each theme is going to be different, so I can’t tell everyone the exact changes they’ll need to make within their theme. It’d be better to point your theme author here.
The problem arises when using the array
value for the format
argument, which would be something like:
$image = get_the_image(
array(
'format' => 'array'
)
);
That’s fine. The problem is when the theme tries to use $image['url']
. That code should be $image['src']
. It should be a simple fix for theme authors to make.
Avoiding problems like this in the future
If you’re a theme author, please keep track of changes to the plugin as they’re made. Version 1.0.0 has been in development for several months and live on its GitHub repository.
You can keep track of the plugin’s development here:
https://github.com/justintadlock/get-the-image
I just update the plugin and now the images on my footer are not appearing.
Only a ? mark where the image would be. Please help!
Thanks!!
]]>Hello. I just downloaded your plugin. I need to “override” the “Set Feature Image” WP function an use your plugin to identify the Feature Image. Is this possible?
It’s important that the Featured Image I choose to use with Get the Image does not appear on the post itself. My goal is to have post content independent of Featured Image. As you know, if I use the WP Featured Image function, the featured image always appears as the first image at the top of my post. I want to avoid that.
If you and your plugin can help with this, it will greatly improve my blogging and editing process.
I look forward to hearing from you.

]]>I recently added Better Security plugin to my site. Then suddenly the whole site crashed. I tried deactivating all plugins only to find out that the conflict is with Get the Image plugin. When I deactivated it my website returned working again. Better security plugin blocks get the image. I wrote to the better security guys asking for help on their side. Any advice from your side gentlemen?
Thank you.
Hi, will this plugin (current version) work with WordPress 3.8? I’m having an error with installing 3.8 and trying to figure out which plugin is causing the issue. Thought I’d check. Thanks.
]]>Hello Justin,
Just discovered your plugin and would love to start using it right away. It really looks like an awesome plugin.
Unfortunately I am not able to activate the plugin.
The website is https://MyBlog.Directory
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare get_the_image() (previously declared in /home4/loudcry/public_html/myblog.directory/wp-content/themes/ArticleDirectory/ArticleDirectory/library/functions/get-the-image.php:49) in /home4/loudcry/public_html/myblog.directory/wp-content/plugins/get-the-image/get-the-image.php
If you could help me get this activated that would be terrific.
]]>Not sure what happened…. went through an update of two plugins ( wptouch & succuri ) and get the image, no won’t work. It uninstalled itself, all files missing except in the directory “/wp-content/themes/wp-davinci-209/plugins/get-the-image.php”
But, if I delete this PHP file fro get the image, the WHOLE site goes down. I don’t know what to do.
I tried reinstalling the plugin, I get this fatal error:
“Fatal error: Cannot redeclare get_the_image() (previously declared in /var/www/vhosts/hotrodprofessional.com/httpdocs/wp-content/themes/wp-davinci-209/plugins/get-the-image.php:55) in /var/www/vhosts/hotrodprofessional.com/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/get-the-image/get-the-image.php on line 227”
I don’t know what to do to fix it. Please help.
