Flex theme and thumbnails

  • I installed the flex theme but can′t get the thumbnails to show the images from the videos o photographs posted. Is there anyway to get my wordpress to automatically select an image from the post and use it as a thumbnail? Thanks.

  • Make sure you have this code, or a code like this:

    <?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, "thumbnail", true) ): ?>

        <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><img src="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "thumbnail", true); ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" width="70" border="1" style="float:left;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px;" /></a>

        <?php else: ?>

       <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><img style="float:left;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px;"  src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/thumbnail.png" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" /></a>

        <?php endif; ?>

    Then in the post you add a custom field. Select one that says “thumbnail” and add the image URL.

    Thanks for your reply Tom, what Im looking for is for the thumbnail to automatically select an image from the content of the post.
