Installing this plugin breaks the featured image meta box

I have found the issue.

The following is placed in fluid-responsive-slideshow/Fluid-Responsive-Slideshow.php

add_action('after_setup_theme','after_setup_theme_pjc',5);

function after_setup_theme_pjc(){
	add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails', array('pjc_slideshow') );
}

This is overriding the function already set in the custom theme. Any way around this as, obviously, changing the above will get changed back when I update the plugin??

Here’s a fix:

add_action('after_setup_theme','after_setup_theme_pjc',5);

function after_setup_theme_pjc(){
        global $_wp_theme_features;
        $_wp_theme_features['post-thumbnails'] = array_merge($_wp_theme_features['post-thumbnails'], array('pjc_slideshow'));
}

Great! Cheers Chris, helpful as always ??

cool, thanks cris !

i’ll put it in the master trunk branch.

The proper way to use post-thumbnails have always been a problem for me. Many thank for solution ??

Hi found :

https://core.trac.www.ads-software.com/ticket/22080

It’s ben discused there…

should be like this for every dev who want to add featured image :

if(isset($_wp_theme_features[‘post-thumbnails’])){
global $_wp_theme_features;
$_wp_theme_features[‘post-thumbnails’] = array_merge($_wp_theme_features[‘post-thumbnails’], array(‘pjc_slideshow’));
}
//no other post type using post-thumbnails
else
add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’, array(‘pjc_slideshow’) );

For me it still does not work, i use version 0.9.7 and it still disabled featured images on my posts. Half of my theme widgets are based on featured images from posts and pages. Any other solution?

Adding Chris’ function to your functions.php will work. This is what I use and it works fine.

@todiadiyatmo That is still not going to work (I recently installed your updated plugin on a new site to test).

@todiadiyatmo: You shouldn’t need the if/else condition there, it’s needlessly complicated – just cast $_wp_theme_features[‘post-thumbnails’] to an array instead:

function after_setup_theme_pjc(){
        global $_wp_theme_features;
        $_wp_theme_features['post-thumbnails'] = array_merge((array)$_wp_theme_features['post-thumbnails'], array('pjc_slideshow'));
}

Hey guys,

The function which was provided by Chris should be added to my theme functions.php or plugin Fluid-Responsive-Slideshow.php ?

theme functions.php

Thanks for help guys. I didn’t add Chris function to my functions.php because it created new errors. However, what worked was simply removing

if(isset($_wp_theme_features[‘post-thumbnails’])){
global $_wp_theme_features;
$_wp_theme_features[‘post-thumbnails’] = array_merge($_wp_theme_features[‘post-thumbnails’], array(‘pjc_slideshow’));
}
//no other post type using post-thumbnails
else
add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’, array(‘pjc_slideshow’) );

This part from Fluid-Responsive-Slideshow.php

Sventas, what theme do you use ?

“Glide”, responsive ajax theme. From themeForest

Hi all i’ve check with several themes which have featured images

i ended up with this code :

global $_wp_theme_features;

	//check if post-thumbnails support defined
	if(isset($_wp_theme_features['post-thumbnails'])){
		//check if post-thumbails is set to true ( means all post have featured image), skip if true
		if(  $_wp_theme_features['post-thumbnails']!=true)
			//if post thumbnails only defined for specific post, merge the array
			$_wp_theme_features['post-thumbnails'] = array_merge((array)$_wp_theme_features['post-thumbnails'], array('pjc_slideshow'));
	}

This fix now no longer works, but the featured image box is still missing…..

Is this ever likely to be fixed or should I dump this plugin>?
