Link Featured Image at Main Blog

is there any way to display the featured image at the Main Blog?

You could write some code that did that but SWT does not do it.

Hello,

can you please explain what the “Include Post Thumbnails” checkbox at the SWT settings does?

Best regards

It adds a thumbnail meta value to the SWT that contains the thumbnail html for the thumbnail on the source site.

But post thumbnails are the same as featured images, right? It’s the same functionality, only the name changed in version 3.0 from thumbnails to featured images. See https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Post_Thumbnails.

Unless I misunderstand completely, the plugin just has to be updated for WordPress versions 3.0 and higher. The “Include Post Thumbnails” checkbox on the SWT settings page could be named “Include Post Featured Images”. And something in the code of the SWT plugin should be changed to reflect the changes in the handling of thumbnails/featured images in the new WordPress versions.

But post thumbnails are the same as featured images, right?

Not exactly. A post can have a thumbnail without having a featured image. If the featured image is not set then the thumbnail is taken from the first image attached to the post.

I added the thumbnail support to SWT after I finished working on the merge of WP & MU in WP 3.0.
