I have this problem too! I have tried everything but I gave up and now I crop the images before uploading…not the best solution though

I also tried on a vanilla installation without any luck…

Thank you!!

Oh thanks! I must have overlooked that!

This is the full code, in my functions.php

//Use "Featured Image" box as a custom box
function customposttype_image_box() {

	remove_meta_box('postimagediv', 'au-portfolio', 'side');
	remove_meta_box('postimagediv', 'au-gallery', 'side');

	add_meta_box('galleryimagediv', __('Full Size Image. Ratio 4:3, minimum size 800 x 600 pixels.'), 'post_thumbnail_meta_box', 'au-gallery', 'normal', 'low');
	add_meta_box('postimagediv', __('Video Thumbnail - 100 X 60 pixels - Bigger images will be cropped automatically.'), 'post_thumbnail_meta_box', 'au-portfolio', 'normal', 'low');

}
add_action('do_meta_boxes', 'customposttype_image_box');

Do you mean something like this?

It is what I did for a webfolio site.

You can create the fields with this plugin, if you do not want to do a lot of coding by yourself.

You can also add some custom taxonomies to it with this plugin

Eventually you might have a look at the plugin files to see how the code works

I would like to show the tags in a drop down menu…

I figured it out.
The “Choose from most used tags” does not display a list of tags, but only the most used or those which has been used at least once.

Is there a way to override this behaviour from functions.php??

Otherwise is there a way to remove the “parenting” feature if I use a custom category (with hierarchical => true;) instead of tags?

Thank you

Well, if someone makes a plug in for it and who is using the plug in is willing to make a donation, there is nothing wrong….

Yeah…this is what I did eventually ??

I figured it out!

It was a CSS problem with some conflicting “overflow:hidden” properties in my CSS file.

Thanks, very very useful!

I figured it out!

My post type is called ‘au-portfolio’, then I used this in my function.php:

function customposttype_image_box() {

	remove_meta_box('postimagediv', 'au-portfolio', 'side');

	add_meta_box('postimagediv', __('Video Thumbnail - 100 X 60 pixels - Bigger images will be cropped automatically.'), 'post_thumbnail_meta_box', 'au-portfolio', 'normal', 'low');

}

Presto!

The Thematic forum has got no activity at all…I posted the same question some time ago but I did not get any reply.

The guide does not say anything about it either. I am kinda stuck right now

Well…I was about to ask the same thing…I would like to have the full name both for posts and comments.

Which files are we supposed to modify?

Thank you
