    That fixed it! I will default to the the single image browser uploader when I come across broken images in the future.

    Many thanks.

    Hi mercime, I’m attempting to reload my client’s old site with the hopes that the layout will render back to normal. I can’t keep it up this long and it’s a high traffic blog.

    I see what you mean on all of the head tags – they’re all associated with widgets or rollover images and I’m guessing I can delete those from the widget code?

    My ultimate goal is to create a separate page that will have a gallery of thumbnails, with each thumbnail linking to it’s respective post. Rather than have this gallery on the home page, I’d like it to be a separate page. Any thoughts?

    Thanks so much for your help. Back to square one?

    I’ve put all coding for thumbnails (as per your directions) back, it should be correct now (at least it is when viewing through my ftp and wordpress).

    It it still rendering incorrectly on the home page… I’m not sure which part of the code has done that. I’ve tried deleting snippets to troubleshoot but to no avail.

    Thanks, mercime. I look forward to your suggestions {pulling out my hair on this end}.

    I meant to say </html> </body> in the above

    Hi, I’ve just searched every page and I can’t find any erroneous <html> <body> or closing </html> </html> tags other than those in the header and footer. Where else are you seeing them?

    I attempted to revert back to my original code to fix the rendering issues that now display on the main page (only part of each post and no images) which is why you can’t find the <span class=”mythumb”><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?></span> and excerpt tag. But they were there. The home page is still showing what appeared when I edited all code per your exact instructions for enabling the thumbnails. I can’t seem to get it back (which might be a server issue?) to showing full posts and images.

    Thanks!

    The goal is ultimately create a page that has a thumbnail of all posts tagged as ‘tutorials’. Each of these tutorial thumbnails would link out to their respective post when clicked.

    Thank you so much – I edited my functions, index and css styles files without problems and the ‘Set Thumbnail’ is now visible in the editing post section!

    The template on the main page has changed drastically though to show just the first paragraph and no images of each post? Do you know how I can change this back to the original display? https://www.madebylex.com/

    Thanks!

    My theme is called Rhea (https://www.blogohblog.com/wordpress-theme-rhea-v10/). You can see the final modified blog I’m working on here: madebylex.com

    Where does this code go: set_post_thumbnail_size( 50, 50, true ); // 50 pixels wide by 50 pixels tall, hard crop mode

    What additional necessary code is required in the home.php, index.php, etc? maybe you could quickly explain the concept of a ‘loop’….

    Thanks

    Thanks mercime for the quick reply. I have a few questions on your suggestion:
    -I tried previously enabling the feature by inserting the following code in my functions.php file, however it does not enable the option to select a thumbnail image for each post (could it be my theme??):
    add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’ );
    -If we can troubleshoot through the above, the ‘comments’ section of the link you gave over suggests that this tutorial doesn’t allow each image thumbnail to connect to it’s original post (and an html page of just the image instead)

    THANK YOU for your help! Look forward to your reply.

    Hi esmi,

    Thank you for the reply. I have tried making sure my browser history was empty, as well as CTRL F5 to ensure I was saving all of my work, but still it’s not updating correctly.

    Thanks for your suggestion – does any one else have any thoughts? This is so frustrating… I’m at a bit of standstill.

    Thanks!

    Hi henkholland,

    What I mean by changing the codes is that when I edit the stylesheet.css or any of the .php files (such as changing margins, the color, etc) the actual website does not update.

    One that I’m especially confused by is the index.php file. I’m trying to add: ‘Follow Me on Twitter’ and an RSS ‘Feed’ button to the navigation bar as follows:

    [EDIT: Template code removed. Please use the WordPress pastebin and post the pastebin url here when referencing large blocks of code.]

    However it’s not updating on the website. I’ve tried editing this code in both dreamweaver and though wp’s Editor.

    Thank you!
