No worries, thanks for trying to help ??

Does that do the same thing? I want to use it for reviews, not for rating posts. Ie. “This game was good. 3 Stars”

Thanks. Unfortunately I don’t think HMV will change their corporate livery on my behalf and it is one of the better advertising schemes so that’ll be staying. Hopefully the one on the left will change in the future though.

Progress.

“The plugin wasn’t working with my 2.1 WordPress installation, but I just discovered that the problem is with my version of MySQL (5.0.18), which has a bug that causes the field “post_parent” in the posts table not be updated properly when a image is uploaded. For example, if I upload an image to the post with ID 19, the row that represents the image in the database should have the “post_parent” field equals to 19, but in my database it’s been recorded something like “-123881723″, so I have to update it by myself in order to the image display properly.”

From Vinicius on the Post Image comments (from the link up a few posts). And he’s right – it’s an indenical problem on mine too. Going in, editing the error number and refreshing the homepage and the image appears as expected.

Any chance of there being a fix for this? Luckilly in my case it’s not an epic task to change the number each time but it’s quite annoying.

For everyone with the problem though at least there is a workaround now.

Any progress on this?

Having a very slow and meticulous look through and a little bit of experimenting it seems it works perfectly if you only upload one image.

Which is why it worked on my local version – I didn’t put the rest of the post behind the tests.

So beyond that, I can’t help.

There’s good news and bad news. The good news is on my local test version of the site this works perfectly and does exactly what I want.

Now I’ve come to put it online, it’s just not showing images. No error code, but no image either. I’m pretty sure I’ve got the same WordPress version on both, but I’ve seen mention of this not working properly with v2.1, which is definitely the version the online site is using.

Any ideas?

EDIT: And everything else is identical too – it’s even the same images.

I was linking to outside images, but for no particular reason other than force of habit. I’ll give your plugin a spin (as it sounds like it does exactly what I want) and report back.

Hmm…I think you misinterpreted what I’m trying to do I’m afraid. Although that second solution is very clever.

Anyway, I’ve already got the image appearing on the front page (it happens to be using the excerpt reloaded plugin, set to allow IMG tags through). What I want is the image to be a clickable link to the post, identical to the post title.

I’ll have a look.

It seems like quite an easy thing to do in my head, just recognising an img tag and putting a link around it, but it must just not be something people need. And while it might sound easy in my head, I sure as hell don’t know where to start creating it myself!

Anyone?

Thanks guys. I’ll read through it all, but I think I might just go for the simpler solution.

Greatly appreciated.
