I have tried to create a simple blog post with a picture but that dont work. When I create a blog post and upploading my picture that i want to have, it dosent show the picture no where, except it ju click on the blog text and then its all out of proportion. So I thought if someone had experience with this theme could help me.
Thanks

Here you go, I figured it out!
ok, first cmod your "cache" folder in the ePhoto directory to 777.
make sure all plugins are activated: Limit Posts, WP Page Navi, Wp Post Ratings and Lightbox 2.
Whenever you make a new post you will need to add a custom field. Scroll down below the text editor and click on the "custom fields" link. In the "Name" section, input "Thumbnail" (this is case sensitive). In the "Value" area, input the url to your thumbnail image.
create a category called "Featured Articles" it must be spelled correctly, (also case sensitive) make sure you don't edit or change the "slug" - so the "slug" should auto set to: featured-articles. now once you have created articles simply add them to the featured articles category (with the custom field from the above step added) and it will add the picture to the front page.
let us know if there are any problems.
regards,

Hi there Selcyis
I didn't start a new topic as I am not sure what to call it. Wondering if you can help me.
I'm a noobie creating a blog wordpress 2.8.2. I tried to upload a theme called Rock Solid (http://forthelose.org/themes/rocksolid/rocksolid-a-premium-wordpress-theme/ ) - which I really want as it matches up to all my immediate requirements (allowing me to slowly learn as I go how to customize etc).
I followed the instructions but the theme ended up sitting in its Zip package in my Media Library. I'm pig ignorant about what "lies beneath" - but wondered if it could have something to do with the version I am using?
Any suggestions? Isla

Ducuthesheriff, I checked out your site and I might know your issue. You need to have your target image folder on cache 777 and make sure the custom field has Thumbnail and value: http://targeting your image.com. If it doesnt work email me your info and I will fix it for you.
Isla, no it doesnt matter what verison your wordpress is! You need to unzip your theme drop it in your root folder http://www.domain.com/wp-content/theme then active the theme in the appearance/theme setting, then it should work on your domain. I hope I solved your question, if not message me with your info and I will help the best as I can.

I have created a modelling portfolio for my girlfriend and on the portfolio page 10 images appear, I've looked through all the files and couldn't work out what I needed to change, It's quite silly of the developer to have set it to 10 photos instead of 12 or 8.
Check it out for yourselves:

If anybody could help that would be great.

Look in the theme options or nav page settings to change how many to post on a page. This is a very easy fix. It there!!!!

I want, in stead of that blue button to browse categories, for those buttons to appear like the page buttons...
Do you understand?
Posted 1 month ago #
Find the dierctory of the button or look in the theme folder for the syle.css and replace the blue btn url to the nav btn.
Or replace the img with desired btn img.

I have another problem. I am trying to embed video into the posts. The Read me says to create a custom field called Video and then put the embed code in the value but this is not working. Also, how can I make the Thumbnails only show up in the little boxes and then when you go to the page they aren't at the top in that box. http://www.merrillbarr.com

Hi,selcyis
I am having a problem getting images to show on our site. I have cached the folder, added the Featured Article cat and added the custom fields, we also hosted the images on our own domain, however the images still do not seem to show on the home page, they are clickable but do not show.
Please could you take a look at let me know what you think is wrong.
If it is easier you can email me @ sean.halse@hotmail.co.uk

Hi, I have the same problem as others above except that the thumbnails don't appear in Firefox and google chrome, but the odd part is that they appear in IE.
Appreciate any help. thanks.

Has anyone figured out how to change the 10 post layout on the category page on ePhoto? As neslot007 said, it was rather silly for the designer to choose 10 in this four-column setup...8 or 12 would have been much better.
I'm sure there's somewhere I can change this, but I don't think it's in the built in settings panels in the admin area. Anyone know where that code is in the theme files?

Also, is there an easier way to display the photos on the site than to just make hundreds of posts with "Thumbnail" fields? I have all the photos in my Library, can I just display them in a Category somehow? I'm a photographer, and I would really just like to use this as a way to let my clients view their photos.
Any tips would be appreciated!
