raycrpOK, I've got a complicated situation here. I'm dealing with a plugin, WP Post Thumbnail, that I'm trying to incorporate into my site. The most recent version on this WordPress.org site, 0.1.8, worked great with my custom theme, and I was able to customize its location, styling, etc.
Unfortunately, the plugin developer released a 0.2 Beta 2 with a vastly better integrated file system, no longer supports the 0.1.8 codebase, but it's not currently updated on WordPress. I'm forced to use 0.2 since I assume he'll keep the same new file system rather than reverting to the old one, but I'm running into issues. The developer's site, comments area, and email are of no use, as it seems the developer has been MIA since May.
I'm hoping this isn't discontinued, since it's by far the best at what it does, but I'm not a PHP expert and can't seem to find a solution. I can logic my way through simple stuff, but this new version wants to automatically insert the post thumbnail at the beginning of "the_content" on the home page. I managed to change the code to "the_excerpt" since this is what I use on my site's home page. Thing is, I don't even want it there specifically. I want it aligned with the byline ABOVE the excerpt.
Anyone used 0.2 yet - or willing to take a look - to help me find a fix until the plugin is (hopefully) updated? I'd hate to have to resort to the old file saving system, when the new one's much better integrated. Basically, I'm just trying to remove the auto-insert into the_content, and insert the code that calls the thumbs manually into my theme. The code the developer provided doesn't work at all (I assume because of the auto-insert).
Here are the links if you need to see it. On my page, you can see where the thumbnails are currently inserted - there is no additional code for them, they just auto-insert at the beginning of the excerpt (which I don't want). Above them, you see small black squares, which is actually the outline of where the old thumbnails were and where I want the new ones to be.
