Show thumbnails for posts, but not for the post your on | WordPress.org

I´m making a portfolio-style theme where I´m looping in thumbnails from other posts in the same category, under the content of the single post. However, I would like to exclude the post you´re currently reading from the thumbnail listing. Anyone knows how I could do that?

This is what my current loop looks like:

Outside the loop
```
<?php $postid = $post->ID; ?>
```
Inside the loop
```
<?php if ( ($post->ID != $postid ) && has_post_thumbnail() ) :?>
```

'exclude' might not be the right/valid parameter; try 'post__not_in':

change from this:
'exclude' => $post->ID
to this:
'post__not_in' => array($post->ID)

—
to get only posts with thumbnails, you can try and add this to the query parameters:
'meta_key' => '_thumbnail_id'

(or try:
'meta_query' => array(array('key' => '_thumbnail_id'))
