    Hello,

    I am trying to get my featured images to display on my page, but I am not sure I am using the shortcode correctly. This is the code I have on my page:

    [blog_in_blog category_slug='garden' num=6 %post_thumbnail%]

    Am I using %post_thumbail% correctly? My posts show, but no featured images. The featured images show on the index.php fine. I would also like to use thumbnail_size=<size> with this.

    Thanks so much for the help, this is a great plugin.

    Hi,

    You have probably figured this out by now, but the tag you are trying to use, %post_thumbnail%, is not meant to be used in the shortcode. This is a template tag that you can use to build a custom template.

    If you want more info on this, let me know and I’ll give more details, but it’s been a while since you posted this so I will assume you have figured it out 🙂

    Hi I am using this great plugin and so far it has worked very well.
    I want a thumbnail image with the post and have managed to get this to work between the code on page and the template.
    Problem: The post is wrapping below the image not next to the image.
    Here is the url http://www.calvarynuevo.org/testnewsandevents

    I have tried several different ways of getting the post next to the image and so far nothing has worked. I did try resetting the text align to top instead of baseline but that ended up with one line of the post next to the image and the second line wrapping to the bottom leaving a large space. Any suggestions,,tricks,,,???
    I do have the except declared in the template instead of the entire post. not sure if that is part of the problem or not..still trouble shooting. Any suggestions or fixes will be greatly appreciated.
