    in ePhoto, what the link I should place on the BLOG button so every time someone clicks on it, the person goes to the last pos I wrote? (I have several categories).

    I have these fields to fill:
    "Input URL to Blog Category"
    "Input Blog Category ID"

    my problem with this theme was that the thumbnails weren't showing up.

    i setup everything correctly. it ran the script and would generate the thumbnails. i could see them in the cache folder, but they wouldn't appear on my site.

    i figured that it was my hosting. i was using that GoDaddy Free Hosting that puts an ad at the top of the page. that was the problem.

    i upgraded to a pay plan (to get rid of the ad) and it worked!

    if those of you who have problems with thumbnails not appearing and use GoDaddy Free Hosting on your site, upgrade or find another theme.

    The Problem as I see is in the "Thumbnail" Value Specified. Do not give the full URL.

    http://your-domain/blog/images/../image.jpg wont work.

    just give the Image with respect to the home directory. ( public_html)

    there is a file called timthumb.php in the home directory. Just give the image url with respect to that file.

    So if the WP installation is in your-domain/blog/

    then just give /folder/image.jpg

    That should solve it,

    Hi all,

    Still having a problem with ePhoto theme :(
    I have followed all the instructions in that readme file and also the instructions posted here and still having a problem.
    Mt Thumbnails are working fine and I have created the Featured Articles category and added my posts to it. The thoumbnails show up in the Featured Photo's section in the footer but nothing showing in the main carousel on the homepage.
    I have checked the file permissions on all the folders in question and as far as I can tell they are all 777.
    Anyone have any idea's? really need to fix this and I know it's only something simple.
    siet is http://www.bmcdphoto.com/testing/

    Thanks

    Will

    Hi All,

    Simple Solution:
    Here's what I did to display images for Feature Articles

    at the back end

    Click Editor > Open the filename(featured.php)> Look for:

    <li style="background-image: url(<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/timthumb.php?src=<?php echo $thumb; ?>&h=364&w=655&zc=1&q=60);">

    Change to:

    <li style="background-image: url(<?php echo $thumb; ?>);">

    hello at all

    i like to deactivate the "read more >>" button in the tumbnails!
    like this user here:
    http://www.rosiethomsen.com.au/

    how can i do that?

    i don't need the "read more >>" button and also don't need the article site, i also deactivated the rating stuff.

    i want only the lightbox pop up and the featured photos on the top.
    also i don't need the rating stuff.

    thanks a lot!

    When I try to upload photos to a page using the regular text box, it will show up in the box, but on the website will appear as a gray box with lines going through it. how do i fix it?

    Selcyis thank you so much for this forum :) I was able to read through the different threads and figure out what I needed to do. ( I was having the same problems. Thumbnails...main image photos not showing etc...)

    Since all the answers are around on the forum people...I will try my best to do a basic step by step list.

    1) LOGO: Anyone who wants to change the logo. Delete the one that came in the ephoto images file (note file extension) Make a new one and save as logo.png. Because i host on godaddy I used the file manager. I deleted the logo inside the file. and simply uploaded a new one into the same file, i gave it the same name logo.png. And thats all

    2)THUMBNAILS: Theres no way around it. You have to change file permission on the
    file called cache that came with ephoto. I used Filezilla (free ftp software) to do this. Once I logged on to the hosting server...i went to the ephoto theme file, located the cache file. Highlight and click the folder and you'll see 3 files inside. Since I use a mac, I pressed alt and right click on each file to change permission. If you use windows i think all you have to do is right click. Anyway, a tiny drop down menu shows up and i went to "change file permission". you'll note the file permission is 666, well, now change it to 777 for each one.

    3) MAIN PHOTO: Now, go to your admin panel in wordpress. Go to "post" go to "categories" click add new. Make one called "Featured Articles" make sure spelling is correct, including the capital letters for F and A. Do not put anything in slug..it generates an automatic slug.

    4) UPLOADING PICTURE: So after you've written your post, now you want to upload your picture to go with it right? Click Icon for upload photo. You'll see 3 options 1) From computer 2) from URL 3) Media Library You'll choose any of these depending on where your photo you want to use is located. Once your photo is uploaded click save and then "show" and copy the url link to your picture. Close box. the scroll down past the text box of your new post to where it says "custom fields"
    and where it says "NAME" enter the word "Thumbnail" make sure it has a capital T.
    Then in the Value field you are going to paste the url link to the photo. Last but not least, you will assign the category. Go to the menu on the right side bar menu to where it says category and click "Featured Articles" and whatever other category you wish to assign.

    And thats it. Your home page should display everything! The main photo and the Thumbnails! And your logo!
