   Hey everyone,

   We are wanting to use a section of our header to display thumbnails from the most popular posts for the week. I have researched popular posts and thumbnail plugins, but have only found those that do either or, or do both but don't execute the function correctly. This feature exists on a lot of popular blogs.

   Can anyone recommend a plugin that records and pulls the most popular posts and then displays them, in thumbnail form, somewhere in our template? Thanks so much for everything.

   Edit: Basically, I want the Post Thumb Revisited plugin but allow it to pull the most popular (viewed) posts.

   Thanks again!

   Zea, you can use the Popular post plugin from here http://rmarsh.com/plugins/post-options/

   I'm doing it at http://ponetela10.com.ar, configuring the output something like

   <a href="{url}" class="Tips2" title="{title} :: {snippet:25}"><img src="{custom:miniatura}" alt="{title}" /></a>

   the "custom" links to a custom key value, associated with each post

   i have no idea how to solve it with a thumbs plugin

   hope it helps

   I figured out how to do this too, I posted the code on my blog (and you can see a live example)

   Popular Posts Displayed with Thumbnails
