• I have a featured image in my post, but I don’t want to use it in my autonav gallery. I want to use a different image thumbnail, which I have created and uploaded via the WP Media Library (so it is in my uploads directory). It is a 75×62 image called “2014.06.11-peerlesscat75.jpg”, in case that matters.

    I created a custom field called “subpage_thumb” inside my post editor and assigned it the full URL of the image I uploaded.

    However, when I load the gallery on the front end, it continues to pull the featured image. I am using the following shortcode for the gallery:
    [autonav display=”posts,attached” postid=”category:58″ columns=”6″ count=999]

    I am using Autonav version 1.5.6 and WP version 3.9.1.

    Am I doing something wrong? Thanks so much in advance for the help. I love the plug-in.

    Have you tried the updated 1.5.8? Also, the image named in subpage_thumb must be either:

    • a full URL (http://example.com/image.jpg)
    • an exact path to the image file, relative to your wp-uploads/ directory

    You can’t just put 2014.06.11-peerlesscat75.jpg − you need to put 2014/08/2014.06.11-peerlesscat75.jpg if that’s where it went when you uploaded it.
