   Hi,

   I love the plugin, but how do I disable the "No Thumbnail" image for posts that don't have a thumbnail. This is how i'd like it to look

   If there's a thumbnail
   thumbnail post_title

   if there's no thumbnail
   post_title

   I have a lot of posts that don't have thumbnails and i'd like to utilize the space better if there's no thumbnail

   Hi keyboardji,

   As of now, there's no way to achieve this without hacking my plugin's code. This is what you need to do:

   # Open wordpress-popular-posts.php using a text editor such as Notepad or Dreamweaver.
   # Find (around line 718):
   

   if (!function_exists('get_the_post_thumbnail')) { // if the Featured Image is not active, show default thumbnail
       $thumb = "<a href=\"".get_permalink($the_ID)."\" class=\"wppnothumb\" title=\"". $title_attr ."\"><img src=\"". $this->default_thumbnail . "\" alt=\"".$title_attr."\" border=\"0\" class=\"wpp-thumbnail\" width=\"".$tbWidth."\" height=\"".$tbHeight."\" "."/></a>";
   } else {
       if (has_post_thumbnail( $the_ID )) { // if the post has a thumbnail, get it
           $thumb = "<a href=\"".get_permalink($the_ID)."\" title=\"". $title_attr ."\">" . get_the_post_thumbnail($the_ID, array($tbWidth, $tbHeight), array('class' => 'wpp-thumbnail', 'alt' => $title_attr, 'title' => $title_attr) ) . "</a>";
       } else { // try to generate a post thumbnail from first image attached to post. If it fails, use default thumbnail
           $thumb = "<a href=\"".get_permalink($the_ID)."\" title=\"". $title_attr ."\">" . $this->generate_post_thumbnail($the_ID, array($tbWidth, $tbHeight), array('class' => 'wpp-thumbnail', 'alt' => $title_attr, 'title' => $title_attr) ) ."</a>";
       }
   }

   # ... and replace with:
   

   if (!function_exists('get_the_post_thumbnail')) { // if the Featured Image is not active, show default thumbnail
       $thumb = "";
   } else {
       if (has_post_thumbnail( $the_ID )) { // if the post has a thumbnail, get it
           $thumb = "<a href=\"".get_permalink($the_ID)."\" title=\"". $title_attr ."\">" . get_the_post_thumbnail($the_ID, array($tbWidth, $tbHeight), array('class' => 'wpp-thumbnail', 'alt' => $title_attr, 'title' => $title_attr) ) . "</a>";
       } else { // try to generate a post thumbnail from first image attached to post. If it fails, use default thumbnail
           $thumb = "";
       }
   }
