 * I changed themes and now the pictures for my posts aren’t showing up in the homepages
   thumbnail areas. What can I do to fix this?

 * HI Jayceee,
 * The following plugin should fix your problem!

 * I downloaded and ran the plugin but it did not restore the picture thumbnails
   on my homepage. If it helps i am using the Kriterion theme and have watched install
   and test videos but my pictures still wont load. Could it be a plugin I have?
   Should i reset the theme maybe?

 * Hmm sorry to hear that. What is a link to your site so I can take a look? If 
   you mean switch theme to another and then back again, you could try that but 
   don’t know if that would make any difference.

 * [http://www.techy-stuff.com](http://www.techy-stuff.com). Its still a work in
   progress. I think my problem was maybe I was trying to use pages as means of 
   displaying posts rather than categories? The whole Menus-Pages-Categories thing
   is still sort of confusing to me.

 * Hmm I am a bit confused too. your images aren’t broken like I first assumed from
   your post. I think you just need to set your featured image on each post. I am
   not familiar with this theme though. sorry I cant really help here

 * Ha! I figured out that it was the featured image then came back to this post 
   to give you a heads up to only find that you had suggested the same. Thanks anyway
   man, I appreciate it!
