    <?php
    	$thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID,'Thumbnail', true);
    	$thumb = ( !empty( $thumb ) ) ? $thumb : '/images/whitebg.jpg';
    	print '<img src="' . $thumb . '" width="80" height="80" alt="" />';
    	?>

    I’m doing a Theme, but I can’t link to the image theme folder like this: <?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/whitebg.jpg
    is there any other way to do that?
    Thanks

    Try get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); instead and see if that works better for you.

    The problem is bloginfo is echoing the output
    Use this function instead http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/get_bloginfo

    <?php
    	$thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID,'Thumbnail', true);
    	$thumb = ( !empty( $thumb ) ) ? $thumb : '<?php get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory');?>/images/whitebg.jpg';
    	print '<img src="' . $thumb . '" width="80" height="80" alt="" />';
    	?>

    jdembowski thanks for your Answer but I have tried, does not work
    If I view the image, I get the web address URL like this: http://localhost/wordpress/%3C?php%20get_bloginfo(%27stylesheet_directory%27);%20?%3E/images/whitebg.jpg 😉

    Like stvwlf said, use get_bloginfo() INSTEAD of bloginfo()…

    get_bloginfo DOES NOT echo, unlike bloginfo….

    Ok Thank you everyone, but I have solved my own problem 😉

    here is the Problem

    <?php
    	$thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID,'Thumbnail', true);
    	$thumb = ( !empty( $thumb ) ) ? $thumb : '<?php get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory');?>/images/whitebg.jpg';
    	print '<img src="' . $thumb . '" width="80" height="80" alt="" />';
    	?>

    here is the Problem solved.

    <?php
    	$thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID,'Thumbnail', true);
    	$thumb = ( !empty( $thumb ) ) ? $thumb : './wp-content/themes/mytheme/images/whitebg.jpg';
    	print '<img src="' . $thumb . '" width="80" height="80" alt="" />';
    	?>

    Thank you everyone and Good night

    Hi, the problem was this line..

    $thumb = ( !empty( $thumb ) ) ? $thumb : '<?php get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory');?>/images/whitebg.jpg';

    Which should be..

    $thumb = ( !empty( $thumb ) ) ? $thumb : get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/images/whitebg.jpg';

    Due to the second <?php ….

    Incorrectly switching in/out of PHP…

    I skimmed over the post before because the solution was already given.

    Thanks t31os
    I have change instead of this get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory') to
    get_bloginfo('template_directory')

    like this:

    <?php
    	$thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID,'Thumbnail', true);
    	$thumb = ( !empty( $thumb ) ) ? $thumb : get_bloginfo('template_directory').'./images/whitebg.jpg';
    	print '<img src="' . $thumb . '" width="80" height="80" alt="Post Thumb" />';
    	?>

    and It works great! 😉

    Yep, just use whichever works for you… 🙂
