# [Plugin: Multiple Post Thumbnails] Upload boxes not displaying (fix)

 * I noticed that a few other people have been having problems getting the upload
   boxes to display on the edit post screen. Either the boxes don’t display at all,
   or they display in the wrong order, or only some display but not others. I think
   I may have a solution!
 * In the file multi-post-thumbnails.php, take line 83:
 * `add_action('add_meta_boxes', array($this, 'mpt_add_metabox'), 12);`
 * and move it after line 86, so it’s the last call to `add_action()` within the`
   register()` function. So far, this has entirely fixed the problem for me in 3.1.4.
   Definitely worth a shot if you’re having this issue.

 * Thanks for the info. I have a fix for this in trunk if you’d like to test it:
   [multi-post-thumbnails.php](http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/multiple-post-thumbnails/trunk/multi-post-thumbnails.php)

 * Hi Chris and arizzitano,
 * Did this fix fix everything for you? Upgrading to version 0.7 broke that for 
   me. Now, only the main featured image shows up, and not the other featured image
   boxes.

 * [@dustingtaylor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dustingtaylor/) did you 
   try the version from trunk I linked to above?

 * I see what is happening. The change in 0.7 causes this bug only if you instantiate
   the `MultiPostThumbnails` class in an action. I’ve reverted this change and released
   this as 0.8.

 * Yes, I was instantiating it in an action.
 * Where can I get 0.8?

 * [0.8 is here](http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/multiple-post-thumbnails/tags/0.8/).
   Only the `multi-post-thumbnails.php` and `readme.txt` are changed from prior 
   versions.

 * Will it be pushed to the wordpress plugin repository soon?

 * It already has been but still some parts cached. The download zip file is 0.8
   but the label still says 0.7. Not sure what the update API says…

 * Perfect. Great plugin Chris. It’s saved my life multiple times. And very easy
   to understand and implement it.
