You should see your old post, and expand the featured image link on the right hand side, and try to ‘Set Featured Image’ to an existing image you previously uploaded. * I am also having another problem with featured image.

It is a breeze with the new media manager. Just click on the gallery and press the edit button that shows up, and then you can edit the image links and other attribute in each image in the gallery. * Forum: [Alpha/Beta/RC](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/alphabeta/) In reply to: [3.5 RC3: Thumbnail pictures looking skewed on Internet Explorer 8](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/35-rc3-thumbnail-pictures-looking-skewed-on-internet-explorer-8/) * Thread Starter [Paddleman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/paddleman/) * (@paddleman) * [13 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/35-rc3-thumbnail-pictures-looking-skewed-on-internet-explorer-8/#post-3246131) * @ Lance: thanks re the Update re CSS fix in core @ Andrew: plugin=easy fancybox( with wp3.5 media gallery) Size of images are big as I didn’t know what I was doing when I uploaded the raw images (not related to plugin).

I tried that – and the result was spectacular. So thank you. * I need some advise on image upload strategy and how to render them. A [typical post](http://paddler.co.nz/kawhia/) I do might contain 200 MB of images!! * The page loads fine as the images are constrained to the theme width during the thumbnailing when I uploaded the images. * However, the Facnybox Lightbox is really struggling when you click on an image– as it needs to load an image that can be 5MB- 12MB in size. * Ideally what like to see is that: - (1) the page loads with all the thumbnails optimally resized. - (2) I then like to see the Lightbox open (when the humbnail is clicked) with the image width set to (say) 75% of the Browser width. - (3) If someone clicks on the lightbox image in the middle, the image then opens as an attachment at the native uncompressed resolution outside the theme. * Is this doable? * Given I have 50 images per post, I dont want to manaually resizing the images, make multiple copies and rename them. And I certainly dont want to manually set each thumbnail in the gallery and type up which are displayed and linked to for each image. * Any suggestions? * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Twenty Twelve] Twenty Twelve Theme: How do I make the menu two level](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-twelve-theme-how-do-i-make-the-menu-two-level/) * Thread Starter [Paddleman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/paddleman/) * (@paddleman) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-twelve-theme-how-do-i-make-the-menu-two-level/#post-3202322) * Drag and drop – why did not see it? * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[Twenty Twelve] IE7, IE8 Incompatibility Serious Issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ie7-ie8-incompatibility-fatal-flaw/) * [Paddleman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/paddleman/) * (@paddleman) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ie7-ie8-incompatibility-fatal-flaw/#post-7726364) * Thanks you jjust1 – Will try it.
