In reply to: Post Icon plugin??Yeah thanks that worked, though in the edit post area under the bit where it says “The currently assigned preview picture (does not reflect any changes made below)” the post picture no longer shows up – but I suppose I can live with that =)
I wonder why the backslash in front the specified directory was being taken off? If it had been on then it doesn’t matter on which page the picture is, it still would of appeared eg ‘/postpics/’ as opposed to ‘postpics/’ so it would go from the root domain and there wouldn’t have been any need for editing the onclick=”…. bit
ah well, at least it works =)
EDIT: haha that got me thinking, so I changed the code you gave me from:
onclick=”document.post.’.$meta_form_value.’.value=\’http://www.popsacrifice.com/’.substr($dir,3).$file.’\’
to:
onclick=”document.post.’.$meta_form_value.’.value=\’/’.substr($dir,3).$file.’\’
you can see instead of putting ‘http://www.popsacrifice.com’ in front of the post pic source it puts in the “missing” backslash ‘/’ which achieves the same effect but means the picture now shows in the admin area.

In reply to: Post Icon plugin??cool thanks for that, Ill give it a shot – last question that I’ll probably be bothering you with:
Ive tried the plugin and it worked great. I put a test pic in the folder (‘postpics’ which was a sub directory from the main site folder) and changed the plugin code to scan the pic directory eg:
function select_meta_image() {
global $post_ID;$dir = ‘../postpics/’;
and made a test post. Now the pic showed on the main page of the site (in the source code it was “postpics/pic.jpg)”) however once I went to the posts page the pic wouldn’t show and all I got was the alt text ‘preview page’ ie http://www.popsacrifice.com/tv-news/2005/08/30/test-page/
Im not all that good with php (I tried changing it myself but I kept getting errors), so how do i make the plugin code put the image source from the root domain eg popsacrifice.com/postpics/ ?

In reply to: Post Icon plugin??Im reading it now, as well as checking out the source code for the plugin, its looking good. I have a couple of questions:
is the directory that has to hold images for the post icons /wp-upload/prepic/ by default?
also I notice that in your sidebar of the site that you have a ‘Featured Post’ section which has the preview picture for that post in it. What I would like to know is there some special code that relies on the plugin to pull up that info, as I was looking to do something similar on my site in my sidebar eg have the 3 most recent articles in the sidebar with their pics…
also in the sidebar the preview pics dimesions are 100px X 100px, yet when you click the link to the article the preview picture in the article is 467px X 135px? Im just curious as to how you managed to call up a different sized preview pic for the featured post section in the sidebar than the pic in the actual post thats featured?

In reply to: Mad About TechI really like it, nice and simple but looks really nice
not so sure about the header image though – I don’t think the dark green suits the overall site theme

how did you get your post images to align all differently like that?
In my posts, I can only put images above the post text and center the image. If I want to align the image to the left next to the text in the post, the image messes up the post layer structure!!??
any help would be greatly appreciated

In reply to: different catergory post stylesthanks logista, that looks to be right tho Ill have to give it a try to be sure
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: different catergory post stylesalphaoide – I mean on the front page of the site (as well as any where else on the site if need be). So say I had a catergory called ‘news’ I would like any posts in that catergory to have a green background while on the front page, any other catergory posts would have the default background as set by the stylesheet. I just want my ‘news’ posts to stand out on the front page above the rest
