 * Send does not seem to work at all, Plugin or not, unless you add it in seperate
   code to the ‘Like’ button. Seems redundant when I should be able to add them 
   both in one iFrame.

 * Hey guys. Not too sure what is happening with your sites but here is the code
   that got post thumbnails working on mine.
 * This is in my functions.php file. Note the resource credit, you can visit that
   site for more info if this is still muddy:
 *     ```
       // Switching on support for post thumbnails/lead images - WordPress 2.9 onward. http://themesforge.com/wordpress/add-new-native-wordpress-post-thumbnails-to-your-theme/
         add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );
         add_image_size( 'single-post-thumbnail', 560, 372 ); // Inner post image dimensions
       ```
   
 * This is in my code where I need it. My view (list of articles):
 *     ```
       <?php if ( function_exists( 'add_theme_support' ) ) : ?>
         <?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) : ?>
           <div class="postthumb">
             <?php the_post_thumbnail('thumbnail'); ?>
           </div>
         <?php endif; ?>
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```
   
 * This is for the single post:
    `<?php the_post_thumbnail( 'single-post-thumbnail');?
   >`
 * I would rather not just post all of my code snippets up on here, but I obviously
   didn’t write the best how to in the couple of minutes that I blasted that up.
   This seems like the quickest way to show how I got it working. If after this 
   and the bits I mentioned above, it still doesn’t work, I unfortunately cannot
   help you guys. Sorry.
 * Please let me know how you make out with this.

 * What version of WP are you using rpophessagr? I found that anything within 3.0
   + doesn’t crop using the `add_image_size( 'featured', 200, 225, true );` statement.
   It’s almost as if it is being called to late??
 * Instead you can head to the Settings>Media area and adjust the thumbnail dimensions
   within there. Then upload an image to your post and you will see your specified
   dimension on the ‘thumbnail’ radio button.
 * Good luck. I wish someone had posted this when I was trying to work it out. But
   now I am attempting to help others. Hope this works for you.

 * Hey all. After many hours spent trying to get this to work, I was finally successful!
   The issue that I have found is that it appears in WP 3.0+ the `add_image_size`
   is called too late.
 * In order to get it to work within my dev version for a clients new blog, I simply
   turned on support for the thumbs using `add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );`
   within the functions.php. Then set it within the index.php using `<?php the_post_thumbnail('
   thumbnail'); ?>`.
 * After this you need to go to the Settings>Media and set the thumbnail size to
   the dimensions that you wish for it to have. I hope that this speeds up someone
   elses process because this is much to time consuming and there is a real lack
   of accurate documentation within the codex—quite dissappointing really.

 * I too am having the exact same issue. When attempting to import an old WordPress
   blogs content to the new development site I receive the error message “Invalid
   file. Please upload a valid WXR (WordPress eXtended RSS) export file.”
 * This makes no sense to me. The blog that I am exporting from is WordPress Version
   2.8.6 and the new development site is WordPress 3.0.3. One query that I have,
   which I cannot find information on, is that I am attempting to upload this to
   the local version of the site. Is that an issue?
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 * AJ
