Hi guys
Hope this is in the correct place.
I have my blog setup in such a way that a large image comes before the title post and body text. However, in heist I deleted my old posts which contained the name for the custom field.
I put the custom field back in but now this image wont appear anymore. All i get is Winter Dark thumbnail with the text underneath
Anyone got any ideas what is going on?

Just looking at your code, the images do not have a source path....It is currently empty. So you need to fix the code to reference where your image resides.
Hi
Which piece of code is that, and how do I sort that out?
That should be corrected in your posts of the admin panel...
Currently your code reads....<img width="730" alt="Winter Dark thumbnail" src=""/>
If you look at the src="", that means its empty and should contain the path and file to the image you want to load.
Im sorry, not really understanding. Are you staying i have broken links hence the images are not showing?
I am saying your src path doesn't point to any images at the current moment therefore you are not seeing any image.
got you. well im placing the image source URL in the custom field (this was what was done previously) , but obviously not working. Not exactly sure how to sort this when im doing everything i did previously...
Well without seeing the admin panel its hard for me to judge what the issue is but for a quickfix, you can simply put the img src inside the post....
Yea tried that, nothing. That was actually my original question before messing up this custom field thing. Images would not display in the post either...
And you looked at your custom fields making sure you have a key/value pair? For example you have a custom field named "Image" and a value of a url pointing to the images?
Where are your images located in your directory hiearachy?
this is what happend when i place a img scr http://www.organic-tote-bags.com/blog/?p=73
This image is suppose to be on top of th date. Also this image wont show reveal itself on the main home of the blog...
I looked at my index.php to find out what the heck the thing was called
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="rgtcol">
<div class="content">
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post">
<img src="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "Thumbnail", true); ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?> <?php _e('thumbnail'); ?>" width="730" />
<div style="margin-bottom:5px;"></div>
Would seem to be thumbnail - the system accepted that. With the value, i am uploading correctly sized images from wp-content/uploads/2009 - The URL displays the correct image so link not broken...
OH MY WORD - Just sorted it. The NAME in in the custom field was spelt with lower cap t instead of capital T (Thumbnails) - Oops...
Ok, now my next issue is pasting normal images when im trying to write a post. It wont show up on the main blog but does here http://www.organic-tote-bags.com/blog/?p=73
Any ideas?
You have to look at the source page AFTER the page has rendered. Thats the only way you'll know if a link has a path or not....After you load the page, right click and view source and you will see the image link has no path/file.....
I see it in the main blog and in the single page...
Sorry, wrong page

In your post, if you put this inside an image tag, I am sure it will work..
src="http://www.organic-tote-bags.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/6brtc_biscuit.jpg"
Is does individual page http://www.organic-tote-bags.com/blo...nce=d80cfeb2fc
But here it doe not http://www.organic-tote-bags.com/blog
Think maybe the custom field is somehow effecting the image on the main page?
No, the custom field works inside the loop and what I am telling you to do is put it inside the individual post.
yup, tried this previously and tried again in image tag within the actual post. Again works here http://www.organic-tote-bags.com/blog/?p=81 but not on main site...
Try making another custom field like you did with the winter dark image....
It was actually to do with the php code. Had to change the_excerpt with the_content
Works all good now. Many thanks for your help dude
Hey, you solved the problem...kudos for you!!
