All my thumbs have gone – why?

  • Hello,

    I cannot understand this problem. All my thumbs are showing as:
    noimg.png

    I went into the theme single.php and found this code:

    <img src=”<?php $values = get_post_custom_values(“thumbnail_url”); echo $values[0]; ?>” width=”120px” height=”90px” alt=”<?php the_title(); ?>” />
    <?php } else { ?>
    <img src=”<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/noimg.png” width=”120px” height=”90px” alt=”<?php the_title(); ?>” />

    If I understand it says, if the thumb is not found, use:
    <?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/noimg.png

    Where are all the $values = get_post_custom_values(“thumbnail_url”); getting posted? Where and how can I change the values in order to have the script looking in the right place?

    my site is here:

    Any idea please?

    Thank you,

    Bambi

    Did you give your posts a custom field with a key (name) “thumbnail_url” and the value of an image url?

    Since this is a commercial theme with its own functionalities and support system, I recommend you contact the theme developer for assistance:

    Thanks Keesiemeijer,

    I am having problem contacting the maker of the theme at the moment, this is why I came here for a bit of help.

    All I am trying to understand is that the custom code is actually linked to the theme itself and not a wordpress pluging, am I correct?

    Now could you please tell me how to set in wordpress a custom field? If I could do that then I could probably reverse the problem.

    Thanks,

    You can give a post a custom field when you edit or create a “Post” or “Page”.

    Look at the”Screen Options” on the top right If you don’t see the “Custom Fields” metabox on the Edit Post screen . As of WordPress version 3.1, some screen options on the Post & Page edit Administration Screens are hidden by default. Custom Fields are hidden by default if they have not been used before.

    Thank you so much keesiemeijer

    You cracked it my friend!

    What happened is the theme custom names have changed their name, I am now replacing their name one by one, it should work soon ??

    Thanks again!
