• Hi

    I just realized that if I click (any) of the categories I’ve put up on my blog, no pictures are shown in the list…I’ll have to click an entry before the pics are shown…Why is that? Is that how it normally is?!

    E.g. my music category: Madsenblog – Music/Videos

    Thx.

  • I should think whatever page template is being used for the categories (archive.php I would guess) is using the_excerpt, rather than the_content. You could change that or track down the excerpt reloaded plugin which allows images.

    Hi Ian

    Thx. for your reply…I’m not very experienced with this so please bear with me. I’ve looked at the Archive Template but can’t locate neither _excerpt nor the _content, -unless it’s the one in line 2 you’re referring to?! You write that: “You could change that or track down the excerpt reloaded plugin which allows images.”….Sorry, this might be a daft quest., but should I just install a pluin named “excerpt reloaded”?!

    This is what my “Archive template” looks like….I’m running WP 1.5.2 and use the Kubrick template by the way…

    <?php get_header(); ?>

    <div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">

    <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

    <?php $post = $posts[0]; // Hack. Set $post so that the_date() works. ?>
    <?php /* If this is a category archive */ if (is_category()) { ?>
    <h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for the '<?php echo single_cat_title(); ?>' Category</h2>

    <?php /* If this is a daily archive */ } elseif (is_day()) { ?>
    <h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></h2>

    <?php /* If this is a monthly archive */ } elseif (is_month()) { ?>
    <h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('F, Y'); ?></h2>

    <?php /* If this is a yearly archive */ } elseif (is_year()) { ?>
    <h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('Y'); ?></h2>

    <?php /* If this is a search */ } elseif (is_search()) { ?>
    <h2 class="pagetitle">Search Results</h2>

    <?php /* If this is an author archive */ } elseif (is_author()) { ?>
    <h2 class="pagetitle">Author Archive</h2>

    <?php /* If this is a paged archive */ } elseif (isset($_GET['paged']) && !empty($_GET['paged'])) { ?>
    <h2 class="pagetitle">Blog Archives</h2>

    <?php } ?>

    <div class="navigation">
    <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('« Previous Entries') ?></div>
    <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries »') ?></div>
    </div>

    <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    <div class="post">
    <h3 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
    <small><?php the_time('l, F jS, Y') ?></small>

    <div class="entry">
    <?php the_excerpt() ?>
    </div>

    <p class="postmetadata">Posted in <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php edit_post_link('Edit','','|'); ?> <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?>

    </div>

    <?php endwhile; ?>

    <div class="navigation">
    <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('« Previous Entries') ?></div>
    <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries »') ?></div>
    </div>

    <?php else : ?>

    <h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/searchform.php'); ?>

    <?php endif; ?>

    </div>

    <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    If you still need this, you have:
    <div class="entry">
    <?php the_excerpt() ?>
    </div>

    try
    <div class="entry">
    <?php the_content() ?>
    </div>
    instead
