Irrelevant Thumnails

Update. ?? Still not works.

Update:
I’ve learned from my latest experience that images of posts which were assigned in the “Related” block manually shows correctly!

Only random post thumbnails can’t be shown. ??

Hey Anastasia, sorry for the late reply — again!

I’m sorry for the confusion here, but I’m really curious (and I really want us to be on the same page here), but what do you mean when you said “related block” vs. the “random post thumbnails”? Do you have a block of related posts separated from your random posts? Have you made any code changes so that our plugin would show random related posts? Or am I just super-confused right now? ??

Also — you mentioned in one of your previous replies that you “just open “add thumbnail” modal window at “edit post” admin page and drag image in it, then save”, when inserting your images in your blog posts. Would you mind sending us a screenshot of where you apply those changes, since we weren’t able to find it in our ‘Edit’ page?

Finally — there’s no need to change the sizes of your thumbnails in the function.php file, since you can do it all in your plugins settings page. But you will have to re-enable your themes, since the ‘Customize CSS’ window is missing out, if the themes are disabled (as you currently have it).

I’m currently guessing here, but I strongly believe that this last thing might be the main cause of your missing thumbnails problem (although I could also be in the wrong, who knows).

Does this helps you out a bit? Let me know what’s up & I promise we’ll respond more promptly over here! We’re eager to get this sorted! ??

Looking forward to your reply! Take care & have a nice day!

Best,
Silvo

Or am I just super-confused right now? ??

No-no, it’s just me – i’m not fluent in English, so my wording can be confusing sometimes. ?? Please sorry for the mess! ??

what do you mean when you said “related block”

I mean “Related posts” block in my single post page.
For example, a blue one here. Two posts in this block, which I’ve manually set by “edit related posts” orange front-end button, show us its post thumbnails, two other posts (these posts were picked automatically with your plugin core) show random image instead of its original thumbnails.

“random post thumbnails”

I mean thumbnails of the posts which were not manually set by me for the “related posts” block for the post.
I found not very correct name for the thing, I know. :)))

Would you mind sending us a screenshot of where you apply those changes, since we weren’t able to find it in our ‘Edit’ page?

I think everybody add thumbnails in wordpress this way… Maybe it’s my wording again. ?? I mean this way.

there’s no need to change the sizes of your thumbnails in the function.php file

I need it for my theme for every loop. ?? But, of course, I would like to have the same thumbnail size in my “related posts” blocks all over the site so I set the same size in the plugin settings.

And thanks for your attention! ??

Hey, big thanks for your detailed response and there’s really no need to apologize for anything, I’m just glad we’re on the same page here (which we now are)! I appreciate you’re extra explanation here, really! ??

But let’s just try it this way, to see if it gets any better, since I’m really curious if this will work.

If you go to your plugin setting you will notice a message just next to your ‘Custom Size Thumbnails’ option:

“If you want to use custom sizes, override theme’s CSS rules in the Custom CSS section under Theme Settings above.”

So to do this, re-enable your themes, choose the ‘Plain (your own css)’ theme and make the necessary code adjustments in the ‘Customize CSS’ window. I think your own theme & the loops will stay intact with this one, so no worries on that end.

Here’s a link with some useful help on how to do that:

Let me know how it went or if you stumbled upon some problems along the way, since I’m eager to hear about the results!

Take care & have a nice weekend ahead!

Best,
Silvo
