[Plugin: Recent Posts Slider] broken images FIXED

yeah I already rode it. But I don’t know where to override it.
Anyway here’s my site: szelesmuhely.org

Solved: It didn’t show the post’s image..just if I set a featured image

Glad to hear it, szelesmuhely. Strange though — in my tests, the plugin has pulled an attached image on posts that have no featured image.

Hey Electro, why don’t you make a new plugin based on this one? It’s apparently been abandoned by the author. There seems to be some inconsistency in the way it works, I could never get it to work for me on one site, on another, it works fine. If you are going to put any work into this plugin to correct the issues it has, you should get paid, so you should have your own plugin.

hi,

this is kind of strange. i downloaded and installed the plugin. everything works but the image doesnt show. i checked my codes and i couldnt find :

$rps_img_src_path = "/".$post_details[$p]['post_first_img']['0'];

instead, i found that they were already mended

$rps_img_src_path = $post_details[$p]['post_first_img']['0'];

but still the image doesnt show. just the the slider with the bg.

also its on a subdomain. if that helps. would love to show the link here but unfortunately i dont think i can do that

@fariskassim, do what I did. Check the HTML output on your blog. See what it’s doing. Test the anchor link (see my first post above).

Is that link broken — probably is. Maybe you need that preceeding slash after all?

@odinkinder, maybe I should do that one of these days. It’s a nice plugin, but seems to have some bugs related to servers. Behaves differently on some installs.

Hi, electrolund.

I have same problem which is about showing images. I only get excerps not images which is set featured image Can you help me with this issue? Or can you send me the right version of recent post slider.php file?

Thanks advance,

haha thanks for the reply.

but it somehow works now and i got it figured out. seems like it’ll only pull featured images that are uploaded to the media section of wordpress.

initially i was using an url of an image hosted somewhere else.

cheers.

Nice post. I got this running on my tech site ??

I am running into the same problem. I have made the necessary changes from the first post and I have fixed another problem with the slider (Alt text was different), but the images still do not show up.

I am using a multisite, if that helps. I checked the source code, amd the image path doesn’t even show up. So I know its in the php file not recognizing the image file somewhere.

The image file is not located under “uploads/2012/12….” it is located under “blogs.dir/BLOG_ID/files/2012/12/….” If that helps too.

Here’s the site, I’m working on. weekly.stlukesblogs.org/

@steponafish, sorry for the LONG delayed reply. Looks like you switched to Orbit Slider? How do you like it?
