• Hi there,

    Love the plugin. I’ve got a question about layout in v1.5.

    Currently, when using a thumbnail + title + excerpt, everything is left justified, the thumbnail is on top, the title is below the thumbnail and the excerpt is below the title. Here is a “before” screenshot: https://goo.gl/IXUp8

    I would like to have the title to the right middle of the thumbnail and the excerpt left justified below the thumbnail + title. Here is a “desired” mockup of what I’m looking to do (including word wrap): https://goo.gl/nPzCp.

    I’ve seen this done in other, less elegant, plugins and, after futzing with the code with my limited programing php skills, I’m asking for help.

    Is there a simple mod to the php file that will allow me to achieve the desired effect? I’ll worry about css stuff later!

    Thanks so much for your assistance.

  • It seems to me like you might actually have a CSS issue. In general, you could probably make this work the way you want by floating the images left. If you’d like some help, please post a link to the page where you are using the plugin so I can take a look at the source code.

    Thanks for the input.

    To check to see if it’s a CSS issue, I created a brand new WP Twenty Twelve blog with one post, added an excerpt, then added the UPW into the sidebar. It looks the same as the images I included above, so it’s not the CSS from my main project. I tried messing with “float: left” in the CSS but couldn’t get it to look the way I wanted as shown in the “desired” link above. You can check out the results here.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreiciated. Thanks for your help.

    I’d suggest keep working with the css. You can modify the plugin code but you’ll have to reapply your changes any time you update the plugin.

    Try floating left “upw-image” and clear left the date and excerpt. That should be roughly the layout you want.
