Hmm, I tried changing it out as you suggested and it didn’t appear to make any difference. I wish I was more savvy in this particular code and syntax, as I’m rather new to WP and the way it works. If anyone has any further suggestions on what to do or knows of any good sites for learning the WP code, it’d be appreciated.

Also, thank you for the heads up on WP 2.3 – is there a place I could go to see the new sort of variables being used in 2.3? It doesn’t seem the author of this plug-in is updating it anymore, so I may need to do it myself.

Much appreciated, all!

I’m bumping this back up just for the sake of having lost time during waiting for the filter to let this post through. Please take no offense.

Ahah, well I’ll chill now. Thanks.

For anyone with a future problem along these lines, be sure to check and make sure that the file attempting to be turned into a thumbnail using the built-in method; make sure the file is not a .gif but a .jpg – as was my problem. I’m not sure why – possibly because it can’t thumbnail a color indexed file – but .gif files will not work for this.

Bump. No one has any ideas?

Honestly, I just can’t make sense of the code in this plugin. I simply cannot find where everything is brought together to finally echo the code which outputs the image. If someone else can take a few moments to download the plugin I originally talked about and see if it can be understood, I’d really appreciate it. I’ve been staring at this code for awhile now, and I’ve only managed to work up a decent headache.

Thanks for the help injate, and thanks in advance to anyone else willing to help.

I did try this, however the code’s not quite so simple as to explicitly output the image by conventional means. Also, I can’t simply just replace it, as that would mean I can no longer use the other image types; I’d prefer to throw in a If…Then statement to deal with the unique .swf file type.

Edit: I did manage to find the Kimili Flash Embed plugin. This does take care of one problem, but editing the Category plugin to include this new plugin is beyond me. So, help is still very much appreciated.

When I try using the code azaozz provided, it works to the extent that it displays the link for the Home page in the list of Pages, however it also removes the indent arrows. It seems pretty straight forward; am I just doing something silly?
