quickfire84 Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Ok, I wrote a code for using custom fields to display images, and im using it to display thumbnails so i have the code grab it and send it threw the TimThumb php image resizing script to make the image smaller for the front page, everything works except the TimThumb, it doesn't work for me. this is the code to grab the img url from the custom field: <?php query_posts('category_name=blog&showposts=5'); if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post(); // check for thumbnail $thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Thumbnail', $single = true); // check for thumbnail class $thumb_class = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Thumbnail Class', $single = true); // check for thumbnail alt text $thumb_alt = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Thumbnail Alt', $single = true); ?> <div class="blogArea" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"> <div id="blogThumb"> <img src="<?php echo bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/scripts/timthumb.php?src=/<?php echo $thumb; ?>&w=100&h=65&zc=1&q=100" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="left" width="100px" height="65px" /> </div> <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> <div class="date"><?php the_time('M d, Y') ?> <!-- by <?php the_author() ?> --></div> <?php the_content('Read more»'); ?> </div> <?php endwhile; ?> This is the little bit of code that takes the image url from the custom field and puts it into the timthumb script <?php echo bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/scripts/timthumb.php?src=/<?php echo $thumb; ?>&w=100&h=65&zc=1&q=100" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="left" width="100px" height="65px" /> and as you can see here http://cardarello.com the images never show up But in this theme from Elegant Themes uses the same type of custom field coding and put it threw the timthumb and works fine.. http://www.elegantthemes.com/preview/Influx/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
