 * Hi,
 * I can’t get the thumbnails to show from the rss feed that I’ve selected. It sais
   that it will show the thumbnails ‘if configured’ in WordPress. Could you be a
   bit clearer on that please? How can I configure that in WordPress?
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * Just to add to that, I added this to my first blog’s theme’s php file to make
   sure that the feed has thumbnails in the feed;
 * function featuredtoRSS($content) {
    global $post; if ( has_post_thumbnail( $post-
   >ID ) ){ $content = ” . get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, ‘thumbnail’, array(‘
   style’ => ‘float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;’ ) ) . ” . $content; } return $content;}
 * add_filter(‘the_excerpt_rss’, ‘featuredtoRSS’);
    add_filter(‘the_content_feed’,‘
   featuredtoRSS’);
 * but that doesn’t work. What can I do? I’m very confused as to why you didn’t 
   add instructions to do this, as I can’t find them any where on the net, apart
   from that code above.
