Title: Image Selector Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Image Selector * [jellibeanjournals@hotmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jellibeanjournalshotmailcom/) * (@jellibeanjournalshotmailcom) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-selector-1/) * Love the style this plugin displays, but it picks up random images, even if I’ve set a featured image. Sometimes it displays my blog signature image. Help!

Reactivated now! It looks like it’s not showing at all now though. Weird. When I’ve got that page set as the static frontpage it works, but since it’s not bringing up images properly, I don’t want to set it as the frontpage yet.

Sometimes the content element (div/span/p) is some format that the plugin don’t understand so the first image method can’t find the first image. * To automatically generate media tool you can use this : [http://wordpress.org/plugins/media-tools/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/media-tools/) * and after activation go to tools -> media tool and select “set featured image”( image below) [http://tonjoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/media-tool.png](http://tonjoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/media-tool.png) * Anyway, we just give the plugin little update so the featured image will center. * [http://tonjoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/tidy.jpg](http://tonjoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/tidy.jpg) * [http://tonjoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/easy-custom-auto-excerpt-update.zip](http://tonjoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/easy-custom-auto-excerpt-update.zip) * regards * Plugin Author [todiadiyatmo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/todiadiatmo/) * (@todiadiatmo) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-selector-1/#post-4331376) * Sorry i mean to automatically generate featured image you can use media tool plugin * Thread Starter [jellibeanjournals@hotmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jellibeanjournalshotmailcom/) * (@jellibeanjournalshotmailcom) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-selector-1/#post-4331377) * Thanks, Todi. I’ll update this afternoon. The only other modifications you may want to consider with this plugin are: 1. Making the “read more” come at the end of a sentence or period so it doesn’t cut in the middle of a sentence. 2. Allowing users to enable excerpts on their homepage below a full post or a few full posts- such as add an option to choose how many full posts show up before the excerpts begin. It’s nice to show off the most recent post in full and the older ones below as excerpts. Just an idea. * Thanks again for the plugin updates. I will definitely be sharing about the plugin because I like it alot! * Thread Starter [jellibeanjournals@hotmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jellibeanjournalshotmailcom/) * (@jellibeanjournalshotmailcom) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-selector-1/#post-4331378) * Tried the newest version and it did some crazy doubling to the excerpts.
