 * Hello,
 * I’ve been trying to figure things out on my own and following the tutorials and
   numerous forum posts but I’ve hit a wall.
 * 1) For multiple comics on one site, how do you set up a “thumbnail” for the latest
   issue? I currently have the front page going to a static page where I have links
   going to the two categories that I will be using for the two comics I am going
   to be having. They can be seen at the following link:
    [http://www.osfgalatea.com/comictest/](http://www.osfgalatea.com/comictest/)
   That works fine. What I would prefer to have is an accompanying thumbnail of 
   the page over the link, which will update every time the most recent page of 
   that category/storyline is updated (an example of the look would be at [http://comicjams.net/](http://comicjams.net/)
   where it says “Newest Comicjam Pages”– I’m not sure if this is using comicpress
   to get the effect, but I was hoping we could get it.) Is there a way to do this?
   I would prefer not to have a static image there, but if I have no alternative
   I will do that…
 * 2) Along side that, is there a way to get the most recent date the comic was 
   updated by that link as well?
 * 3) With regards to the archive, I have set up a page for an archive at:
    [http://www.osfgalatea.com/comictest/archives/](http://www.osfgalatea.com/comictest/archives/)
 * I have used the shortcode of [comic-archive list=1 thumbnail=1 order=desc] on
   the page but all it returns is:
    Archives – 2014 |
 * There is nothing else set up on the page. What am I doing wrong?
 * Thank you for the help! I’ve been getting the hang of how this works, and solving
   my problems, but this is a wall I can’t get over.

 * Well I made some headway on the archives. I didn’t realize I had the “Year Archive”
   template on. So I can now play with the shortcodes to see what I get. Still haven’t
   figured out the other ones though.

 * The year archive template is for posts
 * You’re looking for the [comic-archive] shortcode, faqs are available on comiceasel.
