 * Hi,
 * Everything works great except the thumbnails. The theme support it and I’ve added
   a picture to the post.
 * Any idea ?
 * Thanks

 * My only suggestion: Are you setting the images as featured images?

 * Yes… but my client do not want to use this feature. So my problem is no more 
   except for others users who have the same bug.

 * Imma gonna bump this up.
 * Anyone have general advice for those of us for whom the “Show Post Thumbnail”
   feature isn’t working right out the box?
 * I installed the the widget, added it to my sidebar, and tried it with all my 
   categories, in which all posts have images inserted through the “featured image”
   feature. But…nothin.

 * I have the same problem here. Thumbnails do not appear as stated, whether they
   are set as a “featured image” or not.
    It would be great if someone could work
   this out.

 * Here’s what I did, you. It’s better than Category Post’s image capabilities anyways.
   Better like a fox.
 * I use the “Get the Image” plugin.
 * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/get-the-image](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/get-the-image)
 * You have remove the image stuff from the plugin and replace it with Get the Image
   code. It was a little tricky for me. But it works.
 * Now, ‘f’ it. I can link, associate, or embed or whatever images on posts and 
   Get the Image takes care of the Featured Image treatment.

 * I got [Super Recent Posts](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/super-recent-posts/)
   plugin as a replacement. Does the exact same job without all the problems, and
   it’s still free.
