 * I love your plug in but have not been able to get the thumbnail to work. I’m 
   using a theme that supports “featured images” the featured images shows up at
   the single post, but not when I use display-posts on the main page. Your previous
   solution did not help in my situation. Hope you can help. Thank you.

 * Have you tried switching to the default TwentyEleven theme to confirm it isn’t
   a theme-related issue? Can you post the shortcode you’re using?

 * **UPDATED: My error – I had NOT set the image I wanted as “the featured image”
   in the post. Thank you!!!**

 * I can’t get the thumbnails to display either. I’m using this shortcode:
 * `[display-posts category="events" image_size="thumbnail" include_excerpt="true"
   wrapper="div" posts_per_page="5" include_date="true"]`
 * on this site/page: [http://willimanticfood.coop/whats-new/events/](http://willimanticfood.coop/whats-new/events/)
 * I tried it using the twentyeleven theme, but they still don’t work.
 * Thank you for this plugin! 🙂
