 * Hello, it’s a nice plugin but is there any solution to have an ability to have
   all the thumbnails automatic resized?
    For example I don’t want to input height
   AND width pixels. I would like to have height e.g. at 100px only and not width.
   So, it could calculate automatically the width based on height. Now, all the 
   images are deformed. Thanks.

 * Right now they are scaled based on width which is more natural. It is possible
   to make height as a base. I’ll try to implemented a choice in new version.

 * Thank you Frank for your prompt reply!
    Ok, I see. It’s ok. Another thing that
   I think it needs correction is that when you press the full post to read it normally,
   it has also the small thumbnail at top-left corner which is not necessary. Is
   it possible somehow to remove this? Thank you again!!

 * Ok, don’t worry, I installed plugin “Thumbnail For Excerpts” and I found a solution.

 * Check version 1.0.7 which was released today. All mentioned changes are there.
   If you don’t want the thumbnail being displayed for post’s full content just 
   uncheck the box “Content thumbnails enabled”.

 * Yes, you are right. It’s working!
    But for me it’s working properly only for 
   excerpts thumbnails and not with content thumbnails. I had to change the code
   from theme’s original index.php
 * `<?php the_content();?>`
 * to
 *     ```
       <?php the_excerpt() ?>
       <p><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">(read more…)</a></p>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * So far it’s almost as good as “Thumbnail For Excerpts”. If I am not mistaken,
   I think that “tfe” is slightly faster than yours but yours have easy settings
   for some configurations.

 * Could you tell me more about what is not working with content thumbnails?

 * I don’t know. Maybe I have already made changes in the files – functions.php,
   etc and now it doesn’t work anymore with content and I don’t remember what were
   the changes. It’s probably my fault because in the beginning it was working partially
   with content thumbnails.

 * OK, I revert it using an old file index.php that I found and now it’s working
   with content thumbnails as before but it’s the same again. When I press the click
   to read more, it’s the same thumbnail again in top-left corner. I’m using the
   latest version 1.0.7 but unfortunately I cannot share my website here. I could
   send it to an email because my I would prefer not others to see until it’s done.

 * If you have “Content thumbnails enabled” unchecked and your full post is being
   displayed via the_content and you still have thumbnails then check your theme
   if the_content is preceded by the_post_thumbnail(). If it is then remove it.

 * I unchecked “Content thumbnails enabled” but now I don’t have thumbnails at all,
   neither in frontpage, neither in full post. My theme supports them using featured
   posts but something is not done right. My theme is called maximum. You can download
   and try it from here:
 * [http://fearlessflyer.com/themes/maximum](http://fearlessflyer.com/themes/maximum)
 * But use it only if you want for yourself. I have found solution to my problem.
 * Thank you for your help. It’s nice to see this support from the developers!

 * Ok. The only change necessary is to replace in index.php the_content() with the_excerpt().
   In single.php leave the_content(). Uncheck “Content thumbnails enabled”. All 
   done. The theme will use the_content() in single post and the_excerpt() in the
   list of posts.. Single post will use the_content() and you’ve disabled thumbnails
   for content. No thumbnail in single post. In index.php which displays list of
   post after the change to the_excerpt() it will display thumbnails.
