In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Images Not Processing on Training PagePS – in case you’re wondering, all of the posts with featured images are images that I saved out of the articles, and manually inserted as the featured images – a time-consuming process I was hoping to alleviate with your plug-in.

In reply to: [MyCurator Content Curation] Images Not Processing on Training PageThanks, Mike – I’ve been playing around with this further and it happens on every page I try to process, always the same as described above. I have tried all sorts of websites on this – probably a couple dozen by now. Always the same problem.

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/07/your-money/for-retirees-a-second-career.html?ref=your-money&_r=0I’ve decided that for my purposes, using the Option to publish the full page works better for me than editing/curating excerpts. I’m finding that the editing/curating route doesn’t always easily include links back to the original content, whereas publishing the full piece includes all the credits and references that lead back to the original material (and is faster).
Also, when I use that Option, the images in the original post ARE placed in my post, although the Post Editor only shows the MyCurator excerpt in the editing window. If I ignore that and Preview or Publish, I get the whole article with all the links and images.
All good, except that I don’t get the opportunity to CHOOSE for that first image to be the Feature Image – which is what I need. My theme uses a Magazine format that relies on the Featured Images, and if there are no Featured Images, I get placeholder graphics, which is unacceptable. See here: http://www.boomerreinvention.com/magazine/
FWIW, click on the placeholder thumbnails on the page and you’ll see the published articles with embedded images.
Again, even though I have set the Option for the first image to be automatically set as Featured Image, this does not happen.
BTW, if I use the Option to not publish the full page, and use the Post Editor to curate the text, I cannot get the image(s) to show up in the Published piece at all – it will not include them.
Is this a Plug-in conflict?
I am using:
Akismet
Facebook
Jetpack
ManageWP
Seedprod Coming Soon Pro
Wordpress SEO
WP3 Total Cache
WPedit
WP Jump menuIs it a Theme issue? I am using Enfold by Kriesi from Themeforest. (http://www.kriesi.at) Would you need to see any of the coded pages?
Thanks for your help!
