In reply to: Media files sort order issueWith version 4, I was able to click the media library link from within a post, then choose an option to only see media attached to the post. In this view, I could drag my uploaded images around to create a new display order.
I haven’t found how to do this with version 5.
I’m pretty sure it will NOT remove old thumbnails for outdated sizes. Those would have to be manually cleaned up if you were worried about the space they take.
I’ve been trying for a while, and resetting the query after the first article with an offset works for the page, but IS still picks up at article 7, not 8.
I can increase the ‘max posts per page’ setting to 7, so it starts at the right post (8), but then it of course displays 7 more, and puts the page layout askew. 🙂
I even tried a new query AFTER the posts to try to hand-feed IS the right starting point and post count, but no dice. 🙂
I’ll give it a rest for now, but thanks for your help.
Ahhh! I was kind of ‘clever’ and the feature happens outside of a while loop, then 2-7 are generated within a while loop without a new query.
I’ll try recoding it with a new query between the feature and loop and report back.
ps: thanks!
I threw your code in my functions.php file and it worked beautifully.. thanks!
(jamo, skip that first “<?php” when you paste Chris’ code in)
I looked carefully at the module, and it doesn’t seem to be a setting variable for that string. Hopefully in a future release?
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
My theme does something pretty in the header with featured images, so I’d have to recode THAT function if I used featured images the right way. 🙂
I agree with xsreality. I don’t mind the phantom files, but for my ancient blog with 240 posts, very few posts share a month. That’s a LOT of virtual XML files!

In reply to: [XML Sitemap Generator for Google] Some questions about last versionThe sitemap is no longer written to a file on your server. From the changelog:
New in Version 4.0 (2014-03-30):
No static files anymore, sitemap is created on the fly!
Not sure why the dev went this way, but it works fine for me!

In reply to: [Automatically Set 1st Image as Featured] Won't install…?Added sort method below to the image selection, and now it’s ALMOST perfect:
‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’,
When it can batch process all my posts with a click, THEN it’ll be perfect. 🙂

In reply to: [Automatically Set 1st Image as Featured] Won't install…?The plugin in packaged poorly. The PHP file in the trunk needs to be manually installed into your plugins directory. Then it will automatically set a seemingly random image as the featured image.
Not perfect, but still handy.
Glad I could contribute ever so slightly… I already switched my themes over to large. 🙂

In reply to: [After the Deadline] [Plugin: After the Deadline] Why the change to jetpack?Dane, if you have a support problem, define the problem. You haven’t yet.
If you don’t like automattic glomming all of their plugin properties into one large hot mess in an effort to increase their brand and monetize their products, then go start a blog about it.

In reply to: [Jetpack - WP Security, Backup, Speed, & Growth] Can't activate PhotonThat would be the problem. My themes tend to rely on gallery images being called by custom loops.
Now I have to see if the API allows for custom calls… Thanks!

In reply to: [Jetpack - WP Security, Backup, Speed, & Growth] Can't activate PhotonI just verified that Photon has been enabled over at http://bluemoonrising.com for a while now. I’ve tried it with all other plugins disabled with no better luck.
My theme is very old and heavily customized. Are there any scripts or other elements I need to add to it?
