Hi,

the plugin uses already created thumbnails if they’re either set as a featured image or if it can find the thumbnail from the image tag in the post body(from the url or class name). Otherwise it uploads an image and adds it to the library.

If you’re willing to share* your blog url, I can try to figure out why isn’t the plugin using already created thumbnails.

* if you don’t want to share it publicly, you can contact us at [email protected].

Hi,

I uploaded the next version of the plugin which includes a possible fix for the problem to the development channel.
You can get it here:

Please try it out and thanks for reporting the problem.

Hi all,

version 2.8 has a new, improved thumbnailer.
Please give it a try.

In some cases it might need time to generate thumbnails in the background, so please don’t uninstall it immediately.

Hi Carter,

you can add related posts to the template if you disable “Auto Insert Related Posts” in Zemanta settings.

Something like this should work for what you’re trying to do:

<div class="post-content">
  <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry &raquo;'); ?>
  <div class="ccta-widget">
    <?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar')
      || !dynamic_sidebar('Contextual Call To Action') ) : ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
  </div>
  <?php zemanta_related_posts(); ?>

or you can move <?php zemanta_related_posts(); ?> directly above <?php comments_template(); ?>.

Hi,

it’s really strange that cloudfront is slow , but if it’s causing you problems you can copy the content of the file(momma.css) you your theme’s css(in wordpress dashboard under appearance->editor).

Hi,

can you please send me your modified plugin to [email protected] so I can see what’s going on.

Editor is calling wp_rp_ajax_load_articles_callback for recommendations so if you haven’t changed it, it should work.

Thanks.

Hi,

there is no stable api in the plugin that would do that,
which means we might break it between versions, but if you’re willing to risk that, you have a couple of options.

wp_rp_fetch_posts_and_title()
Returns

array(
	"posts" => [array of post objects],
	"title" => [title for related posts]
);

Or if you want even more control use one or all of this functions:

wp_rp_fetch_random_posts() // returns an array of random post objects
wp_rp_fetch_related_posts() // related posts calculated based only on tags
wp_rp_fetch_related_posts_v2() // related posts based on tags, categories, title and text

But again, this might change in future versions.

Hi,

I pushed a small bugfix for invalid html output. It effects both mobile and desktop but it’s possible that mobile browser are more sensitive.

Since I couldn’t reproduce the problem I can’t say for sure that it will solve the problem, but please give it a try.
