How do I make the small preview picture that I have created appear on the posts page?
For example: http://majormultimediauk.com/stylerevo/?cat=3 I want a tiny image to appear to the left of the posts.
Thank you! Alex.

Hey,
in archive.php replace following code lines:
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>with:
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); // check if we got a previe picture, and which one should be taken // (image resizing with "tim thumb" on? then we can take the big one and resize it) $preview_small = get_post_meta($post->ID, "_preview_small", true); $preview_medium = get_post_meta($post->ID, "_preview_medium", true); $preview_big = get_post_meta($post->ID, "_preview_big", true); //defaults: $preview = $preview_medium; $link_url = $preview_big; $lightbox = 'singlepost'; $link = true; //change if necessary: // resizing? => take next sized picture if ($k_option['general']['tim'] == "1" && $preview_medium == "") { $preview = $preview_big; } // no bigpicture? => no lightbox if ($preview_big == "") { $lightbox = ''; $link = true; $link_url = get_permalink(); } // the kriesi_build_image function used here checks if the image should be resized. // the function is located in framework/helper_functions $preview = kriesi_build_image(array('url'=>$preview, 'height'=> '273', 'width'=> '610', 'lightbox'=>$lightbox, 'link'=>$link, 'link_url'=>$link_url )); ?>Posted 1 year ago # -

Hey,
are you certain you've cleared your cache after applying Dude's code? It looks legit, though I haven't tested it.Posted 1 year ago # -
Yeah, just tried on my iPhone too, different browsers, different computer and flushed DNS through CMD :(

Tried having a go but I broke the site haha - Don't know PHP.
I restored the archive file although here is the code.
<?php
global $more, $k_options;
get_header();?>
<div id="main"><div id="content">
<h2><?php /* If this is a category archive */ if (is_category()) { ?>
Archive for <?php echo single_cat_title(); ?><?php /* If this is a daily archive */ } elseif (is_day()) { ?>
Archive for <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?><?php /* If this is a monthly archive */ } elseif (is_month()) { ?>
Archive for <?php the_time('F, Y'); ?><?php /* If this is a yearly archive */ } elseif (is_year()) { ?>
Archive for <?php the_time('Y'); ?><?php /* If this is a search */ } elseif (is_search()) { ?>
Search Results<?php /* If this is an author archive */ } elseif (is_author()) { ?>
Author Archive<?php /* If this is a paged archive */ } elseif (isset($_GET['paged']) && !empty($_GET['paged'])) { ?>
Blog Archives
<?php } ?></h2><?php
if (have_posts()) :
while (have_posts()) : the_post();// check if we got a previe picture, and which one should be taken
// (image resizing with "tim thumb" on? then we can take the big one and resize it)
$preview_small = get_post_meta($post->ID, "_preview_small", true);
$preview_medium = get_post_meta($post->ID, "_preview_medium", true);
$preview_big = get_post_meta($post->ID, "_preview_big", true);//defaults:
$preview = $preview_medium;
$link_url = $preview_big;
$lightbox = 'singlepost';
$link = true;
//change if necessary:// resizing? => take next sized picture
if ($k_option['general']['tim'] == "1" && $preview_medium == "")
{
$preview = $preview_big;
}// no bigpicture? => no lightbox
if ($preview_big == "") { $lightbox = ''; $link = true; $link_url = get_permalink(); }
// the kriesi_build_image function used here checks if the image should be resized.
// the function is located in framework/helper_functions$preview = kriesi_build_image(array('url'=>$preview,
'height'=> '273',
'width'=> '610',

Sorry I fixed that by restoring it, just thought you should know at that point in case you was looking at it.
Do you know why the posts are not showing images next to them still?

Any luck?

Not sure why the mod didn't work for you - I've uploaded my archive.php code here: http://pastebin.com/3cmqYfhR and it works on my test server.
