    Hello,

    I want to display a thumbnail size image at the homepage (as well as categories) on each individual post except summary. I saw the sample of my theme do that but my template didn't display the image.

    How do I do it? Thanks

    if you have livewire you can do it when creating a new post.. on the bottom you will see custom value type image, then give the value = url to the image. see mine http://www.scientificfacts.info

    I had that same problem with the Revolution them, in this case it was theme specific and you needed to insert it in a certain manner. That may be the case with your theme.

    Some things you can check out is Tiny Mice (never figured out how to use that)

    And Raw HTML (I think that's the name, just Google it). On one site I created the page in HTML in Kompozer and just inserted the Raw HTML code when creating the page.

    I think it is very easy of a Theme, using some plug-in like "Featured Content Gallery". During adding a New Post

    Add new custom field then place the URL of your thumbnail size image in the Value Box and publish.

    There's some code you can implement into your index.php file within the theme's directory.

    Select the position of the image that you wanted to add, and put on this code :
