  3. Christian says:

    Please, delete my comment… I’ve fixed it, but… as you can see I have a three columns layout… the image is displayed in the central column with a size 480×712 (on the settings I’ve put 480×396) and title+excerpt is shown on the left column, hidden by the left column text… what a mess!

    Hey, this plugin sounds great and its just what I’m looking for, however, I can not get it to work! As a test I added the simple function **<?php featuredpostsList2($before = ‘’, $after = ‘’, $details = ‘N’, $image = ‘N’) ?>** in the right side bar and everything disappears. I checked the error logs and I get the following error
    **PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function featuredpostsList2()**

    Any ideas of whats going on?

    Thanks

  23. sara says:

    If i use

    <?php featuredpostsList2($before = ‘’, $after = ‘’, $details = ‘N’, $image = ‘Y’) ?>

  26. Nigel says:

    Trying this on our test website with WP 2.7 and iNove theme. Added the code to index.php with option for image with title & brief.

    The image of the first post appears at the top of the posts area, but the title and text appear in the bottom left side of the screen, not overlaying the image as expected.

    Do I need a separate DIV for this?

  27. chris says:

    Where do you place this code?

  28. SAN says:

    you need to replace featured-posts-list.php
    from your plugins/featured-posts-list2/ directory

  29. John says:

    I have added this code: <?php featuredpostsList2($before = ‘’, $after = ‘’, $details = ‘N’, $image = ‘Y’) ?>

    To my index.php, and I receive this message:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘>’ in …themes/Equilibrium/index.php on line 14

  30. SAN says:

    John, try to check your quotes.
    should be this

    <?php featuredpostsList2($before = '', $after = '', $details = 'N', $image = 
    'Y') ?>
  31. chris says:

    I got it to work guys thank you.

  32. cupnoodle79 says:

    I have installed this plugin, its not working.
    I am suspecting that it might be i am not adding the custom field correctly?

    i have added under customer field in each post as:
    Name: FeatureImage
    value: http://singaporetop10.multiclickz.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/gss_over_banner.jpg

    added: to the post of a page.

    but it does not show please help.

  33. SAN says:

    Can you let me know URL of that page where you added plugins codes?

  34. cupnoodle79 says:

    i am testing with a page that i have currently http://singaporetop10.multiclickz.com/about/ i am adding the php code at the bottom of the post.

  35. SAN says:

    i have checked your site http://singaporetop10.multiclickz.com/about/ and view source too.

    have you try to pass some other options too.. as above.
    i guess, you have not activated plugin or need to use new version.
    please let us know

  36. cupnoodle79 says:

    I activated the plug in and added the above code into my post:
    <?php featuredpostsList2($before = ”, $after = ”, $details = ‘N’, $image = ‘Y’) ?>

    it still does not work, it shows “$details = ‘N’, $image = ‘Y’) ?>” in my post instead of the pictures.

  37. SAN says:

    may be any other plugins stopping it.. check with deactivate any plugins.. if possible

  38. Ramakanth says:

    Will this work for wordpress 2.8.2 ?

  39. SAN says:

    try it should work

  40. Nate says:

    I feel like a newbie. I can now get the images to pull, but now have 2 new issues.

    1. Images aren’t transitioning.
    2. Title and blurb are showing up far down the page.

    Lil help anyone?

  41. Nate says:

    Still having the same issues.

  42. Nate says:
  43. SAN says:

    Nate, i have seen that error in your screenshot, i guess you have
    css problem any div not closed properly. that why it overlaping

  44. Nate says:

    I didn’t even think of that. I’ll have to play around with my stylesheet. Thanks for the heads up. Any idea why the posts aren’t transitioning?

  45. Nate says:

    ok I finally got the alignment worked out, but it’s still not animating transitions between the posts. They’re set in the back end. I’m lost. Lil help?

  46. Nate says:

    OH NO!This is only compatible up to Wordpress 2.7.1. I’m running 2.8.2. Are there any plans on making this compatible with the newest version of Wordpress?

  47. Ryan says:

    Is there a way I can add this to the sidebar?

  48. SAN says:

    yes.. you can add it sidebar too, just copy paste codes where you want to display it

  49. warren says:

    hi, this looks promising. but i cant figure out why the javascript doesnt work.

    i tried using newer versions of the jquery, but still no luck.
    i also tried adding more blog posts, up to 5, and still no luck.

    it always return error with the ff block code

    $(function() {
    $(’#featuredpost’).cycle({
    fx: ’scrollUp’,
    speed: ’slow’,
    timeout: 6000,
    pause:2,
    next: ‘#next2′,
    prev: ‘#prev2′
    });
    });

    did i miss anything?

  50. warren says:

    nevermind problem solved. i just noticed that the path set was wrong:

    instead of the folder this: featured-posts-list2
    it should be this: featured-posts-list-2

    great plugin. works well with wp 2.8.4

  51. Феликс says:

    Вот про это я почитал с большим интересом. И с удовольствием прочитал бы еще больше! Планируете ли в дальнейшем писать на эту же тему? Спасибо

  52. ICE says:

    Hey

    I added the plugin to my 2.8.4 WP’s index page.

    It shows okay, using the code:

    It loads okay where I placed it. However:

    1- The image and the text are showing while loading the page. But when loading is complete, the text moves to the bottom of the page (above the footer), for some reason, while the image statys above !

    2- The image is displayed, but it is not changed. There is no rotation between the posts added to the plugin’s setting, Even under the presence of the first problem (text at the bottom). So netier the image nor the text rotates. It just remains the same, with image in its place but text in the bottom.

    I used the same code but with $details = ‘N’ , and it is the same.

    If I use the code:

    Only titles and short excerpts appear.

    It was very diffcult for me to add the code, it was unclear at all as how to form the code that suits my needs. Your explanation above and the codes-tags-variables you provided are completely vague. Thats why I have actually copied the code you provided to another user above in the comments, added it to my index.php, and still the problem that I described above.

    So I basically want to know, what is the exact code to show the plugin with the title and the image only, of course with the rotational effect movement.

    Thank you very much

  53. SAN says:

    Ice, you need to use this codes to display only Title, images

    <?php featuredpostsList2($before = '<h3>', $after = '</h3>', $details = 'N, $image = 'Y'); ?>

    And yes.. if your content going on footer, its mean any other css crashing with it
    must add clear div

    just below the featuredpostlist2 code.

    if you using any other jquery, with your wordpress, so i can stop chnaging image.. you need to check it by changing effects from wp-admin
    must let us know about your url to tell you extact problem

  54. alanxr says:

    Hi,
    I’m trying to use this plugin on my wensite with no luck at all I changed the path like the other guy said but still nothing I had to take it down because of that. I’m using wordpress 2.8 with a cuztomized template. Is there any other tip I should now about?

    Thanks!

  55. SAN says:

    You must check if your theme already includes any Jquery, so this plugin, wont work,for tihs case you need to edit featuredpostlist2.php files from plugin folder. we have face same problem with http://www.palsahab.com. once we remove jquery from featuredpostlist2.php. it works fine over there.

    2nd problem we getting it css. try to use “clear:both”
    before and after where you plugin add.

  56. Ryan Brannen says:

    So after a little work on customizing the code to only show what I needed to be displayed, I found this plugin works great. thanks you! http://blog.oneredkey.com/ (featured on the right)

    I wanted to ask about the possibility of incorporating a feature that allows the most popular posts of the blog be displayed (as opposed to selecting specific id’s). So I would upload a ‘FeatureImage’ for all my posts and in the PlugIn admin I would select something like “Show Top 10″ posts. Reading the stats data on each post, the plugin would identify and display just like it does now. Not being an advanced programmer, I’m not sure of the level of difficulty of what I’m asking.

  57. ICE says:

    SAN thanx.

    1- I added the code you provided to my index, the blog failed to load with error:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /xxxxxx/3areda/wp-content/themes/pride/index.php on line 19

    2- What do u mean by clear div? should I add that just as it is (”clear div”) after the code?

    3- what do u mean by jquery? I is it java ?
    Could the “rate this post” plugin be causing the problem?

    my blog was linked with my name in my first post, and here it is:
    http://www.3areda.com

    ThanX !!

  58. SAN says:

    Ryan,
    thats great that it works to you. thanks for using this.
    about your idea, its really good idea and we already started work on it from last week.. shortly you will get new verion… please wait for few more days

  59. SAN says:

    ICE,
    i have visited on your url http://www.3areda.com/, im sorry but i did not find any code about this plugins on this url ??

    can you show me after any page where you add this plugins codes ??

    about jquery, yes. its .js file can be used for many things.
    but i can tell you exactly when see codes on your site

  60. ICE says:

    The reason why I didnt show the plugin on my website is that, as I said before, it causes the blog to crash (not load), giving the error:
    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /xxxxxx/3areda/wp-content/themes/pride/index.php on line 19

    Now, I tried to inject the code inside on post, and for that I used the plugin Exec-PHP , and inserted the code in this page:

    http://www.3areda.com/2009/09/188/featured-posts/

    Yet the plugin is not showing as you can see.

    I dont know what to do.

    Thank U !

  61. ICE says:

    The page where I injected the code is this:

    http://www.3areda.com/featured-posts/

  62. Brett says:

    Does the image need to be 480X396? I’m trying with an couple of 480×320 images and I don’t see the images getting rotated, puls ther is a bunch of white space surrounding the images, what am I doing wrong?

    http:www.ipodmobilegamer.com

  63. Brett says:

    Also I don’t see the bottom area of the image, near the text whith a semi transparent overlay!

  64. SAN says:

    Brett,
    yes you have to use ‘X’ 480X396 or what ever you size. but use ‘X’ not ‘x’

  65. SAN says:

    Brett, any jquery stoping this, if your site already has jquery so comments plugin jquery and check

  66. thaimerits says:

  67. Pali Madra says:

    First of all thank you for the great plugin.

    I had a question. I wanted to use the WordPress featured post list2 with image plugin on multiple pages on my site. However, on each page I want it to pull in different set of posts.

    Is this possible? If yes then please let me know how?

    If anyone developer is ready to work on this enhancement please let me know. I can put in the time to work on this but I would need assistance in trouble shooting.

  71. Phil says:

  72. SAN says:

    I got your mean. but right now its not possible to use different featuredpostlist in 2 place.

  73. SAN says:

  74. Pär Westerlind says:

    I I would like to add a date stamp (ex. 2009.09.15) to featured list.
    Is it possible?

  76. Jason Day says:

    I’m getting an error (the slideshow shows then disappears) - when inspecting the error I get Error: $(”#featuredpost”).cycle is not a function
    Source File: http://movemaine.com/
    Line: 192

    so, I’m assuming it’s a jquery issue. Thoughts?

    Thanks. (btw i’m on 2.8.4)

  77. yash says:

    Yas, Jason, jquery creating problem, you can do one thing. just stop plugins jquery and try

  78. eerms says:

    Great plugin. I got it working, but there is a problem with its size in my sidebar. Can someone please take a look at http://www.dq.lv and point me to what exactly I’m doing wrong?

  79. albert says:

    The image is not showing on Internet explorer and the title are pushed very far down.

  80. albert says:

    how can one stop the jquery for the plugin?

  81. SAN says:

    Albert, just open wp-content/plugins/featured-posts-list2/featured-posts-list.php
    comments line 147 or
    <SCRIPT src="<?php echo get_option(’siteurl’); ?>/wp-content/plugins/featured-posts-list2/jquery-1.2.1.pack.js"
    type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
    remove it

  82. oLLE says:

    i have the same problem, that the text is at the bottom of my page…
    http://www.chillside.in/featuredpost/

  83. SAN says:

    i guess, you did not uploaded jquery in plugin folder

  84. Nando says:

    Is possible add a link to a gallery? if i put the link of a gallery the plugin show in the home of the page the pics of the gallery… if possible please inform me..

  94. tim mitchell says:

    your comments have been very, very helpful, and almost all of my issues were solved by them. However, i still cannot get the features to rotate, and I have tried adding and removing <SCRIPT src=”/wp-content/plugins/featured-posts-list2/jquery-1.2.1.pack.js”
    type=text/javascript> from featured-posts-lists.php many times, and nothing rotates.

  95. tim mitchell says:

    oh… and the overlay for the text doesn’t seem to work either. I don’t have any other plugins using jquery right now.

  96. SAN says:

    Tim can you show me url where you added that so i can tell you exact problem ?

  97. CK says:

    You can delete my other comments. I give up. Somehow http://www.palsahab.com has it working in their 2.8.5 install, yet none of us in 2.8.4 can do it and there is no suggested fixes here or in the FAQs. I’ll come back around when it’s a plug’n'play install. Looks great though. Good luck. Just doesn’t work for me.

  98. tim mitchell says:

    sure - - i have one featured right now on my home page: http://www.timjmitchell.com - as you can see, the overlay doesn’t show up. I only have one featured - the path to the file is: http://timjmitchell.com/wp-content/themes/illacrimo/index.php - as you can see… neither the transparent overlay nor the rotation occur

  99. tim mitchell says:

    fyi - i found two recources that could have something to do with the jquery issues: http://digwp.com/2009/06/including-jquery-in-wordpress-the-right-way/ and http://encosia.com/2008/12/10/3-reasons-why-you-should-let-google-host-jquery-for-you/ - man, this plugin is awesome… it would just be great if it worked for everyone!

  100. SAN says:

    Tim, please download last updated version from wordpress, this problem fixed in that.

  101. tim mitchell says:

    lastest version of wordpress or the lastest version of your plugin? i have the newest versions of both

  102. SAN says:

    update version of plugin.. we have updated it on 20th November 2009, as i have seen same problem those we fixed and uploaded, so please download it and try it will work

    I try to do something with <SCRIPT src=”/wp-content/plugins/featured-posts-list2/jquery-1.2.1.pack.js” the twitter show up, the featured post image show up, but the title is not display and won’t rotate.

    Can you check this problem please?

  104. SAN says:

    i guess you need to replace
    http://underpk.com/wp-content/themes/underpk2/twitter/jquery-1.3.2.min.js

    with plugin jquery. try to do any these steps

    1. stop plugin jquery then check ( coz you already has jquery)
    or
    2. try to reply plugin jquery by this
    http://underpk.com/wp-content/themes/underpk2/twitter/jquery-1.3.2.min.js

  105. underpk says:

    Thanks SAN. I move the jquery and jcycle.js from the plugin to the header and then it work now! Thanks again :)

    Ok for one I dont know how to check for post ID’s so I just put “1, 2, 3, 4, 5″ It’s showing nothing but an empty white box.

    I also want the featured post section to display 513×200 is it possible or does it have to be the default image size? I put 512×200 into the image size section in featured posts list2.

    Does the image that I use through my custom fields have to be the exact same size or will it size down because at the moment no image is showing, I have put in “FeatureImage” into the name and a proper path?

    thank you in advance :)

  107. SAN says:

    thanks for using our plugins, for check post Id’s you need to go wp-admin >> then try to edit any post, when your post will open for been edit, check address url. you can see post id.

    any size can be used, you dont need to make your images in that size. plugin will hide extra images itself.
    please update us if any other help you need

  108. abs says:

    sorry for double post, I just wanted to add that I have tried putting the post id “rob-wanted-a-pic” and it’s showing the post “rob-wanted-a-video” instead, no matter what id I seem to put there it continues to show the “rob-wanted-a-video” post. Also I had put up an image for “rob-wanted-a-pic” with the custom field “FeaturedImage” and the source “wp-content/uploads/2009/11/1440-900-35311-300×187.jpg” yet no picture is showing, thank you

  109. cawl says:

    I’m currently playing around with how to modify the css for this plugin to be browser resizable. Currently the image is a fixed size. Any ideas how to make the image resize appropriately per a percentage or something similar? Would that be possible?

    I’m using postname permalinks for my post id’s and when I put in my postname ids it doesn’t show right, any ideas?

  111. เสื้อ says:

    Thanks SAN. I move the jquery and jcycle.js from the plugin to the header and then it work now! Thanks again

  112. SAN says:

    ABS, when you go in Wp-admin and try to edit any post..
    you can see Post Id in address bar,
    you can get that and add in plugin. it will work, try

  113. cawl says:

    Ok - I gave up on the resize and just fixed width the layout. Now my only problem is IE. This plugin works (even when I moved the overlay) perfectly in Chrome, FF, and Safari but the transitions don’t work properly in IE. It seems to lose the overlay after the first transition. Any ideas? Stupid IE.

  114. cawl says:

    Narrowing the problem above down. It appears to only happen with fade - it seems to be working in IE with shuffle. Any ideas? I’d prefer to use fade.

  115. abs says:

    Thank you again SAN and yes it is now showing the post that I want it to show however it still isnt showing propperly. With the custom field “FeaturedImage” and the source “wp-content/uploads/2009/11/1440-900-35311-300×187.jpg” no picture is showing, any ideas?

  116. SAN says:

    ABS.. try to use full path of image like, http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/1440-900-35311-300×187.jpg

  117. SAN says:

    cawl: it seems like z-index: problem in css, check at your end

  118. abs says:

    After putting “FeatureImage” as the name and the path as “http://www.xin-gaming.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/1440-900-35311-300×187.jpg” it still does not seem to show any images, could you possibly check my home page and check what it could be? It’s the empty white part right of the links.

    I’m having problems with IE 8 (not sure about the other versions of IE) displaying my whole page once I put the code
    <?php featuredpostsList2($before = ”, $after = ”,

    $details = ‘Y’, $image = ‘Y’); ?>
    out of the loop on my index.php . Is there anywhere else I should place this code? Love the app, otherwise.

  120. Studio says:

    Hi I’d sent an earlier comment regarding the plugin and waited most of the day for a reply. I see it was removed. I have the plugin installed at my site, however IE only opens up the site half way. I placed this code in my index.php outside the loop (no div) <?php featuredpostsList2($before = ”, $after = ”, $details = ‘Y’, $image = ‘Y’); ?> It shows up fine in Firefox, Safari and Google. I like the plugin and would like to continue to use it, however it’s affecting IE Version 8. I’m not sure of the other versions. Please advise on what could possibly be the issue here. Thanks in advance.

  121. SAN says:

    we have seen that problem in IE, it effect in IE7 too, well your have a http://www.studionoize.com/wp-includes/js/prototype.js?ver=1.6 its creating some problem in IE, try after remove that for a while

  122. Studio says:

    Thanks so much for the reply. I’ll check that out!

    is there a way to make a list of the images rather than just having the images on top of eachother? i’m trying to have three featured posts at the top of my home page that do not cycle, but are static in their three positions

  124. justin says:

    whenever I add the code the image is placed in the correct spot, but it puts the description in the bottom left corner of the page.

    any ideas?

  125. SAN says:

    Mes, yes you can do that just need to edit featured-post-list.php
    if you remove css.. i guess it would work as you required

  126. SAN says:

    justin, you have some css problem, try to make a div with extact size and add plugin codes.

  129. George says:

    Awesome Plugin. You have done a great job with this. I would like to have it display 3 or 4 featured posts with images, like a list. So, like the images you have above with the titles on them but side by side, preferably in a couple of rows and no special effects needed. Something similar to the “top stories” on “engadget.com” I am good at HTML and CSS, but I haven”t done a lot with PHP and I am having trouble figuring out the easiest way to do this. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

    PS. Your code listed above for “Title and brief With Image as Showcase” is missing a “‘” after the “N”, this may be screwing some people up.

  130. SAN says:

    please search this code
    <div class="featureditem" <?php if($count > ‘1′) { echo "Style=’display:none’"; } ?>>

    Hi i’m just trying some optioins of your plugin.
    I’ ve find interesting the opportunity to load even image not pubblished in the featured post. this is a really interesting thongs, but theres is some optinons that are not clear.

    So
    i try to pubblish one featured post only with this code:
    <?php featuredpostsList2($before = ”, $after = ”, $details = ‘Y’, $image = ‘Y’); ?>
    but image and text are not display in a right way ( i’ m using atahualpa theme as first user who left a comment)

    but as you can see( http://www.ilbigliettaio.it/?page_id=5293)
    your plug in displays only title posts..

    I forget to explain my doubts:
    for example if i want to create my front page to displyng 4 featured posti set featured Post list2 admin and than i create a 2 rows x 2 columns table.

    Installed and activated….but where do I put the PHP code snippet? In a template or in a page?

    I want to put it in a page, because I only want featured posts to appear in one place. But if I add to my page nothing happens. ??

    See http://www.suddenresponse.co.uk/wp - this home page has the plugin code before anything else, but nothing is showing at all.

    I don’t want to add it in template because I don’t want it appearing on all pages, just the home page.

    Any ideas?

    thanks

  144. SAN says:

    Hugh, if you want to add this only on home page, so you need to create a file “home.php” you can use “save as” page.php for this

    Most of time. if plugin creating problem..like overlap, sliding not working, it due to jquery. and css, you need to check your existing css and jquery to fix it

    Great plugin. Thank you much. One request…for the Image Showcase can you add navigation for the transition. Like a slide show that has 1,2,3…up to the number of posts. This will help the reader know there is more and can manually go back, forward or to specific post.

    There seems to be an incompatibility between this plugin and Nex-gen image gallery plugin. When this plugin is enabled, the shutter and thickbox effects stop working in all the galleries. It seems to be the jquery include… 1.2.1… maybe that is too old at this point.

    Thank you for this great plugin, the only one of the ind that would work on my project.
    I have a little problem, wich I don’t seem to resolve (don’t know php), I will try to explain clearly.

    Got an horizontal navigation menu just on top of the featured post window. (#featureditem)
    When I hover on a menu Item, subitems scroll down vertically.

    Now I have 3 posts + picture, featured say ID: 75, 78, 89

    Now the problem :
    I can only see the entire scrolled down subitems when I’m in post ID 89, I did some testings it’s always the last post ID no matter the ID.
    For the rest of the ID’s the scrolled down menu subitems go BEHIND the Featured post picture. you see ?

    I suspect It has to do with css property Z-index: 5; only taken into account for the LAST ID but I don’t know to modify this in PHP.

    I would very grateful if you could have a look at this

    Thank you !!

  178. JC says:

    Hi SAN.
    I already tried your solution before asking help but without any success. (my menu is z-index 100)
    I thought that this is not a problem of CSS because it works ok in one Featured post , but not on the other and the CSS property is the same for both of them. So I thought it might be the way in wich the CSS property is passed to each featured post in the PHP code, wich unfortunately I can’t read. what do you think ? is it possible that the CSS property is parsed to only ONE post by the PHP code ?

  179. JC says:

    Ok solved it passing z-index: 1 to #featuredpost. maybe you could addit in your next release.
    Thanks allot for this nice plugin.

  180. qp says:

    ok. Check my pages, e.g. http://theunitedpersons.org/project/free-tax-project or http://theunitedpersons.org/constitution or any other: all of it have the same title: “Avatar: a hero for Na’vis – half a millenium ago” and not the real title (Free Tax Project or Constitution or …). The “infecting” title comes from sidebar.php when I insert the code Featured Posts <?php featuredpostsList2($before = ”, $after = ”, $details = ‘N’, $image = ‘N’) ; ?> : the last featured post infects the titles of all my pages.

    Hi

    Im very impressed with this plugin, however im having some problems getting it to work on my page.
    I’m getting some script errors if im just trying to use the plugin as it is (and nothing rotates).

    I tried to remove <SCRIPT src="/wp-content/plugins/featured-posts-list2/jquery-1.2.1.pack.js"
    type=text/javascript>

    but that doesnt help either.
    When i remove the above line, the script errors i got to start with is goes away, however i get a new one. and the text portion of the plugin isn’t were it is supposed to be.

    Any ideas what i can do differently?

    http://www.glacier.dk

  187. SAN says:

    yes.. search
    speed: ’slow’,
    make it Fast

  188. SAN says:

    Esben, we have seen your site, you have css problem too, you need to make it clear then add this plugin

  189. Esben Viborg says:

    Sorry for being a little slow. but what do you mean by “clearing the css”?
    IE reports a script error in the following function:

    $(function() {
    $(’#featuredpost’).cycle({
    fx: ‘Select Effect’,
    speed: ’slow’,
    timeout: 6000,
    pause:2,
    next: ‘#next2′,
    prev: ‘#prev2′
    });
    });

    Is that just IE being IE or is there something wrong?

    for showcase, you must have images in the posts, then use these steps
    Go to Settings/options >> Featured Posts List2 tab to update posts Ids to display under your featured Posts list on your site.
    4. you can user multiple posts Ids by use comma. example : 1, 2, 3, it will display 3 post lists

    @Lazuardi : please check you have used wrong codes
    < ?php featuredpostsList2($before = ”, $after = ”, $details = ‘N’, $image = ‘N’) ; ?>
    for display images you need make $image =’Y’ not ‘N’, so code should be
    < ?php featuredpostsList2($before = ”, $after = ”, $details = ‘N’, $image = ‘Y’) ; ?>

  211. Laura says:

    Looks like my script didn’t make it into my previous comment: Using “” does nothing.

    Using does nothing.

  213. Laura says:

    Sorry, SAN. My php script isn’t showing up in my comments. Here’s my question: If I add “$category = ‘4′” after “$image = ‘Y’”, nothing happens. Is there any way I target or exclude a category from the featured post lineup? OR have multiple versions of a featured post list? Thanks!!

    Hi SAN.
    Just wondering it seems like this plugin is not functioning properly for Internet Explorer 9 (beta)? Even on your demo site, you can see that only the first post will display in the featured post box, and then it will transition to a blank screen. I can’t figure out why this occurs. It works fine with all other browsers and older versions if IE.

    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks!
    LS

    Hi SAN,

    I’m running Atahualpa theme v3.4.2 on latest WP.

    I created a page called “Featured Gallery” and inserted “<?php featuredpostsList2($before = ”, $after = ”, $details = ‘Y’, $image = ‘Y’); ?>” but it doesn’t work. It just shows part of the code on the page.

    Is there a conflict with the plugin and Atahualpa?

    Thanks,
    Jeff

  216. SAN says:

  217. SAN says:

    Dear San, thanks a lot (really, a lot!) for your plugin.
    I’m not practice about coding and your plugin is great for people like me :-D
    I want to have a little help about a strange effect I have in my website (www.farwest.it)…
    For some seconds the description appears in the bottom left corner of the page. Then it goes in the right place under the pictures.
    Would you like so kind to give me some help?
    Thank you in advance and have a great new year!

  219. Chris says:

    Can Someone explain where the short code goes? I follow the instructions and I nothing to display on my home page. I put the php snipit code on the page that I wanted to display the posts. I ID’d the posts with FeatureImage and set up the correct link to the picture. I too will pay someone for help. Thanks! email me at strip27@yahoo.com

  220. SAN says:

    @Sergio,Thanks and happy new year 2011! i have visited on your website, actually plugin, jquery, and css takes time to start functional untill entire page not download on browser. try to remove extra js i guess you dont need plugin jquery as you have already jquery added on header.

  221. SAN says:

    @Chris, please let us know your url where you installed our plugin and facing problem.

  222. Chris says:

    Thanks SAN, your plugin looks so nice, I would really like it to work. My site is http://www.thelandlordapp.com. I just need some instruction on where to place the “” code. Is it try that I just type FeatureImage under custom field for each post?

  223. Chris says:

    Just to be clear:
    1. I typed FeatureImage under custom field for each post, and linked the full path to the image
    2. I configured the plugin page
    3. I do not know where to paste the php code.

    When I past it on a page, i get nothing, not even an error, so I do not know where to start.

    Thanks again SAN!!

  224. SAN says:

    @Chris : not just add custom fields, you have to add above any code on your themes .php pages.
    like
    wp-contents/themes/yourtheme/index.php
    add this code
    <?php featuredpostsList2($before = ‘<h3>’, $after = ‘</h3>’, $details = ‘Y’, $image = ‘Y’); ?>

  225. Chris says:

    I cut and paste the code into my index.php file (my main index template), still nothing. Does it matter what part of the file I put the code in?

  227. Dante says:

    Hello! Well I cant seem to make it work properly. I istalled the plugin, I pasted the code in home.php and I added the FeatureImage field and the full path in the posts and all I get in the first page is the title and the links.. I tried to remove jquery from the code but that dont seem to be the problem. It keeps displaying as list items title and description. Thank you in advance for your help.
