Setting Featured Image For Posts in WordPress
WordPress added the ability to set a Featured Image for your posts in version 2.9. There are a couple of steps you need to take to get them to show up on your posts, so here is the easy way to do this without using a plugin:
- Open your functions.php file and make sure this line is there:
add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’ );
This does what it says on the tin and lets you use thumbnails/featured images in your posts. - To get them to show up in your posts though, you need to add another line of code to your loop.php file:
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
Put this where you want them to sit within the flow. - You can set the appearance and styling by adding your own version of code to the style.css file:
.attachment-post-thumbnail { width:271px; height:183px; padding: 0 20px 10px 0; float:left; border: 1px solid #e7e7e7; }
That’s it!
