With this article, i wanna share my experience about thumbnail. Many wordpress theme (especially premium theme) using small image (thumbnail) as one of their factor to make those theme looks beauty. Unfortunately, many themes have different ways to show their thumbnail.

There is theme that force you to add “image” key at Custom Fields area, some other theme will ask you adding “thumb” key. This will make us works more harder when we want to change our theme, because we need to change all of post custom fields! What a pity!

Of of great themes (like WP AdvNespaper) have technology to make this stuff easier. In this theme, there is no need to add Custom Fields manually, because this theme were enriched with some script that allow any images that uploaded turned into thumbnail. Awesome!!

Yesterday, i found more interested things!

When i try to implementing new theme at Digital Camera Shop i found new plugin that could add thumbail automatically, and the best part is, we could implemented this plugin to all Wordpress theme!.

To do this, all you need is download and activate this plugin
1. post-thumb revisited plugin
2. post-plugin-library
Those two magical plugin will help you much.

Principal works of those plugin :
Those plugin will looks at your post, and if there is image inside it, it will be stored in library as thumbnail. Other plugin or script will only showing thumbnail for image that uploaded into your own wordpress server, but this plugin do more than that. It will capture all image (including video or youtube) even those image not stored inside your server.
If there is no image at your post, default images will be shown

This is the script :

<?php the_thumb(‘link=p&subfolder=home&width=70&height=70′); ?>

You can change that width and height to fit your own will
