Secondo articolo di prova per il blog settembre 2008

Actually the explanation above is clear enough for you to get the thumbnail working, but in case you missed something, you could read these step-by-step to-do list. Before you start, make sure that the image is already there, located in your own server. The script can not generate thumbnails if your image is located outside your server (eg. Flickr photos, Picassa, etc.)

  1. Be sure you have PHP 4.3 with GD-library installed on your server. PHP 5 is better.
  2. Start from a fresh copy and upload the theme at wp-content/themes/arthemia. Do not change ‘arthemia’ to anything because it will break everything.
  3. Make the folder “scripts” and “cache” writable (777). These folder are located in wp-content/themes/arthemia/ and wp-content/themes/arthemia/scripts/. You can do this using FTP or any online file manager from you web hosting company.
  4. Add a custom field in the post. The custom field key MUST be Image (letter cases are important).
  5. Fill the custom field value with the path of your image. It MUST start with wp-content I repeat it MUST start with wp-content. If you have the image located at http://www.yourblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/file_name.jpg then the key value of the custom field MUST be wp-content/uploads/2008/06/file_name.jpg (Notice there is no http://www.yourblog.com/ in the value)
  6. If you still have the problem, read the step-by-step procedures again, and again, and again. Trust me it’s working and many have succeeded making this thumbnail thing working.

If you still have problem about the thumbnail image resizer, please read the discussion below. The problem may lies on the web server. FYI, Windows-based server cannot use FTP to make the cache folder writable.
