WordPress and RSS

I am willing to pay someone to login in to my Word Press site and set it up to show thumbnail pics... I cant waste anymore time trying to get this done... everyone says its simple but I cant figure it out... I have one single feed I am drawing from and just want the featured pic to show as a thumbnail.. email me at [email protected] if your interested and I will get you the login info

Hi @teamcaz, we exchanged info on this one before. Please post the source feed that you want to use please - it has probably has a lot to do with the format of that feed. Alan

ok, your feed does have the media enclosure, most likely in buzztouch you aren't putting the right tags in the rss plugin. please tell me what you put in the XML Element Data-Points for my wordpress blog i use this: media:content yours could be different depending on the wordpress plugin that you used to create the media enclosure tags. try that and tell me what you do have in the story properties in BT

@fangrock, its hard to write up because each case is different. but if you are using wordpress i could recommend the plugin that i use to show images as well as the information that you need to add to the BuzzTouch RSS Plugin XML Data Elements screen. 1. I don't use Wordpress.com, so I'm not sure if they allow plugins to be imported but if you have wordpress on a standalone website, search for the plugin: WP RSS Images Activate Go the settings for that plugin and make sure that every checkbox is checked and select thumbnail size at the top 2. Head over to the BT control panel and go to your rss screen and in the Advanced Story Properties, click the drop down for the XML Element Data-Points. In the last option box for image information paste this: media:content Refresh your browser and check your feed. you should see image rss enclosures! If it doesn't show right away, give it time and it should work inside of your app!
