I'm trying to get different image sizes on my wordpress website. For instance, I want the image size "thumbnail" to be displayed in category post list. While image size "Medium" should be displayed on actual post page. Right now, only thumbnail size images get displayed both on post list and on individual post. I realize I need to make some changes in my theme, but exactly what are those?
Look for the template file of your theme that handles the "post page" as you call it- most likely "single.php" (for single posts) and "page.php" (for pages)-unless the theme author has added custom templates- and find where the thumbnail image is being referenced. You should be able to reference the "medium" version of your uploaded image there instead. However, the theme author may be using an automatic thumbnail script to resize your image (such as TimThumb) and not the Wordpress-generated thumbnails as you might be thinking. If this is the case, you will have to swap out the thumbnailing code on the image tag in 'single.php' for a reference to the "medium" image...
Perhaps if you provided the example code in your single.php file where the thumbnailed image is called would help us give you a more specific answer on how you need to changes things.

i would like to create an image gallery on my homepage in drupal. Each image will have been uploaded by the user, and, as i understand it, will be saved in some image directory folder in drupal. My question concerns a recent tip i picked up in response to the general debate whether or not it is good to store images as blob in mysql. The tip was to store the filenames of the images in mysql so you can essentially still sort the files. I was wondering whether this would be possible even if the files url is in drupal so to speak. It should be possible shouldn't it? I new to programming you see and want to the images on my homepage to be periodically refreshed according to a define sorting function. I would greatly appreciate any response to this question. Cheers.
You can using content types and views module for create gallery in Drupal 7.
First create new content type with gallery name(admin/structure/types/add).
Then add a image field to gallery content type and save it.
If you want have thumbnail of image you should create a image style. for example create a image style with thumbnail_custom name and add suitable effect(admin/config/media/image-styles/add). You will use of this image style in views in the next step.
Then create a new view with gallery-view name. uncheck create a page, check create a block, enter block title and item per page you want(admin/structure/views/add).
In Filter criteria from block details add content type gallery.
In Fields add Content image that appears in node:gallery and select and select thumbnail_custom for image style option.
Save view.
This view block appears in Blocks section and you select region for it.
If you want this block appears only in the front page, in configuration of this block in the section pages of visibility settings check "Only the listed pages" option and then enter "<front>" phrase in textarea.
Here is a scenerio, on my products page I want to add an image of the product dimensions but for this image I want to use thumbnail which is different from the actual image which will say Dimensions. This will be applied to all the products across the store. So there will be one thumnail image for all the products that will be associated with it’s dimensional image. I want to show it on the gallery page as last image.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If I'm understanding you correctly, you just want every product to have a thumbnail that can be set to be one of several images.
You will need to create a custom attribute for your products, and then programmatically set your current inventory to your defaults. (Or manually change them) There is a knowledgebase article that will assist you with custom options (if applicable), or another article I found via Google to assist in custom attributes.
It's likely not the best way of doing it, but an example of the JavaScript method I was talking about is simply to add the following into a JS file on your server.
document.observe("dom:loaded", function() {
$$('.catalog-product-view .image-thumb:last img').each(function(item){item.src = 'http://domain.com/path/to/image.jpg'});
}
I am using Joomla and Seblod. I would like to create a gallery of thumbnails only, tiled next to one another and when clicked it will open each image into a lightbox (fancybox) and display larger image and description.
Problem I'm having is that when I try to display only the image thumbnails, I get the label "Image" or whatever I enter into Seblod. I just want plain image thumbnails, no text or any description but when clicked it opens them in the lightbox. I'm sure this is child's play, but confusing for a a beginning Joomla user like myself.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
There is built-in Lightbox functionality in Seblod, but it takes a few steps to make it work. It is even better if you use a custom template, because then you can add regular PHP functions to process your photos.
In any case, to get started, look at the tutorial I wrote on this subject: http://www.seblod.com/support/documentation/seblod-2x/fields/typo/1710-create-a-simple-gallery-with-fieldx-field.html
I am pretty new to joomla. The effect I am trying to achieve is http://www.greenjourneys.nl/individuele-reizen.html this. Notice, there is an featured image for each articles.
Can you tell me how to do this?
Just include the image before the page break.
There are a number of components that will allow you to resize the photo easily (or create tumbnails 'on the fly') which would work great for something like that.
However if you just have small images you want to use - simply include the image into the article before the pagebreak and use CSS to control how it lays out on the front page.
You can decide if you want the intro text to show in the main article or not, if you do - then you won't have to include the image again (it will show by default) but if you do not want the intro text to show, just be aware that the image you choose for the front page won't display in the article when clicked on.
Hope that helps.
How can I display a separate image before the title of each section, category and article (image be different)?
I.e. is there a way through admin plugin or some way so that I could render it easily?
I am using Joomla 1.5
Depends on the image. If you mean an icon or small image in front of the saction/category/title then you could do that with CSS and the page class suffix to determine which image displays on which page.
If you mean more like a header image, then you would probably need to do it in a module and assign the module to the page you want to place it in. You'd need a module per image doing it this way.
You could also add the image to the section or category description, then use a template override to place the image where you want it.
On one site we built we have a unique header image on every page. We did it with a module and K2. Again, it depends on what you are trying to do. You would need to give more details to get a specific answer.
