To display a columnist’s avatar on the front page of the site (with the customized Options theme):

1. Upload his/her avatar on the wp-content/uploads folder;

2. When uploading content, go to the Custom Field section and create a key with the name “Thumbnail”;

3. In the Value column, enter the image URL in this format: /wp-content/uploads/filename.jpg

This blog remained unchanged for a long time.

Starting today, we will chronicle here changes in Tinig.com such as design updates, new columnists, etc.

Speaking of design updates, we started using Options themes for WordPress with our own customizations earlier this year.

The most recent tweak I did was on the author page.

To avoid displaying a columnist’s avatar on each of his/her posts,  I changed

<?php echo get_the_image_link(array(’Thumbnail’), ‘thumbnail’); ?>

to

<?php

if ( in_category(’tinig’) )
{
echo get_the_image_link(array(’Thumbnail’), ‘thumbnail’);

} else {
// other categories
}
?>
