Hi Gustavo,

How can we make the containers for the featured posts on the homepage the same size and is it possible to include a thumbnail in the preview window?

do you intend to do thumbnails like here, on each window (http://mamu.net.br/)?

chrisdubia commented 8 years ago

Exactly! That would be great. Is there also a way to make the containers of the preview excerpts the same size? The example you shared also have different sizes.

Thanks so much!

You have to edit loop.php (or better, create a child theme) and under:

<header class="post-header"><h3>

add this to create the thumbnail: <div align="center"><?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it. the_post_thumbnail( 'thumbnail' ); } ?> </div>

i haven't tried making them the same size, but i would guess it is controled by <?php the_excerpt(); ?> which puts out a maximum text size, which you might be able to control via the function; but there might be other ways via CSS.

Thanks very much for your quick response and help. It worked!

Question for you. We are a very small nonprofit and have a limited capacity for tech development and are in need of someone that can help us customize our site. Not very much to do - just a few lines of code to customize the jeo theme

thoughts? best c
