I'm using a 9gag like theme on one of my wordpress sites. The issue is that on the main page the images don't show up. When you click the specific post you can see them but that doesn't really help me any since a user will obviously want to scroll through images quickly and only click on the ones that are relevant to them based on the image.

Has anyone used the 9gag theme? (as far as I know there is only one mainstream one out there)


Do you know what the issue would be?

    You may need to use a "Custom Field". Under the post box is an option to create a Custom Field. The field you want to create is "images". Then type in the url to the image. You only need to put in /wp-content/themes/theme_name/images/image_name or /images/image_name .... where ever your image is located.

    If you can't see the Custom Fields option under your post box, just go to the top of the screen to the right under screen options and checkbox it.

      I added custom fields and I believe I followed your instructions but it still doesn't seem to be showing images on the homepage for each post.

        That was just a guess, as I haven't used that theme, but failideas probably has the right answer ... featured images.

    if you are talking about RyzalYusoff 9gag theme
    you should add your images as featured images.
    only the featured images will show in the main page.
    on each specific post it will display the feature imaged + your post content, so if you had inserted the same image post and also as featured image, it will show the same image twice.

      That worked perfectly. Thank you very much.
