Using Mimbo theme

Using Mimbo theme

Feb 11

This method above applies to any image in the front page. Of course, you can use ImageManager to prepare and insert pictures in your posts as well. Just make sure in the dialog box you click ‘OK’ to insert the image in the post and not ‘Cancel’ as we did, because we wanted to insert with the custom field section instead.

    Great article on a great theme. I loved the Image Manager plugin which I guess has been somewhat superseded now we have the new Media Gallery (although still no way to file images neatly into folders)

    If all that image resizing and custom field tagging is spoiling your enjoyment of MIMBO then you should check out the VIVA THUMBS plugin from Mediatricks. It takes the first image you upload (using WP Add Media – not Image Manager) and automatically thumbnails it on the fly to any size your theme needs.

    It can also display a defautl category linked image if there is no image uploaded with a post.

    The demo site has a fully working version you can login and test: http://www.mediatricks.biz/demo

    Viva Thumbs makes Mimbo, Revolution, Unstandard and all the new ‘picture perfect’ themes a snap to administer.
