I looked at your site and you have uploaded tiffs. You need to convert/export your images as jpegs. WordPress (and any website) only works with jpeg, gif and png image formats.

1) So you should delete all the images you have uploaded. Delete them from your posts. Then delete them from your Media Library. In WordPress go to Media. Click the check box next to all the images and then delete them.

2) Export your images as jpegs with a maximum width of 900 pixels or height of 600 pixels.

3) Read the instructions carefully. And check out http://wpfolio.visitsteve.com/wiki/
Make sure you have configured the Media settings in WordPress correctly. And that you have installed a Lightbox or Shadowbox or equivalent plugin.

4) And then re-upload them to the appropriate posts. This should work better. WordPress and WPFolio will create and display thumbnails for you.

Good luck. Write you if need help creating jpegs.

To choose a an image to represent the gallery on the category page you need the most recent version of WPFolio. You can update it on the Themes page. And you need WordPress 2.9 or later. After you have updated your theme and WordPress return to the gallery dialog box on the Edit Post page click “show” next to the image you want and click “Use as Featured Image” towards the bottom of the image dialog (below title, alt, caption, etc. text boxes). Click Save Changes in the image dialog box. Click Update for the Post. And that should do it.

Write if there are problems.

Apparently you just save your draft post before inserting images. Silly, but it works for me!

I just realized that the titles of my paintings are jumbled when in the gallery slide show. My titles tend to be long and some do not fit within the width of the image. I also would like to have other information (date, medium, dimensions) listed below the title in the gallery slide show. I am using jQuery Lightbox. I really like the way

has his slide show formatted, but can’t seem to figure it out myself.

-I also would like to know how to change the order of my posts of galleries.

-And, I wanted to know how I can choose which image represents each gallery post.

Thank you! I love this theme, I have been searching for this style for a long time.

1. I want to change the picture on my homepage to a photoshopped collage jpeg I uploaded into my gallery to show multiple works. I tried replacing the other photo, but then nothing showed up at all, so I restored it to your settings. How can I make my new image work?

2. In my painting category, I have three pages and I want to change the order of them as well as the thumbnail images on the links. I tried to reorder them by looking for the number order box that I remember seeing before, but I couldn’t find it. Maybe I’m looking in the wrong place? And as for the thumbnails, I have no idea how to alter those.

Thank you!

This requires a plugin called FrontPage Manager (It should be easy but to do it without a plugin, but it requires some programming and the creation of a new file for the WPFolio theme. So, let’s skip ahead and use the plugin).

With recent versions of WordPress you can find and install plugins from the “Dashboard”. Go to Plugins->Add New and enter “Frontpage Manager” in the search box. In the list of plugins then shown, “Frontpage Manager” is about 5th in the list. Click “install” to the right of the plugin description and follow the screen instructions until the plugin is installed and activated. (Don’t forget to activate it).

Then go to Settings->Frontpage Manager, choose the category and options you wish and click “Update Options”.

Make sure that in Setting->Reading that you have chosen “Your Latest Posts” for “Front Page Displays”.

Check your front page. As with all things “computer” it may take a few tries to get exactly what you want.
