Hello Guys, I just finally found the reason why timthumb doesn’t running.
1. Delete the script –> in every file in arthemia premium folder (index.php,function.php,sidebar.php,footer.php)

Before:

After:

2. Using custom field, fills the Field name “Image” and value ex: “wp-content/uploads/2011/04/img.jpg”

3. Finish.

Hi Silvia - I use the Advanced Excerpt plugin to style all of my plugins, but I think you could just replace "the_excerpt" with "the_content" php code in your templates. check the WordPress codex for more info: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerptLet me know how you get along.

Hi Michael – I am not familiar with the custom coding in Arthemia Premium, but usually you can paste functions anywhere you like in functions.php (so long as it is not in the middle of another function!) I usually simply put them in at the bottom, just before the last the php function is closed with a ?> That is where it is in Arthemia Free. Let me know if that works for you?

Hey Rusty, I am using Arthemia Premium. I was wondering if there were any differences between the two. I want to attempt to try this fix but I am unsure of exactly what to do. I looked at the functions.php page and was unable to identify exactly where i was supposed to insert the codes. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Lucy and Jeff:
For the featured posts on the front page, I actually just manually enter my custom excerpts on the edit/create post page. I have found that an excerpt that is about one line long in the field (on my browser at least) is about the right length. That way I can have the excerpt for these posts to not get truncated. I have added fall back code to my template however utilizing the advanced excerpt plugin to add a 90 character excerpt if I have forgotten to add a custom one myself… This is one of the really nice things about the plugin – you can really customize it to your liking on a instance-by-instance basis. For the featured posts I use this as my arguments:

‘length=90&use_words=0&no_custom=0&ellipsis=%26hellip;’

You can see all the arguments that are available in the advanced excerpt faq – just scroll to the bottom of the page.
