Donations for extended support are appreciated but are never required! This plugin gives you access to two a simple shortcake to display post thumbnails in a grid. The plugin uses the featured image thumbnail if one exists. If one does not exist, the title will be displayed instead. Use the category feature to ensure that all of the posts that you want to display in this manner have thumbnails. This plugin is not designed to show several pages of thumbnails, rather it is designed to allow you to embed thumbnails into any page or to display a subset of thumbnails on a page. To show more thumbnails on a page than the default value Blog pages show at most, use a fixed value for posts_per_page or try setting the posts_per_page value to ’999′. Your theme must be enabled for post thumbnails. POSTS & PAGES You can use any of the parameters listed in the wordpress codex. Click here to see the WordPress Codex for Posts Here are some of the most common paramaters: cat = (*Use cat instead of category for posts if category does not work) category id. To view the category id, go to your post categories, edit the category and look in the browser address bar for the category id. If you don’t see it, click your mouse in the address bar. It should look something like this. The category id is 7: [[your site goes here]]/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?action=edit&taxonomy=category&tag_ID =7&post_type=post posts_per_page – the number of posts to display. The default is -1. This causes the post count to default to the value in Blog pages show at most. post_type – the type of posts to display. The default is ‘post”. Enter any type that supports thumbnails. Obviously, you want to have featured images set for all of the posts that you are displaying in this grid. You can use ‘page’ here if your theme supports thumbnails on pages. You can enter custom post types, like ‘events’ in this section too. orderby – Sort retrieved posts by parameter. The default is none. order – ‘DESC’ or ‘ASC’ tag – use the tag name, not the tag id. [thumbnailgrid cat=’1′ posts=’5′ type=’post’ order_by=’author’ order=’ASC’]” Will display the thumbnails for the 5 most recent posts from the category with the id of 1 sorted by the author name in ascending order [thumbnailgrid] Will display the thumbnails using the default value in the Reading settings Blog pages show at most. Examples: [bkthumbnailgrid category=“4″ limit=“5″] displays the thumbnails for the first 5 bookmarks where the link category is 4. [bkthumbnailgrid orderby=“owner“ order=“DESC“] displays all thumbnails for all bookmarks ordered descending by the name of the owner. Shortcodes Most properties can be set in the style sheet or in the custom css module for your theme. The following settings are shortcode settings that apply to individual grids. Note that for width and height values you may use any valid unit of height: px, cm, %, etc. Note: Media Image sizes are configured in the wordpress admin panel under Settings/Media. The default thumbnail size is 150px by 150px. The style sheet is configured to handle the default thumbnail size. To properly display your images, you must modify the height and witdth in the thumbanil shortcode or the style sheet. Visit [ShooflySolutions](http://www.shooflysolutions.com/software/featured-image-thumbnail-grid-for-wordpress/) for demos. height The height of thumbnail image. This value defaults to the height of the thumbnail or the setting in the style sheet. width The width of the thumbnail image. This value defaults to the width of the thumbnail or the setting in the style sheet. To display an image proportionately, set this value to ‘auto’; gridwidth The width of the grid. this value defaults to the width of the grid area or to the setting in the style sheet. maxgridwidth The maximum width of the grid. This is the better option to use when aligning grid left/right/center if you want the grid to wrap showcaption Set showcaption=FALSE to hide the captions showcaption defaults to TRUE captionheight This value sets the caption height and hides the overflow (if there is more text than can fit into the caption area, it will not be visible). The display defaults to one line of text or the value in the style sheet. captionwidth The caption width. This value defaults to the width variable above or to the setting in the style sheet. wraptext Wrap the text in the caption. Normally the text is limited to one line and overflow is indicated by an elipses. Please note that, to avoid a misaligned grid, you should set a caption height when wrapping text in a grid that has more than one row. wraptext defaults to FALSE aligngrid When the gridwidth value is set, set this value to left, right, center or autocenter (uses jQuery) imagesize Media Image sizes are configured in the wordpress admin panel under Settings/ Media. You can use any size in the plugin. The default value is ‘thumb’. thumb thumbnail medium large post-thumbnail (To proportionately size images, try setting the height =“100%“ width=“auto“) Added support for codex features that were not loading through the shortcode: before show posts before a specific date. As a feature of this plugin, you can set this field to before=“today“ after show posts after a specific date. As a feature of this plugin, you can set this field to after=“today“ inclusive include the before and/or after date in the query post__not_in exclude posts (comma delimited id’s) in this list post__in include posts (comma delimited id’s) in this list post_parent__in include posts (comma delimited id’s) with parent id’s in this list. Would be handy for post_type=“page“ post_parent__not_in exclude posts (comma delimited id’s) with parent id’s in this list. Would be handy for post_type=“page“ tag_slug__and include posts (comma delimited strings) with tags that match all of the tag slugs in this list. tag_slug__in exclude posts (comma delimited strings) that have a tag that matches any of the tags in this list debug_query for advanced users or upon request for support purposes, set debug_query =true to view the SQL query. ### Arbitrary section Need more?

You will see that it is set to 10. To override this in the thumbnail plugin, use a fixed value for posts_per_page or try setting the posts_per_page value to ’999′. All of the thumbnails for your posts( as long as you do not have more than 999 posts), should display. This should work: [thumbnailgrid posts_per_page =’999′] – How do I control the number of thumbnails that appear? – This plugin is not designed to show several pages of thumbnails, rather it is designed to allow you to embed thumbnails into any page or to display a subset of thumbnails on a page. To show more thumbnails on a page than the default value „Blog pages show at most“ (See the second screenshot on the screenshot tab), use a fixed value for posts_per_page or try setting the posts_per_page value to ’ 999′. * I can’t add a thumbnail to my posts.- Your theme must be enabled for post thumbnails. * How do I change the Height & Width on a single post or page?

Using the Custom CSS plugin: Copy & Paste the styles below. Replace the width and height with the width and height that you would like to use. You can also change the space around the thumbnail by changing the padding. !important ensures that your custom style will have priority over the default style. Start Copy & Paste Below this line .postimage, .postimage img { width: 150px!important; height: 150px!important; }. griditemleft { width: 150px!important; padding: 10px!important; } End Copy & Paste Above this line Save this change. When you are testing your view, make sure that you refresh the page. If you mess it up, just delete it and start over. * How do I center the grid on individual posts or pages? You must set the width of the grid in order to center it. You can set the grid width in the shortcode by using the gridwidth in the shortcode. [thumbnailgrid gridwidth=“500px“] How do I center the grid on all pages? If your theme does not have a custom css module, you can install a custom css plugin( do a search for the plugin Simple Custom CSS). Once installed, it should show up in your Appearance menu.

Found a lot of references to shortcodes, but couldn’t actually find working demos/ examples for a solid 20 minutes after installing. Instructions on the plugin page/ settings weren’t very helpful, had to go to the author’s website. Seems like information that could be easily included on the Wordpress plugin homepage or in the Admin settings. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f1c5cd8e9e9770018acd32c94b89cf4c87193f2cbf219e5ec88761e3a6571ac7? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Thank You for Great Plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/thank-you-for-great-plugin-2/)󠁿 [wpexpert.zahid](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wpexpertzahid/) 3. september, 2016 1 reply Thank You Adrian For such nice plugin. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/6b9b756654e719f96753f2e1f57a2436bd3b254b06e63fd10021a469ddd0c9f8? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[The best thumbnail gallery plugin.

FANTASTIC](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-cant-believe-i-havent-rated-this-yet-fantastic/)󠁿 [pazzaglia](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pazzaglia1/) 3. september, 2016 1 reply I’ve been using this plug-in for YEARS. It is on one of the most trafficked pages on my website – a visual archive or recipes. Without it I would have had to spend days, weeks or months trying to figure out how to tweak PHP. Instead it was really easy to get this to work out of the box and the plug-in author has continued to maintain and change it. A while back, I posted in support that none of the thumbnails had and „ALT“ attribute and that this was seen as an error from W3C website checker. Guess what?!?! She updated the plug-in to add this! Before that she did extensive trouble-shooting with me in the support forum to style the grid as I wanted. Really a FANTASTIC plug-in with FANTASTIC support. Thanks and keep-up the good work. I wish all the other plug-ins that I use were as well supported and updated as this one.
