Hi!
I want to see my attached images when I'm browsing my archives. I can only view my pictures on the startpage and not in my categories. Using Thematic ver 0.9. Where can I fix this problem? I've looked around in the php files but can't find anything.

Hey,
copy archive.php and tag.php into your child theme's directory, open both files in your favorite editor and replace the_excerpt with the_content .. that's it.
I will add an option to switch between the_excerpt and the_content for the next release.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I tried the fix that you detailed above. It did not work for me. What am I missing?
thanks,

Update: The fix detailed above does work on my Monthly archives, but does not work on Category archives. What else needs to change so that full posts/images appear in the Category archives?
Thanks!

Aha!
Here is the answer.. my brain is slow today:
Copying the category.php into the child theme's directory and replacing the_excerpt with the_content

Is this solution still valid in Thematic 0.9.5.1? I can't find the_excerpt anywhere in the mentioned .php files.
Hi,
no .. this is no longer needed .. use the following code in your child theme's functions.php:
function childtheme_content($content) {
if (is_category()) {
$content= 'full';}
return $content;
}
add_filter('thematic_content', 'childtheme_content');Chris
worked brilliantly, thank you!

Hi Chris,
that new code didn't work for me somehow :-(
Still no pictures in the categories...
This is the my functions.php :
<?php
//
// Custom Child Theme Functions
//
// I've included a "commented out" sample function below that'll add a home link to your menu
// More ideas can be found on "A Guide To Customizing The Thematic Theme Framework"
// http://themeshaper.com/thematic-for-wordpress/guide-customizing-thematic-theme-framework/
// Adds a home link to your menu
// http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_page_menu
//function childtheme_menu_args($args) {
// $args = array(
// 'show_home' => 'Home',
// 'sort_column' => 'menu_order',
// 'menu_class' => 'menu',
// 'echo' => true
// );
// return $args;
//}
//add_filter('wp_page_menu_args','childtheme_menu_args');
?>
thanks for your help

Jens, You add the below to the main functions.php file if you are not using a child theme. That should fix your issue.
function childtheme_content($content) {
if (is_category()) {
$content= 'full';}
return $content;
}
add_filter('thematic_content', 'childtheme_content');
The code above worked beautifully for categories. I don't use a childtheme, so I pasted the code in my main functions.php file. That being said, it didn't work for archives. How can I get images to come up for both?
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
HI! I would like to show images in my category search as well, so I tryes do copy the code in the (functions.php), but it's not working, what's the 'main functions.php file' ?
I use thematc without a child theme. Do I have to make changes elswhere than functions.php ?
My functions.php looks now like this:
<?php
function childtheme_content($content) {
if (is_category()) {
$content= 'full';}
return $content;
}
add_filter('thematic_content', 'childtheme_content');
?>
function childtheme_content($content) {
if (is_category()) {
$content= 'full';}
return $content;
}
add_filter('thematic_content', 'childtheme_content');

@simsim: The developers recommend that Thematic is used with a child theme - the idea is that even if you upgrade Thematic, your child theme will (usually) not be affected. :) Therefore the functions.php pertains to the one in the child theme folder, rather than the /thematic folder.
I think it's a really great concept. You just upload /thematic as usual, but don't activate it. Then create a folder under /themes/ called 'simsim' for instance, and your new functions.php, style.css and whatnots all go under /simsim.
p/s: /thematic comes with a sample child theme folder with a sample style.css to get you started.
Thank a lot for the quick respnose, I will try!
@simsim: Don't forget your <? and ?> at the start and end of the child theme functions.php.
So something like:
<?
Lots of code here
?>Make sure there are no blank lines after the last ?>
