PB2: A Bug in WP 2.8 and PB Auto Thumbnail Insertion

WordPress 2.8 has been released and I found a problem with Photo-Biyori running on 2.8.

Problem
After uploading/inserting a image and saving draft, the code of thumbnail sometimes won’t be inserted into the excerpt field.

Cause
A bug of WordPress 2.8 reported here (ticket #9471)
It should be fixed in WP 2.8.1.

Solution
Be sure to “save draft” before uploading a file.

Please let me know if you find any other problem with PB on WP 2.8.
Thank you.

  • Is there a way I can manually fix the excerpt? I’ve tried saving the draft before I upload the picture and it isn’t helping. The excerpt just continues to stay blank. When I try and type in the excerpt box and publish, the excerpt disappears. Is there a way I can fix this?

    • hi nadia,
      if you delete (or comment out) the line below:
      add_filter(‘excerpt_save_pre’, ‘pb_insert_excerpt’);
      from functions.php (the second lne from the last), it won’t try to add the excerpt code.

      the bug fix is scheduled at WP2.8.4. hope it will fix this issue.

      thank you!

      • I come from Taiwan. I really love your theme ” Photo-Biyori 2.0.1″. But I have the same problem as Nadia. My WordPress version is 2.8.4. In addition, may I use the photo size more than 500 pixels just like the website “Lost in Pixels” (http://www.lostinpixels.hu/)? Thank you very much! Hope I can use it online as soon as possible.

        P.S. My test website is: http://www.k711.url.tw/photo/

    • Hi. I love your theme and it’s working well for me, but with one problem. I can only get two thumbnails to display at the bottom of the page at a time. Here’s my site: http://www.ajaabney.com/house Thanks for your help!

  • Thank you for replying me quickly, Tomo. The problem is persisted in my WordPress 2.8.4. Perhaps I am using MS IE 8 on MS Win XP system. I do not try the feasibility on Google Chrome or Mozilla FireFox. By the way, I installed the version of WordPress 2.7.1. The Photo-Biyori 2.0.1 works well. In addition, I will wait the stable version of WordPress 2.8.X or even later vesion 2.9.X. Thank you very much! :)

  • Sorry to bother you. I fixed it! I was just editing an old post, so I tried uploading a new copy of the image and it worked fine. Thanks!
