In my browser, your code is reflected as having a “puzzled” emoticon ;? which is obviously not what you intended (unless your php accepts cute smiley faces as valid syntax!). Would it be possible to put this as a text file download link, so that the formatting is correct? It does not work on my site – it just doesn’t display anything at all.

@Kevin I tried to find out more information about creating a Google News sitemap, but couldn’t find directions on how to do it. Can you point me to something that describes how to create a Google News sitemap?

Comment on Giving each WordPress post a thumbnail, and display the thumbnail on the home page by Ryan

Support for custom post thumbnails has now been added into WordPress core for version 2.9. Simply upload an image, then click “use as post thumbnail” and if you theme uses the new functionality the thumbnail will appear along with your post.
To test out the new functionality you will need to download WordPress Trunk rather than the current stable release (2.8.5) as it hasn’t been released into the current stable version yet.
You can see it in action in the blog section of my site … http://pixopoint.com/

You don’t need the 3 letter ID for Google News so long as you use a Google News sitemap.

I have a loop that i use to display a carousel at the top of my site. Currently it displays all entries, but I want to use your code to restrict the outputted images and info to only posts in a specific category.
Where would I add you code into this loop?

$dock = new WP_Query();
$dock->query( ’showposts=8′ );
while( $dock->have_posts() ) : $dock->the_post();
?>

I want to have the posts appear on the homepage, with a page of text above the posts. Is that possible using this code?

Comment on Using different style sheets for different templates by SistahHollywood

AWESOME! I’m using your solution to customize a client’s categories … every other solution I tried was soooooo messy. This is simple and to the point.
I’m not savvy in php but will attempt to use this to include child-categories for a parent category.
Thanks again!
