Customizing Karma Theme: Gallery Thumbnails WordPress

John Tarnoff comments:

thanks. Please see the website: www.futureoftheindustry.org.

Note that the video posts show the built-in thumbnail on the homepage slider, on the post itself, but not in the gallery called "Videos." See also the developer's explanation.

I want the thumbnails on the Videos page to be the built-in thumbnails, not the "featured image" thumbnail that must be loaded additionally.

John Tarnoff comments:

Your solution appears to work, but I want to preserve the formatting of the page in my Theme and not use a new format that is not consistent. So I would not want to use your template.

Here is the functions.php

<?php

//check WP_DEBUG, if set to true, we suppress warning, notice, deprecated, and user notice
//If wpcu3er is activated, this wpcu3er plugin suppress all errors even if WP_DEBUG is set to true,
//need to set display_errors to 1 in wpcu3er plugin to allow errors for troubleshooting
if(defined('WP_DEBUG') == 1 || WP_DEBUG == true){
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE ^ E_WARNING ^ E_DEPRECATED ^ E_USER_NOTICE);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
}


// Required TrueThemes Framework - do not edit
require_once(TEMPLATEPATH . '/truethemes_framework/truethemes_framework_init.php');

// Load translation text domain
load_theme_textdomain ('truethemes_localize');



// **** Add your custom codes below this line ****

Hi. just come back from the work.
I didn't ask you to use my template, it was just an example. For your theme I think it's necessary to send me it if you want to be able to resolve the problem.
Good luck.

John Tarnoff comments:

Here is the theme package.
Please let me know exactly what you would do. Would it be safer for you to make changes to the child theme instead of the main theme? Also, please refer me to other people you have done work for on this site to validate your skills.

Thanks!

Hi.
You can visit my profile at donanza for more information about me:
[[LINK href="http://donanza.me/hadi060"]]http://donanza.me/hadi060[[/LINK]]
If you send me the theme package I'll test changes in localhost (in my PC), then tell you what to do.
Good luck.

I attached the karma.zip file to my last reply. Please confirm that you received it, thanks.
