  I am using the Auto Focus Theme. The them randomly selects photos to show on the front page for each blog post. This feature stopped working. My last three posts are showing a blank. How can I fix this? Is it a bug in the theme?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  AutoFocus – detailed theme description
  http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/autofocus/

  AutoFocus’ prominent single post featured images, which when set manually are placed front and center, above your post’s title and content. The maximum width of single post featured images is 800.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options
  If you don’t see the Featured Image module on your Add New or Edit Post page, please make sure you’ve selected Featured Image in your Screen Options.

  AutoFocus responds to not only single image posts but also full galleries. If you would prefer to forego a large featured image above your post content and instead showcase an entire set of photos then simply insert a gallery into your post without manually setting a featured image.

  Main page and archive pages on Autofocus don’t rely on featured images. Featured images have to be set manually to each post. Each post on the main page and on category/archive pages will display a regularly inserted image (provided the image had been uploaded via the Add Media button of that post).

  The only difference is when you view a single complete post: regular image shows below the post title, max width 590px, featured image shows above the post title, max width 800px.

  Thanks for the help. However it is not the feature image I am speaking of. I have been using blogsy to post from my ipad for months now and the autofocus theme has been randomly selecting a photo from each post to show in a collage of posts… sorted by date. When I post to Facebook, the image shows. This is why I think it is an issue. It has been working since July of last year and for the past 3 posts has stopped working. Help please : )

  I cannot help you so I’ll tag this thread for a Staff follow-up. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

  P.S. As your issue involves both Blogsy and an Ipad you may want to post to the IOs forums. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the ios support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers and make the developers aware of your issue.

  As there haven’t been any recent changes to this theme, could you please try making your next post via the regular WordPress.com dashboard on a laptop or desktop computer, to rule out an issue with Blogsy? Thanks. Let me know how it goes.
