Autofocus images on homepage how to
-
Hello,
I was wondering if someone can explain to me very quickly how to create posts where the images show up as thumbnails on the homepage as seen in the demo template: http://autofocusdemo.wordpress.com/
I have been trying to recreate this for days now. I’ve uploaded the images to the library, tried to post them as images in the post, as a featured image to be shown, and deleting all the posts all together to try to create a gallery. I can’t find that option either.
Please help if you know what I’m missing. I have a feeling it’s something simple, but I haven’t been able to figure it out on my own.
Thanks so much!

I hope this is helpful. 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.
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. http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/
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. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/autofocus-front-page-question-featured-image-conversion?replies=3#post-768789

Hi, TimeThief!!
I’ve actually been searching the forums for help with this before I asked and I saw you as a frequent incredibly commentor, so I feel privileged you’re responding! :)
I did not see the last link to the thread you posted and it FINALLY showed up. I’ll keep playing around later (I’m at work now) to make sure I’ve got it.
Thanks so much!!
