I found that one of the plug-ins was causing the problem: WordTube (for embedding YouTube); when I removed it the feature text reappeared on the home page.

Just in case anyone else has this problem.

Thanks,

Tom

I have also just experienced my featured text no longer appearing on the home page (just the titles). I had done nothing to the index.php page.

I looked in both places which have been mentioned in the index.php, and even reloaded it a couple of times.

Nothing.

Most discouraging..I did a lot of work today without periodic backup, and I don't even know how to fix it.

I do love the theme, though, and want to make it work.

Hope someone can help…

Awesome, Dude

Hi Michael

I didn't change that line, this is my index.php. As you can see I made some little changes, but no code involved (I don't know php).

Thank you

Did you change anythng in the code of index.php in the “featured articles” module? Normally it looks like this:

// “Featured articles” module begins
query_posts('showposts=3&cat=7'); ?>
<h3>
<?php
// name of the “featured articles” category gets printed
wp_list_categories('include=7&title_li=&style=none'); ?>
</h3>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class=”feature”>
<?php
// this grabs the image filename
$values = get_post_custom_values(”featuredarticleimage”);
// this checks to see if an image file exists
if (isset($values[0])) {
?>
<a href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>”><img src=”<?php bloginfo('url'); echo '/'; echo get_option('upload_path'); echo '/';
// this is where the custom field prints images for each Feature
$values = get_post_custom_values(”featuredarticleimage”); echo $values[0]; ?>” alt=”featuredimage” /></a>
<?php } ?>
<a href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark” class=”title”>
<?php
// title of the “featured articles”
the_title(); ?>
</a>

<?php the_content_rss('', TRUE, '', 20); ?>

Hello

First of all; your theme is beatiful and I just finished changing the theme of my blog. So thank you for your excellent work.

Perhaps I'm wrong and I can't display any text in the featured article on my blog home page; I tried with many custom field (example featuredarticletext) but I don't get the text.

THank you in advance
