Hey Joern,
Thanks for the great tip about renaming featured o to arthfeatured. That allowed the fCG to float to the left. Anyways as you can see it is now covering the headline thumb and excerpt and below it appeared a featured post.
How do you make sure that you move the headline post/thumb below it and also remove the featured post from showing?
Thanks
Omar
your headline image is not in div 'headline' anymore...
check the source code of your site, you put the gallery in front of
<?php the_title(); ?>it seems for me.
When I said put it in front of the title I didn't mean into the title tag of a link, I mean in front of div class="title".
Actually it should be outside this headline loop, before
<?php query_posts("showposts=1&category_name=Headline"); ?>or after the next
<?php endwhile; ?>

jOERN,
My headline image/text disappear and one of my featured posts takes place of it in the headline div region.
Here is my index.php code including the FCG insertion code
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php if(!is_paged()) { ?>
<div id="top" class="clearfloat">
<div id="headline">
<img src="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/wp-content/themes/arthemia/images/headline.png" width="75px" height="21px" alt="" />
<?php query_posts("showposts=1&category_name=Headline"); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="title">" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></div>
<?php include (ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/featured-content-gallery/gallery.php'); ?>
<div class="meta">[<?php the_time('j M Y') ?> | <?php comments_popup_link('No Comment', 'One Comment', '% Comments');?> | <?php if(function_exists('the_views')) { the_views(); } ?>]</div>

<div class="left"><?php previous_posts_link('« Previous Page') ?></div>
<?php } ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
I basically want
The headline title
my FCG
and then the headline excerpt
Lastly, if I wanted to exclude a post from the frontpage I would put
a (-) right, can you give me the codex for it and tell me where I would insert it.
That is about it for today. Once I get the FCG working then I can figure out the rest. Thanks a million!
Can you quickly show me what I am doing wrong.
Thanks
Omar
just now it shows:
The headline title
my FCG
and then the headline excerpt
there is however a problem with your div class="meta"
it shows in source code like:
<div class="meta"></div>[18 May 2010 |....
means it's closing before the date and comments, don't know why
To exclude one post from a loop you should 'continue' the loop if this post-ID occurs
in a standard loop like this:
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); if( $post->ID == '222' ) continue; ?>reads: the loop will repeat as normal and just jump the post with the ID of 222
in Arthemia in the frontlist (lower part) the original code looks like this:
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>modified to jump post ID 123 it should look like this
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); if( $post->ID == '123' ) continue; ?>It might display one post less than before

Joern,
The title is showing up for the headline post, followed by the FCG, but below it should be my headline excerpt and it's image. It is not showing up.
Instead the headline excerpt/image is being replaced by a featured image and post content.
Here is the screenshot

I figured it out.
Here is what I did. The FCG works on you gong into the settings and setting what posts to display. So I saw that post 452 was the post ID of the real estate post that it displayed below the FCG container rather than the headline excerpt and it was inputted into the posts text box for the FCG to show. I simply replaced this number with the post iD of the headline post and it works now.
Awesome.
