Minimum Featured Image Help

[amandac]

Hi everyone,
I am using the minimum theme and I love it, however, I was wondering if you could help me make a few changes.
I would love the blog posts on the homepage to show the featured image. Is this possible to do easily?
Secondly, when you click on the post it shows the featured image largely at the top of the page. Is there away to have it NOT do this.

You can remove the featured images on the inner pages by altering this function in functions.php:

/** Add the featured image section */
add_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'minimum_featured_image' );
function minimum_featured_image() {
	if ( is_home() ) {
		echo '<div id="featured-image"><img src="'. get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/images/sample.jpg" /></div>';
	}
	elseif ( is_singular( array( 'post', 'page' ) ) && has_post_thumbnail() ){
		echo '<div id="featured-image">';
		echo get_the_post_thumbnail($thumbnail->ID, 'header');
		echo '</div>';
	}
}

to

/** Add the featured image section */
add_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'minimum_featured_image' );
function minimum_featured_image() {
	if ( is_home() ) {
		echo '<div id="featured-image"><img src="'. get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/images/sample.jpg" /></div>';
	}
}

In home.php, you can alter the grid loop to include featured images, by changing the grid_image_size.

add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'minimum_grid_loop_helper' );
function minimum_grid_loop_helper() {

	if ( function_exists( 'genesis_grid_loop' ) ) {
		genesis_grid_loop( array(
			'features' 				=> 0,
			'feature_image_size' 	=> 'featured',
			'feature_image_class' 	=> 'post-image',
			'feature_content_limit' => 0,
			'grid_image_size'		=> 0,
			'grid_image_class'		=> 'alignnone',
			'grid_content_limit' 	=> 250,
			'more'					=> __( '[Read more]', 'minimum' ),
		) );
	} else {
		genesis_standard_loop();
	}

}

Like

'grid_image_size'			=> 'grid-thumbnail',

You'll also need to register an image size (or use one already registered in functions.php) and maybe even add a bit of css.

add_image_size('grid-thumbnail', 100, 100, TRUE);

Thank you so so much! It all worked perfectly. Thank you for being so clear in your directions. I really appreciate it.
