Hey Johan,

This theme is meant to use attached images, not images within your content area. The content area is very narrow. This is a very custom theme, so I apologize for the inconvenience, but you'll need to remove those old images from the content area.

Thanks,
Justin

I actually think the best way to solve this would be

1.Insert images as I am used to but

2. You give me some code that would strip away images on the fly and leave post text only

That way images will show in RSS, I will be able to go back to another theme in future since there is inserted images in every post (just that this theme is not showing them).

So. Please provide me with info on which theme file needs to be modified and the code to do it.

Thanks

Just bought this theme

If you click on any of my posts youll notice that I have the images twice. Once in text area on the left and also on the image area to the right.

In the past ive always created blog posts by entering some text and then uploading images and inserting them to the post. But right now it seems you should never insert images to the post itself, just upload them via the images uploader but NOT inserting them?? Thats kind of weird because that means all my 100+ old posts will be looking very strange indeed. Not very logical at all.

So if I understand this correctly the theme fins images by looking at the attached images and NOT by what is inserted into post which you should not do.

If that is true I see 2 big problems.

1. What am im going to do with all my old posts? 99% of all themes rely on images inserted. I do no fancy editing all my old posts. Also, what if I want to go back to another theme? Then all my images will be gone..

2. What about RSS readers? If you dont actually insert any images I dont see how the RSS reader can find them images from your post?

Soory but Im not totally convinced on the logic here. Please tell me what is wrong with this theme or what I am doing wrong thanks.
