Tech Wordpress: One line of php. Can anyone help? - GoFuckYourself.com

hausarzt · 11-19-2019, 04:07 AM

Hey guys.
I recently bought a Wordpress theme from a couple of guys who do not have such a good reputation here in the forum.
The support, unfortunately, does not answer, so I'm here to ask if anyone can help with a line php.

Google says the video-tag for "thumbnailUrl" is missing. This sucks, because the theme is meant for videos.

This is the code on the theme:

Code:

<meta itemprop="thumbnailUrl" content="<?php echo $thumb; ?>" />

This is the output on my site:

Code:

<meta itemprop="thumbnailUrl" content="" />

Yepp, I have added a featured image/thumbnail to each post, but somehow there is no output. So i guess, there is a small glitch in the php code.
I tried several codes, to get at least something.
Example:

Code:

<meta itemprop="thumbnailUrl" content="<?php echo $get_the_post_thumbnail_url; ?>" />

<meta itemprop="thumbnailUrl" content="<?php echo the_post_thumbnail_url; ?>" />

I even tried this, just for a test, if anything comes up:

Code:

<meta itemprop="thumbnailUrl" content="<?php echo $title; ?>" />

And, voila, I get the title of the post. So basically the meta itemprop="thumbnailUrl" content=" is correct, only the php-part is not.

Solution?

I'm going offline now but get_the_post_thumbnail_url and the_post_thumbnail_url are functions so you call them like this

Code:

<?php get_the_post_thumbnail_url(); ?>
<?php the_post_thumbnail_url(); ?>

Check the WP reference for usage (image size etc):
https://developer.wordpress.org/refe...thumbnail_url/
https://developer.wordpress.org/refe...thumbnail_url/

Yepp, already tried both. No success.

I had a similar problem recently. Does the theme use custom fields for images rather than native wordpress featured images perhaps?

*edit*
If you are talking about a WP-Script theme, copy the featured image url to "Main thumbnail" block and update post.
