I’m trying to place an image above the title. Is there a way to call the post’s featured image (if one exists) before the post’s title?
Try an action hook widget along with the PHP widget. Drag a PHP widget to the appropriate action hook widget area (something above the title) and use this code:
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
This link will show you how to style the thumbnail size: http://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Thumbnails#Styling_Post_Thumbnails
Or you can use this custom css:
.attachment-post-thumbnail {style info;}
Not tested; YMMV.
I’m also trying to place breadcrumbs beneath the post title, before the content. Is there a way to position breadcrumbs between the title and the content? I’m using Breadcrumb NavXT.
Again, action hook widget area and the PHP widget.
Try this code in the PHP widget:
<div class="breadcrumbs">
<?php if(function_exists('bcn_display'))
{
bcn_display();
}?>
</div>
You might want to change the class of the <div>
(.my-breadcrumbs
for instance) so you can style your breadcrumbs how you like and hide the ones the plugin is adding.
Again, not tested; YMMV. And someone may come up with a simpler method.
