Hey guys. Here’s the page where I am running the short code. Look towards the bottom of the page.

The short code I am using:

[srr_feed urls=”hhttp://feeds.feedburner.com/TheJalopyJournal” color_style=”none” count=3 show_author=1 show_date=1 show_thumb=1 strip_desc=1 display_type=”grid” grid_columns=3 thumbnail_force=”when_absent” thumbnail_position=”cover” thumbnail_size=”64px”]

I can’t for the life of me get the thumbnails to display. What am I doing wrong?

Copied the wrong short code above… I’m actually using:

[srr_feed urls=”http://jalopyjournal.com/?feed=rss2″ color_style=”none” count=3 show_author=1 show_date=1 show_thumb=1 strip_desc=1 display_type=”grid” grid_columns=3 thumbnail_force=”when_absent” thumbnail_position=”cover” thumbnail_size=”64px”]

Hi Ryan,

Sorry for the late reply.

Super RSS Reader fetches thumbnail directly from the website by checking the “open graph image tags” which is the standard across.

The RSS feed page you are trying does not have an og:image meta tags.

This is the only way any application knows what image to pick from the page. Otherwise it is clueless to parse the entire HTML for an image.

Below is a open graph checker which says the same – https://www.opengraph.xyz/url/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jalopyjournal.com%2F%3Fp%3D53445

If you own that website, please use a plugin to insert open graph tags or you may request the owner to do the same. https://yoast.com/help/getting-open-graph-for-your-articles/

Thanks,
