List category thumbnails does not work

    This is what I have:
    [catlist id=28 orderby=date order=desc numberposts=0 date=yes thumbnails=yes]

    everything else works except for the thumbnail part. You can see the page here:
    http://wherespoople.com/our-travel/

    it's the first list under Follow Us On Our Journey.

    I'm also using "Generate Post Thumbnails" plugin (which I tried deactivating, but that didn't fix the problem)
    I've also tried turning off the dynamic image resizer that came with the theme I'm using.

    Any idea why this feature-that-I'd-really-really love doesn't work? :)

    Thanks!

    Ok, I'm trying to hack this one line at a time.
    P.S. : I know nothing about PHP so there's a big chance I'm making this a lot more complicated that I have to.

    For once I found that inside list-cat-posts.php I have to change

    'thumbnail' => 'no'

    to

    'thumbnails' => 'no'


    Then I noticed that inside default.php the lcp.thumbnails is not being called so I added:
    if($atts['thumbnails'] == yes){
    $lcp_output .= '<div class="lcp_thumbnail">'. lcp_thumbnails($single) . '</div>';
    }

    inside the loop.

    Now this sort of works. The image shows up but it's in its original size. Which is huge.
    That's as far as I got.

    Please, test this functionality which has been updated on version 0.13.2.

    Thanks!

    Hi Fernando,
    Thanks for the update.
    [catlist id=28 orderby=date order=desc numberposts=0 date=yes thumbnail=yes] brings up the thumbnail (so Yay!), but still doesn't shrink it :(

    Hi all,

    Thanks for the solution - very helpful. If you want to shrink the thumbnail use CSS:
    <code>
    .lcp_catlist img{
    width: 100px;
    height: 55px;
    float: left;
    margin-right: 20px;
    }
    .lcp_catlist li {
    height:100px;
    list-style-type: none;
    }
    </code 

    Do you know how to make all <li> an anchor (text+thumb) ????

    I can't figure out how to get the thumbnails to show up in thumbnail size.

Howdy, Stranger!
