I am trying to: insert a standard post featured image into a content template

I visited this URL: hidden link but this won't work unless you change your hosts file to 134.213.206.16 for this sub-domain name

I expected to see:

<img src="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" class="wp-post-image" alt="100134.png" />

Instead, I got:

<img width="1" height="1" src="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="100134.png" />

Hi Mark,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

I'm not able to see the link that you sent to me. Is it on a private server?

Also could you try doing this and let me know what the output is.

[wpv-post-featured-image output='url']

Thanks,
Shane

Thank you for your response. The link won't work unless you change your hosts file to 134.213.206.16 for this sub-domain name. Details for both Mac and PC at:
hidden link

(if you're able to do that) I'd be pleased to send you a log-in account for the WordPress back office by email.

I'm unable to test whether including output='url' will solve the issue at the moment (because my development zone's hosting server is not fully working this afternoon) but as soon as I can respond about that, I will.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for keeping me updated.

I'll add this to my host files and have a look.

Also please let me know the result as soon as possible.

Hello Shane,

I've made some progress by trial and error. The changes I made were recorded in a text file, a screenshot of which is attached.

I'd really appreciate your comments when you have time because I want to code this correctly rather than 'fudge it' myself using trial and error until something happens to work on my computer and on my screen.

Hi Mark,

So the real problem is if we let the shortcode render the entire url itself.

The best solution would be to manually wrap the shortcode in a img tag to render the image like this.

<img src="[wpv-post-featured-image output='url']" />

Ofcourse you can still add other attributes to the shortcode but it should render the image correctly now.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
