== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= Filters =
**upw_enqueue_styles** *(boolean)*
Allows changing whether to load the template CSS file(s).
**upw_wp_query_args** *(array)*
Allows changing the WP_Query arguments for the widget.
**upw_custom_template_path** *(string)*
Allows changing the default custom template path.
= Templates =
**legacy**
As of version 2.0.0 we changed the widget HTML markup. For installs prior to 2.0.0 you can use the legacy template to retain the old HTML markup and compatibility.
**standard**
The new standard template as of version 2.0.0. It features better HTML5 markup, improved styling on various themes without the need for custom CSS, and hfeed microformat.
**custom**
As of version 2.0.0 you can now provide your own custom template files. To do this, create a directory named `upw` in your theme and copy a template from the plugin's `templates` directory. Edit as needed.
Then, in the widget settings under the *Display* tab, choose *Custom* from the *Template* drop down. In the *Custom Template Name* field that appears and enter the file name of your template (excluding .php). For example, if your template is named `custom.php` then enter `custom` in the *Custom Template Name* field.
= Images sizes =
*As of version 2.0.0, the plugin no longer supports setting custom image sizes from the widget options panel.*
To change image sizes you can either edit the built-in sizes (thumbnail, medium, and large) or define a custom image size in your theme `functions.php`.
**Edit built-in image sizes:** Go to *Settings > Media* and change the image sizes as desired. Once image sizes are changed you will need to regenerate thumbnails to update any existing images. This can be done with [AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ajax-thumbnail-rebuild/) or [Regenerate Thumbnails](https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/) plugins. Note that this will affect image sizes for the entire site.
**Define a custom image size:** Edit your `functions.php` file and add a new image size with the `add_image_size` function. See the [WordPress codex for documentation](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size). Once the function is added, your custom size will be available to select from the widget options. Like editing a built-in size, you will need to regenerate thumbnails for existing images.
Example:
``
= Thumbnail images are not displaying =
*As of version 2.0.0 timthumb is no longer used.*
This plugin uses the [timthumb library](http://www.binarymoon.co.uk/projects/timthumb/) to resize post thumbnails. Please review these requirements and troubleshooting tips if you are having problems displaying thumbnails.
* Right click > view image - If an image isn't loading then this is the first thing you should do. 9 times out of 10 it will tell you what the problem is in an easy to read error message.
* JetPack plugin - There is a known conflict between JetPack's "Photon" component, please disable it for compatibility with timthumb.
* Server requirements - PHP and the GD image library must be installed on your web server. Normally most web servers include them by default.
* Cache permissions - The cache directory `wp-content/plugins/ultimate-posts-widget/cache` should be set to 777 or if that doesn't work, you may find 755 is ok.
* Image sizes - timthumb is configured to only work for images smaller than 1500 x 1500. The plugin and automatically selects the "Large" size from Settings > Media, if it is greater than 1500 x 1500 you will need to reduce the size or modify the configuration in `thumb.php` to support larger image sizes.
* Tilde(~) in url - timthumb has a known issue with this, please use a url without a tilde until a fix is available. [Bug report](https://code.google.com/p/timthumb/issues/detail?id=263)
* Thumbnail images only work with WordPress' native post thumbnail / featured image. Many theme use a custom image field for thumbnails, these are not supported.
**Still stuck?** See [additional troubleshooting tips](http://www.binarymoon.co.uk/2010/11/timthumb-hints-tips/) from the timthumb author.
