Hello,

We have 2 questions related to RSS images.

First of all, when we subscribe to our own RSS (marronyblanco.com/feed), the featured images are not showed. How can we solve this?

And the other question:

We have added an RSS into the sidebar. But it shows only texts, without thumbnails. Do you know how to add the thumbnails of this external RSS source in the sidebar widget?

Thank you again.

Hi,

Please use this filter in functions.php file: 

// THIS INCLUDES THE THUMBNAIL IN OUR RSS FEED
function insertThumbnailRSS($content) {
global $post;
if ( has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID ) ){
$content = '' . get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'thumbnail', array('style' => 'margin-bottom:10px;float:right;') ) . '' . $content;
}
return $content;
}

add_filter('the_excerpt_rss', 'insertThumbnailRSS');
add_filter('the_content_feed', 'insertThumbnailRSS');

Hope this helps!
The rss widget comes from WordPress and you will need custom work for that. You can also try to find a plugin that dose that.

Thanks
