Adding an image to featured post widget Bueno theme

    Hi!

    I seem to be a bit slow, as in searching the forums it appears this is possible, but I can't figure out how. I'm using the Bueno featured post widget in my sidebar with my blogs recipe category, and I can't figure out how to have the image from the original post come up in the sidebar widget. Is this possible? In fact, I wouldn't even mind JUST the image with the post's title--right now, I'm getting the title and excerpt, but I can't figure out how to add the image from the post automatically. Thanks!

    The blog I need help with is wemeatagain.com.

    Is the image in the post a Featured Image?

    Hmm, I'm not sure what a featured image is?

    Great, thanks so much for your help everyone! I've got the featured images part figured out, but I'm still not wild about how this widget looks in the sidebar. I know this is probably a long shot, but is there any way to:

    1. Have ONLY the image show up, rather than the excerpt from the post as well? Or at least, to have the text of the excerpt wrap around the image. Right now, the image is so small compared to the amount of text present...

    2. Limit the number of featured posts to less than five?

    Thanks again!

    1. Wrap around? Not without the paid CSS upgrade. Only image showing up? Yes: type a space in the Excerpt module of the post editor.
    2. No.

    Oh, great! Nice trick with the space, panaghiotisadam. Thanks!
