var_dump(PHP_VERSION);
- How can I choose which thumbs to display?
-
You enter a search string (the thumbs are found using the search engine from deviantArt). You can read more about search options there.
- Quick tips:
-
- -in:scraps excludes scraps
- boost:popular gets the most popular thumbs, instead of the newest
- How can I modifify the carousel skin?
-
You can edit
deviant-thumbs/inc/carousel/carousel.css
. - Why isn’t the cache working?
-
Probably because your wp-uploads folder isn’t writable. You will have to chmod it to 757. If you don’t know how, read Changing File Permissions.
