I transferred all my articles from my old blog to my new blog with the official WordPress import tool. All articles have been adopted and all pictures are in the media library. However, the featured images are missing, they are not assigned to the articles. The IDs of the articles have not changed.
any ideas?
I had this similar problem with wordpress export tool. I tried this plugin Export Featured Images and it still works, you can try that.

Recently I developed a wordpress theme and I want to put in themeorest. I need to export all of my demo content which are in localhost installed wordpress, So customers can easily make their website like as what is shown in demo theme.
Now I want to know how can I export that demo content and how to import theme easily?
The content such as posts, categories, pages and of course media library. WordPress's default import/exporter can't do what I want.
Well, I tried some ways, but the easiest one was WordPress's export/import way. I simply exported the content using All Content option, then easily it can be used to import the content anywhere else.
But keep in mind the site we exporting it's content, SHOULD be an online installation and not be in localhost. In this way all media's URL will be a downloadable link, So content's all media will be downloaded and sit in their position in posts and pages.
It there such a plugin in wordpress that can take a list of links to arbitrary websites and return/display the newest content, like for example newest published article?
You're going to want an RSS plugin for this, the best one available seems to be http://www.wprssaggregator.com/
This will let you import RSS feeds from external websites into posts and such.
I have a Joomla blog running, with a custom way of using article images.
For each article created, its image has to be uploaded to an images folder using the title format "article_image_xxx" where xxx represents the post's ID. Then when displaying the article, Joomla reads the image and shows it up.
I am now setting up a WordPress site, and have migrated all the Joomla posts into WordPress.
It worked like a charm using the FG Joomla to WordPress plugin, and all the posts were imported maintaining their Joomla article ID.
However, in order to set up the Featured Image, I need to do it manually post per post.
I have checked if there were plugins addressing this problem, but found nothing.
I don't want to go over more than a thousand articles, and since the problem is pretty much specific to my case, I want to create some function that I can run.
What's the best way to approach this using WordPress functions?
What I have in mind is something like this (pseudocode):
posts = get_all_posts;
foreach posts as post {
post_id = post[id];
post_featured_image = "uploads/article_image".post_id;
wordpress_function_set_featured_image(post_id, post_featured_image);
}
Can anyone shed some light on how to proceed?
I wish to make a gallery similar to http://welovewp.com
Can anyone guess, how this is made ?
Is there any already existing plugin or do we need to code for that ourselves.
Thanks :)
Some gallery plugins for WP:

For an extensive list of gallery plugins, try the WordPress.org plugins site:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/
BTW, the site you're linking to doesn't seem to be using a gallery plugin.
They're using a list of posts with a featured image and URL styled in HTML & CSS.
Indranil has given you options for generating galleries out of photos stored on your server. If your photos are stored on some photo sharing website, you'll have search for those kind of specific plugins.
For example, if your photos are stored on Flickr, you can try any of these 3 plugins -
Awesome Flickr Gallery
Slickr-Flickr
Flickr Gallery
This website is based on wordpress, I wonder which plugin/theme are they using to customize wordpress into a gallery/download site.
Many thanks for your help!
I think you can do this with WordPress' thumbnail feature. You can assign a thumbnail to each post. It looks like that, and some tweaking to the theme in the way the posts are displayed and the download button is included.
Maybe there's a plugin to assign a file to download on each post, that's the only part I find complex in this theme.
