Put Your Face And Message To Revolt

Edit Your Head

You will find a headless header image in edit_head.jpg, in theme’s images folder (that’s /revolt_basic/images/). Edit as you wish to paste your own head or whatever you like, and save it back to head.jpg to overwrite default header.

Edit Your Message

Similarly, you will find an empty message image in edit_message.jpg, in theme’s images/ folder. Write down the message you want to shout to the world and save back as revoltmessage.jpg to overwrite the existing default message. Upload back these two images to server and you’re done !

Customize Revolt: Add Thumbnails

Automatic Thumbnails

By default, Revolt theme will automatically take the first image that’s in the gallery of your post as a thumbnail for the post. Please keep in mind that it will only work with the images you have uploaded through Upload/Insert interface (see the image), otherwise the thumbnail will not be automatically recognized. In other words, images hosted on other websites (such as Flicker) will not be automatically added to your post.

Select Thumbnail From Gallery

If you would like to use one of the images from the post’s gallery as a thumbnail but it isn’t the first one (so the automatic option is out of question), you can specify the number of the image from the gallery in a Custom Field called thumb.

Upload Custom Thumbnail
You can also use a custom image for your thumbnail. Here’s how to do it:

Make a 280×210px jpeg image for your thumbnail.
You will have to manually upload the file to the /THUMBS folder inside of the Revolt folder on your server
Add the custom field called thumbnail and write down the filename of your thumbnail, as in example. Please note that this custom field is different from the “thumb” custom filed which points to the image in gallery. Thumbnail custom field points to the image file you manually uploaded to /thumbs folder.
