comment Include WooCommerce 2's prettyphoto scripts on all site pages
Yes jQuery is loaded on all pages. Is it just a case of using wp_enqueue_script to load the relevant prettyphoto scripts? I'm not sure of the handles woocommerce uses or how many files are needed. I'm guessing a js and a css

comment Query posts only with featured image
No Xampp works well on Mac too! Unfortunately there is no concrete evidence that I did or didn't click the checkbox but that's kinda irrelevant. The problem is because the media import failed - the post thinks it has a featured image as the meta tag is there but there is no actual image. Adding a new featured image and removing it prevents the post from coming up showing the query works, which is what I wanted to know. thanks for the suggestions

comment Query posts only with featured image
@Tom thanks for your comments. I know you say it is easy to forget doing something but I KNOW I did check the box. The thing is, it has very frequently not worked for me; I check the box but none of the images import and I'm left with all the posts having externally linked images in them. My server is a simple Xampp setup running on MacOS which does have remote access. My feeling is that it's a combination of the checkbox failing and the plugin I used to grab all the images failing to "feature" the images properly. I will try your suggestions this evening and report back

Yes I am running the latest version of WordPress - freshly installed on my local dev server as a network (multisite) setup.

I definitely did check that box. However in my experience it has never worked for me. All the images were linked back to the external site. I used the Import External Images(wordpress.org/extend/plugins/import-external-images) plugin to store the images locally and attach.

As a extra thing I thought of - the posts were imported to my local server from a live site using wordpress exporter/importer. The original posts all had featured images which were obviously lost in the import process. Could that mean that although the featured images were removed the meta keys still remained causing the query to mess up?

Thanks for the suggestion. I now get the 6 posts but still get posts without thumbnails.

comment Site not getting correct featured image from my query
Thanks, yes it turns out it's much easier just to query 1 post with a featured image and echo its url where needed. I'm placing my renewed code above. can you confirm it will only return posts with a thumbnail, else I'll end up with a blank image if I post a post without a thumbnail.

comment Incorrect sidebar showing on WooCommerce Store page
That could be an option but I'd rather avoid installing extra plugins when I can acheive the result in my theme. I just want to get to the bottom of why I can't seem to get my second shop sidebar to display. Does WooCommerce always use the index.php template or do the WC pages obey the templates they are given?

comment Import Images from one self-hosted WordPress install to another
Thanks Chip. Ha I didn't realize you were active here. You have helped me in the past on the WP forums. I will try your method when I get a chance this evening.

OK, but this still won't solve the problem that none of the images are "attached" to their respective pages. I.E there is nothing in the "media" section of WordPress backend

that plugin only appear to change the URLs of the image links in the posts/pages. It doesn't say anything about actually downloading the images from the old server to the new.
