@mercime thanks for replying…..just read back my poorly written post. yes it has been a while please forgive.

Not the blog’s loop, I meant to say the blogs-loop.php ( the site tracking directory ) for multisite.

I’m wanting to replace the bp_blog_avatar with a post thumbnail belonging to the bp_blog_latest_post.

@mercime thanks again. I decided not to go the sitewide forums. I’ve not gone there in a while either.

Anyway here’s what I got so far, anyone welcome to help edit it. I figure If i’m able to get the image, we can also get the latest_post’s real author since blog-avatar doesn’t make much since on sites with multiple authors.

` <?php
global $blogs_template;
global $post;
switch_to_blog($blogs_template->blog->blog_id); ?>

<?php $my_query = new WP_Query('showposts=1&order=DSC');
while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
$do_not_duplicate = $post->ID; ?>

<a href="” rel=”bookmark”>
ID, ‘image’, array(‘class’ => ‘alignleft’)); */ ?>

`

I just fashioned this up “quickly” (took me all morning) to show images. I have to figure out how to find the right image as in fallback from a woo_image to a featured image to an inserted content image. So i’ve got my work cut out.

I don’t know how “expensive” this all is as well, so I figure I get something to work first then we can see if it’s worth it or not or if there is a better way to do it.
