Nice catch .. Most of times we are too lazy to check the performance and instead depended on frameworks / libraries..

Excellent. Hope you posted a bug report. Unless the PHP team are blaming it on Windows for some weird reason.

Comment on Quickly Adding Thumbnails to WordPress Archives by Jonathan Sampson

Hello, Steve. If you view the contents of category.php you will see that it attempts to load the following:

get_template_part( 'loop', 'category' );

What this essentially does is looks for a file called loop-category.php to load in, and if that file is not present it falls back on loop.php.

If you wish to style only the results on the category page, and not those on the front page, create a copy of loop.php and name it loop-category.php. Then, make your changes.

Keep in mind that you may need to change some style declarations around to make up for the changes.

Hope this helps!

Hey Jonathan,

What if I don’t want the thumbnail on the home page? How do I eliminate it on the home page while keeping it on the category pages?
