## Description

Display one or all images from a post’s content. Options include image width, height,
class and permalink.

## Installation

 1. Unzip the simple-image-grabber.zip file.
 2. Upload the `simple-image-grabber` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 4. Place `<?php images(); ?>` within the loop to grab your post’s images.

## FAQ

1) How can I customize the Simple Image Grabber function?

The images() function accepts five variables.

The basic use of the function looks like: `<?php images( '1' ); ?>` or `<?php images();?
>`

This will display the first image from your post, with its default width and height,
no class and a permalink to the post.

This is how the function looks with passing all variables directly or through an
array:

    ```
    <?php images( $number, $width, $height, $class, $permalink, $echo ); ?>

    <?php
    $defaults = array(
        'number' => 1,
        'width' => null,
        'height' => null,
        'class' => 'alignleft',
        'permalink' => true,
        'echo' => true
    );

    images( $defaults );
    ?>
    ```

$number = the image you want to pull from your post, ie. the first image from the
post (‘1’) or the second image from the post (‘2’) and so on. NOTE: If you use ‘
all’, it will display all images from the post.

$width = the width of the displayed image

$height = the height of the displayed image

$class = the class you would like to assign to the displayed image

$permalink = whether you would like the image to link to the post or not

$echo = echo or return the value

The following function will echo the second image from a post (if there is one) 
with a width of 150px and a height of 200px, the class “alignleft” and no link to
the post.

    ```
    <?php images( '2', '150', '200', 'alignleft', false ); ?>
    ```

The following will return all images from a post with their original width and height,
a class name of alignright and a link to the post.

    ```
    <?php
    $args = array(
        'number' => 'all',
        'class' => 'alignright',
        'echo' => 0
    );

    $all_images = images( $args );
    ?>
    ```
