    I’m unsure why this happens, but I usually post by putting my desired image within the body of the post, with a link to the full-size image when you click that image. But I also use the same image as a featured image so I get a full-sized banner style image across the top. But that featured image is pulled into the Posts page so that you see both images, which are identical, on my post page. Is there any way to suppress the Featured Image on the Posts page?

    Thanks,
    Damon

    Hi, so are you putting the image into the content of the post, and also setting it as a featured image? If so, then you will have duplicates showing. I would put it either as a featured image, or as an image inserted into the post, but not both. It sounds like removing the featured image would be your best avenue.

    We can hide the featured images on your main page, but it in essence does the same as just not setting a featured image. This will hide the featured image on your main page.

    .blog .entry-thumbnail {
        display: none;
    }

    Well, that made the main page look like I wanted, but now it hides the featured image on the post as well… oh well, I guess I’ll just roll with it. Thanks for your help.

    Des, in the code I gave you, the .blog css class at the beginning limits the change to only the blog page, your main page.It looks like you have removed the featured images from your posts as I’m not seeing that post-thumbnail div in your source code anymore.

    Perhaps I misunderstood what you were wanting?

    No, I didn’t remove them. That was the result of adding that bit of CSS to my “Additional CSS section”

    What I would want in a perfect world is when I’m in a post, to see both the embedded image linked to a separate full-sized image, along with the featured image at the top. But on the main page/blog page, to only see one of the large thumbnails. That might not be possible…

    Thanks for the clarification. Do you have the Jetpack plugin installed on your site? If not, install and connect it to your WordPress.com account. Then go to Customize > Content Options and you can select to have the featured image shown on single post pages.
