Featured Image not showing in custom slot

A link to your site and/or a pastebin.com link to your PHP code would help us.

Apologies, I’m developing it on my localhost.

here’s a link to the pastebin of the sidebar-page.php…

I’ve changed everything back to how it was and it worked but when I changed the image size change in the child theme functions.php from the default to 300px wide and 600px high it stopped working again.

Is there a problem with Portrait featured images?

untested – try to change this line to:

( /* $src, $width, $height */ $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $post->ID ), array( HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT ) ) ) &&

Dude, I could kiss you right now.

That worked a charm. You have just saved the very last strands of hair I have left after two days of head butting a wall.

you are welcome ??

if this is all sorted, please tick the topic off as ‘resolved’ – thanks ??

PS:
I always wondered why HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH (or $header_image_width resp.) was used twice in that code; now I know …

just in case somebody else wants to have a portrait-sized header image in (a child theme of) Twenty Eleven:
the universal code – to allow for landscape and portrait images – should be:

(for Twenty Eleven 1.4 which is slightly different to the earlier versions)

// Check if this is a post or page, if it has a thumbnail, and if it's a big one
					if ( is_singular() && has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID ) &&
							( /* $src, $width, $height */ $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $post->ID ), array( $header_image_width, max($header_image_width,$header_image_height) ) ) ) &&
							$image[1] >= $header_image_width ) :
						// Houston, we have a new header image!

Will do, cheers!!
