• Ever since updating it seems my featured image pane doesn’t show up. There isn’t even the option for it in the screen options panel on the edit pages. However when I upload a new image, I DO see the “set as featured image” link in the thick box.

    This is installed as a network site.

    it’s not even listed as an option there either.

    My apologies. I was thinking of another edit post pane. Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    I had this problem too. It was a theme issue. Featured image works if the theme has post-thumbnail support.

    Add this line to your theme’s functions.php file:
    add_theme_support(‘post-thumbnails’);

    In existing posts this did not work completely* but for new posts it did.
    *(could be due to the Get-the-image plugin I have installed)

    I was having this issue and after about half an hour of searching found the resolve to my problem in this post.

    You need to go into the Network Admin > Network Settings, then scroll to the bottom and make sure that Images is checked off as an allowed upload type.

    Once that is done, Featured Images will work.
