Featured Images aren't carried over

  • So I’m using a Theme with a slider. And that slider uses the featured image.

    If I create a new post on a subsite, the post gets carried over (including the option that it should appear in the Slider) but although I checked the ‘Include Post Thumbnails’ option, the Featured Image won’t get carried over. Manually uploading them to the main/tags site and setting them is kind of defeating the purpose of this plugin.

    Is there a fix for this? It seems to me like the option is broken.

    Thanks!

    The HTML tag to the thumbnail image gets copied to the tags blog not the image itself.

    Also, your slider is probably not using the thumbnail size of images.

    I just checked via jQuery(‘.slideshow img’) for image tags. On the sub site with the original posts, they appear fine.

    They even appear fine for my ‘Latest Posts’ on the main site, they appear fine there and reference the correct images from the subsite.

    But for the slider, there aren’t even any img tags created.

    The theme is called ‘Sight’, you can find it here: https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/sight/

    Have you got any idea why this problem exists?

    Thanks for your help and the great plugin!

    Yes, I answered that in my previous post. SWT does not copy the image to the tags blog.

    Ron,

    Is there a way of pulling the pulling the thumbnail and making it as Featured image? How do you do this?

    Your help is greatly appreciated

    Not with SWT. It would be possible write your own plugin to do that.

    So there’s no way of pulling the post thumbnail as featured image in the main blog but to create a new plugin?

    Thanks!

    Yes, you understood me correctly.
