Featured Post Image – Can I Prevent it from Showing IN Post?

    Hey, love the theme. It’s clean and crisp and has been pretty easy to work with for a WordPress neophyte such as myself, but I do have one issue that’s driving me nuts. When I make a new post, I have no choice but to select a featured image as the image added to the post body doesn’t show up on my main blog page. That’s not a big deal, though, as I’d rather select a featured image and I dig the rollover saturation effect that comes with it! However, the featured image ALSO shows up (along with the rollover effect) at the top of my post, sitting above the text and other images. I can’t find any way to remove it in the theme options, and I can’t find anything to comment out on the post.php options.

    Any ideas? Thanks a ton, man! Appreciate your work!

    Jim ??

    Sure thing, https://www.jamesfreillyphotography.com Look under “blog”, where my temp posts are.

    This would be the easiest solution.
    Choose a Custom CSS plugin to apply changes. Don’t dothis to the theme css.
    After installing the plugin, enter the following:

    .single .post .thumbnail-link {
display: none;
}

    The thumbnail will still be loaded, but will not be visible nor take up any space.

    If you want ot remove it completely from loading, then you would have to create a Child Theme.

    In this post, there is an explanation of how to do this: https://jamesfreillyphotography.com/this-is-a-blog-post/

    But if you do not want to eliminate the Featured Image, but loose the extra image in the post, this would be the easiest solution.
    Choose a Custom CSS plugin to apply changes. Don’t do anything to the theme itself.
    After installing the plugin, enter the following:

    .single .post .thumbnail-link {
display: none;
}

    The thumbnail will still be loaded, but will not be visible nor take up any space.

    If you want to remove it completely from loading, then you would have to create a Child Theme.

    You could inform the developer of this theme concerning the problem as well, and there would probably be a fix for it in the next theme update.

    You are an absolute STAR NeoTecnomad!! The custom CSS plugin sorted it right out! I actually had tried to apply a similar bit of CSS to the theme but to no avail. That took care of it straight away! MUCH THANKS!! ??
