Trouble with Featured Image for posts on mobile

Could you try to install this version of the plugin, and let me know if it helps?

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for getting back to me. This sort of worked. I now get the featured image on the Post page, which is great, but there are now *two* images for each post on the home page. (Again, my site is https://www.helpmeviz.com and I’m using the Gridster-Lite theme).

Thanks again

Could you try the following:

1. Go to this page: https://helpmeviz.com/wp-admin/options.php
2. Look for this option: wp_mobile_featured_images
3. Make sure it is set to 0
4. Save your changes

Does it help?

Yes! This appears to have fixed it! Awesome.

Thanks again.

Ah, glad I found this. Same problem, and the solution above does the trick. Thanks! (Although now my WP dashboard is telling me to update the plugin, which I assume I should not do?)

I assume I should not do

Correct. I’ll need to fix the plugin and release an update to work around the issue.

Hi Jeremy – Is there any chance of getting this fixed for WordPress.com as well? Or, is there anyway I can update the wp_mobile_featured_images code on my WordPress.com site?

@timeastwood On WordPress.com , you can customize the look of the Mobile Theme by going to Appearance > Mobile in your dashboard. You do not have access to any other options.

Now displaying the featured image on the homepage is a basic setting of jetpack. still not able to see featured images on single posts… there’s not a line of code i could simply past in the page.php or in the content.php file, or whichever it fit, and solve it forever? doesn’t looks like impossible, I’m just scared to break something…

That’s correct. We’ve added this setting to Jetpack 3.2. You can now delete my plugin.

It is possible. Try to add the following to a functionality plugin:

function jeherve_minileven_thumbnails_single() {
    if ( is_home() || is_search() || is_archive() || is_single() ) {
        return true;
    }
}
add_filter( 'minileven_show_featured_images', 'jeherve_minileven_thumbnails_single' );

this works wonderfully!!! thanks

do you think should be possible to set a function to pick not only the featured images, but also other kind of contents not showing on mobile?

[e.g., this post: mobile theme picks the image, not the gallery, https://missionlocal.org/2014/11/good-morning-mission-morning-routines/%5D

This gallery is handled by your theme, not by WordPress itself or a plugin. As a result, whenever you switch to another theme (like Jetpack’s Mobile Theme), you lose all things that were added by your desktop theme.

To solve this issue, I’d suggest moving the gallery functions from your theme into a separate plugin, that will be loaded regardless of the theme you’re using.
If you don’t feel comfortable doing that yourself, you’ll need to get in touch with the theme author about it.

I hope this helps.
