250×175 is the size we use in the demo.

To hide the border, install My Custom CSS and add this code:

.entry-thumbnail {
border: 0px;
}

Could you share a link to your site, please, so we can see the issue?

OK great, let me know if there’s anything else. Marking this thread as resolved.

No problem, and thanks! If you would consider leaving a review that would be awesome.

Are you using the latest version of the theme? Version 1.2 was released in the last few weeks.

No problem!

You do have to set a featured image. The theme doesn’t choose any images itself, certainly not at random.

Is it possible that you were using a plugin at some point to set featured images automatically?

Are you setting a featured image for each post?

Sorry for the late reply; it looks like you figured this out on your own?

Go to Appearance > Customize and click on the ‘Content/Excerpt’ dropdown option. Then tick ‘Blog index’.

Don’t forget to create a child theme first, otherwise you will lose the change when the theme is next updated.

For the AT Social Icons widget, for Twitter, for example, you would enter this URL: https://twitter.com/Culture_Grab That should work.

By default WordPress strips out all HTML from excerpts and prints all data, which is what you’re seeing. There’s not much you can do about it. Also, shortcodes are not being executed in excerpts.

What can be done is to create a manual excerpt for the posts in question, if it isn`t too much work. So, from the editor (text tab) just copy the amount of HTML you want to show and paste it in the excerpt box. That way, nothing will get stripped.

In this case, if you build the manual excerpt, you have to be careful not to include the image in it or it will get displayed twice: once as a cropped featured image, and once as a full image. Or you can just remove the featured image and use the full one if you include it in the excerpt.

Before the update there wasn’t any validation on the URL field. Now we have validation using the esc_url function (which is part of WP core), and that specific function considers that type of URL as non-valid. We cannot remove the validation as it would be wrong to do so and against the guidelines.

Having said that, I’ve sent you an email via the address on your website…

The embed URL for that video should be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqKmg9Cqr0A

You can ignore the width in pixels value (leave it blank).
