I am planning on using Pro on my next website and yes, this would be an invaluable feature.

Can you please give me the courtesy of an explanation why you stopped replying to my posts asking for help?

Hi Andrew, can you please reply? Can you help me? Please let me know where I stand.

Hi Andrew, did I lose you? I have tried to get this done with a couple of developers, but you are the only one who really “got” what I am trying to do. I thought we were making progress. You had things on the right track.

Have I gotten blackballed for something? Please respond and let me know either way.

Andrew, I have not heard back from you for a while. Can you still help me?

Any ideas?

I understand. Lets go back to the beginning. What I want the functionality to do:

1. The Homepage & Blog page to work as default – no changes.
2. On Pages & Posts, I would like the header image to come out, and the featured image to appear only in the header area, above the menu. I would like the featured image to be full size, with the site title and description appearing the same way it does on the Homepage & Blog page.

In other words, I would like all the headers to look like the home page header, the only difference is on pages and post, the image is the featured image, not the header image.

Thanks again for all your help.

If I did it properly, you should be able to get a few ingredients! Thanks again for all your efforts so far. I think this is close. Can’t wait to get this sorted so I can get it up and running.

Perhaps we can go back one step with the child css, get the page title off the featured images, and get the site title and description in the right spot across the board on desktop and mobile.

I am really trying to figure it out on my end, but this is a bit above my head. Thanks again for all your effort, it is really appreciated.

Hi Andrew, I just cut in the above code into my child css, and it’s worse. Have a look. The featured image appears twice. Have a look:

Hi Andrew, wow, really making progress. I think its just tiding up text from this point.

On the desktop: The Site Title & Description is overlying properly in the lower left hand corner of the home page and all the other pages, and that is what I want.

But on the desktop PAGES, the page title also appears in grey letters under the The Site Title & Description. I would like the page title to not overlay the feature image. Instead, I would like the page title to appear in its default position on the page, where it is also appearing. See Below:

On a phone, the Site Title & Description appears correctly on the homepage, but its out of position on PAGES. Its in the UPPER left hand corner. Can it be moved down to the lower left hand corner to match the default position on the home page?

Also, on the phone, on PAGES the page title appears in grey text under the Site Title & Description, in the upper left hand corner. Can the page title overlay be removed, and have it just appear in its default position on the page, where it is also appearing?

I cannot thank you enough for all your help.

Andrew, we are making progress. On a laptop / desktop, the featured image on pages and posts appears in the correct position, matching the header image on the home page, and appears to be working fine.

On a mobile phone however, its a different matter. The correct featured image appears, but the featured image is not the same dimensions as header image on the homepage. I have not checked it on an iPad, but that may need to be addressed too. Can you help me address the phone and iPad issues?

Thanks in advance for all of your help.

Hi Andrew, I am branching off this thread so I do not distract the original poster. I moved my questions to this new thread. I hope I don’t lose you.

Hi Andrew, I fixed my child theme error, so I am back on track. Thanks!

The featured images appear to work well on a desktop, but on a phone, the featured images are not full size, and they are in the default location. Any ideas?

and here is the contents of my child functions.php
