Featured Images #224

Closed bquon closed 6 years ago

bquon commented 6 years ago

Is there a way to have "featured images" inserted at the top of each post that contains one in our archive? Like we've done manually here: https://dlf.wordpress.clir.org/dlfxdhsi-8-9-june-2018/ .

An example of a page where we haven't yet re-inserted the featured image: https://dlf.wordpress.clir.org/imls-grant-supports-21-hbcu-fellowships-to-dlf-forum/

Lots of our past posts are missing their images without this fix.

This is a setting in the theme (Customize -> Blog -> Blog Single Post Page Options -> Display Featured Image).

I've turned this on, but there may be an edit needed in the post-single.php template.

Could you elaborate about the edit to the template? Featured images are still not being displayed. (example: https://dlf.wordpress.clir.org/dlf-events/2016forum/)

Featured Images are really for search engines and social displays (it comes from the older 'post thumbnail'). WordPress handles Posts slightly differently than Pages, but let me look at overriding this behavior in the templates.
