) everytime I create a new post and set a featured image, the image appears in the top left corner of my post and I can not for the life of me figure out how to remove it.
Features images are designed to appear in a pre-defined part of the site’s layout. If you want to put pictures in your actual blog post; see: Inserting Images into Posts and Pages
To remove a featured image; go to the Edit Post screen and (in the right sidebar) click the “Remove Featured Image” option.
I’m not quite sure on #2. You will probably need to contact the theme author for that one.
Thanks but not really what I was looking for. I know how to enable and disable the feature image. I want the feature image to be on my main page, just not in the post as well.
My apologies, sometimes it’s hard to guess the “tech-savvy-ness” of the people who request help here.
In that case; you will need to edit ‘single.php’ in your theme’s template files. Look for the chunk of code that calls “the_post_thumbnail()” and remove it – including formatting.
If you’re going to be editing themes, I suggest looking into Child Themes
Thank you very much! I tried removing it but with no luck. Can you tell me what to remove?

I appreciate all your help on this, but I removed the code and still appears
If that was single.php; it’s almost impossible for that not to have worked.

At the end of the file, try adding,
<?php echo 'YAAARRRGHHH!!';exit; ?>

Got it!!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!! I did not realize there was 2 single post sections, i was using the wrong one. Thanks again!!!!
You do not know how to remove “related Post below” so my other posts do not appear at the bottom do you?
Hey Perperas, I’m having a similar problem. I’m making changes to single.php but they are not affecting the layout of my blog posts.
What do you mean there are 2 single post sections? I can’t seem to find the second one. Where is the one that worked for you?
Thanks for your help in advance! 😀
I am having a similar issue. It’s showing up as a thumbnail in the upper left hand side. My code looks different. This is what I have:
