    i have a site:
    http://dirtysouthradioonline.com/dsrmedia/

    can any one please help me find why the post thumbnails on the home page above the footer are not showing up?

    i tried to set up through the featured image in the post but as thumbnail but on the page it shows the alt of the image below the image box not the image.

    Most likely you’ll need to update your template with <?php the_post_thumbnail();?> function to ensure that it appears.

    this function is there in the template where i am trying to put thumbnails but not there in functions.php. should it be there as well?

    If you have the ability to add a feature image to your post, then that means that the thumbnails are enabled in your functions.php.

    If they are not showing up in your index.php, then that means that they are not being called properly.

    the featured image is not showing up so there must be function missing either in function.php or in index.php.

    can i use any plugin to fix this and can use the_post_thumbnail in template?

    Hi Christine,

    You have pointed out the exact reason. Actually the function was missing in function.php. i couldn’t create one but used another function catch_that_image() which was already defined in the file.

    Thank you so much for the assistance!
