    Tried to set a featured image in a post and nothing happens. The dialog box in the lower right corner changes from “set featured image” to “remove featured image” but the image does not appear in the post.

  • Hey there jamCincinnati,

    Hope you’re well! 🙂

    Use child themes for any customisation you will make. Read more about it here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    Create a new file named ‘single.php’ inside your child theme folder.

    Insert the code you will find here: https://gist.github.com/calvincanas/1ccb6973b38871c1cc65

    What I did is to show featured image ( if any ) before the content. Line 25-29 and 75-79 are the codes responsible for showing the featured image.

    Let me know if it helps! 🙂

    Take care,
    Calvin

    P.S the theme is outdated so I suggest you use a theme that is maintain and backed-up by the theme author. Security is the number one issue on outdated themes / plugins.

    Hello Calvin,

    After playing around with the posts for a couple of days I have got an image to show up. It seems that a category must be set before the image shows up.

    One of the problems I am having is that I am using a tutorial from an earlier version of WPFolio. Everything is the same but different so to speak. And all changes I have been making are being made to a child theme.

    I was not aware that WPFolio is outdated. It was recommended by several artists as a good theme for an online gallery.

    Also, I looked at your code from gist.github.com but as a relative newbie to WordPress and php, I had a hard time figuring out exactly what is going on.

    Other than that things are going well. How’s things with you?

    It gives the ability of ‘post’ to display a featured image.

    Don’t forget to mark this thread as resolved so other members with the same issue can see that this ticket contains an answer that maybe a possible solution for their issue.

    Best Regards,
    Calvin
