 * Hi Mark, Team Rosters is causing my featured image to disappear in admin. I’ve
   read posts regarding the problem/solution but they are a couple of years old 
   and file names have changed.
 * wp v 4.2.3
    tr v 4.0.1 theme is resportsive

 * Yes, this has been a problem in some themes, including Resportsive. Have to tried
   the Screen Options tab at the top left of the Edit Player screen? It should have
   a checkbox for player photo. (??) If that doesn’t fix it, please change your 
   theme to Twenty Eleven (or any other Twenty-something theme) and see what happens.
   If the Player Photo is there, then I think the problem is Resportsive. I’d like
   to fix how to fix it, but I don’t have Resportsive installed, nor can I install
   every theme.
 * Let me now how those ideas work out for you.

 * Hi Duval Sports,
    Thanks for writing. Having seen no response from I Dezine, 
   at this point I believe there is a collision between Team Rosters and other themes
   and/or plugins. I believe I am doing everything “by the book” WRT the WordPress
   API, but maybe not. I’m willing to add whatever I can to harden my plugins and
   avoid collisions. So please:
 * 1. Switch to the WordPress Twenty Eleven theme. Don’t worry about your site’s
   appearance, just see if the Featured Image is fixed. If so, it’s your theme. 
   If not,
 * 2. Deactivate ALL other plugins. Is the Featured Image fixed? If so, Activate
   them one at a time, checking the Featured Image until you find the culprit.
 * Let me know. If you find something, we can look at how to prevent it.

 * Sorry, just haven’t had time to check yet with the other issues and since we 
   aren’t using the roster just yet I have to concentrate my time on fixing the 
   schedule first.
 * Team Rosters has always worked with resportsive, i’ve used it for years. I have
   not installed any other new plugins. I just updated the rosters and Schedules&
   Scoreboards.
 * Unfortunately, it also removes screen options and help from the page. I will 
   test again and get back.

 * Hi I Dezine-
    Thanks for the response and helping to get this figured out. Glad
   to hear it’s always worked before, that’s a start. A couple of comments/suggestions:
 * 1. It works on my box. [Check out the screenshot](http://dev.shoalsummitsolutions.com/tr-edit-player-admin-screen/).
 * 2. When you write
 * > it also removes screen options and help from the page
 * , IT is ME. The plugin doesn’t do anything without ME telling IT to, and I did
   NOT (intentionally) remove screen options or anything else. As you can see from
   the screenshot in #1, they are still there, even has a checkbox for “Player Photo”
   in place of “Featured Image”.
 * 3. That said, “intentionally” is a key word. There may still be a problem due
   to other changes – WP core, PhP, plugins, themes, etc. So please change your 
   theme and deactivate your plugins as suggested earlier in this thread.
 * Then let me know.

 * I also have this featured image problem using the gameday theme, is there anyway
   i can use both the team and the plugin?

 * Hi radurosca,
    I would hope so. If I’m doing something janky, I’d like to fix
   it. I know GameDay is a popular theme, but it’s a premium theme so I don’t have
   a copy. This makes it very hard to debug this without some help. If you’d like
   to help, I suggest you proceed as follows:
 * 1. Deactivate all other plugins. Still a problem? Proceed to step two. If the
   problem disappears, reactivate the plugins one at a time until you find the culprit.
 * 2. Change the theme to 2011 or 2012. Still a problem? I’m guessing not, because
   I don’t see the problem in either of those themes.
 * Also, have you contacted MVP Themes and asked them about it. I don’t expect them
   to help you debug, but they might have an idea based on what they understand 
   about their plugin.
 * Let me know how that goes and we will proceed from there.
 * Thanks.

 * I contacted MVP themes. They have no idea (I wouldn’t expect they would, but 
   it was worth asking). Nor will they give me a copy of GameDay so I can debug 
   the issue for them.
 * I’ll keep it on the back burner, but I can’t debug without tools.

 * Hi Mark, happy New Year. Sad to say I also the Featured Image problem with the
   Genesis framework. I tried it on several StudioPress themes and it does not work.
   I deactivated every plugin and it still did not work. I am not going to give 
   up Genesis so unless you can help me I am going to have to explore other options
   🙁 Thanks in advance, Ray PS Too bad because I like what’ve you’ve done 🙂

 * Hey Ray-Lewis,
    Happy New Year.
 * Did you try this on one of the standard WP themes Twenty Eleven, Twenty Twelve….
   Twenty Fifteen?? It should work. Please let me know whether or not it works.
 * I have been looking at this and I have some ideas that I’m going to try out. 
   If something looks promising, I may have a patch to try out. If it looks promising
   and if you send me (mark@drmarkodonnell.com) your email, I can send you a patch
   to try out. Again, I’ll guessing because it seems to work on standard WP themes,
   and it’s hard to debug when I don’t have all theme in question.

 * Hi Mark,
 * I’m having the same issue as Ray-Lewis. I’m using the Avada theme and when I 
   updated to the latest Team Roster plugin I can longer see the featured image 
   when trying to add a post. If I deactivate the plugin the featured image shows
   up again.
 * Thanks for you help.

 * Hi Wally World,
    Thanks for the info. It appears that this problem only occurs
   with certain “premium themes”, not with the WP standards – Twenty Fifteen, etc.
   So while I’d love to sort this one out for you guys, but since it seems to work
   with the WP themes so ….
 * You could help by changing your theme to Twenty Fifteen or Sixteen and see if
   the problem persists. If so, it’s something else in the site configuration, and
   I might be able to work it a bit. If not, you might want to ask your theme provider(
   Theme Forest?) about it.
 * Regards,
    -Mark

 * All-
    I have posted a new (proposed) fix to this issue in [the plugin’s development trunk](https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/team-rosters/trunk).
   You only need the `mstw-team-rosters.php` file. If you have time to try it out,
   please let me know how it works for you.
 * Thanks.

 * Mark,
 * I was previously having this issue with a premium theme and my featured image
   not displaying. After downloading your updated .php file, the problem was fixed.
   Thought I’d let you know the (hopefully) good news.
 * Thanks for your dedication to these plug-ins!
