# Featured image missing in admin

 * I have renamed the folder with the installation of WordPress. I have therefore
   taken the right steps. And everything seemed to work. But now that I’m in my 
   admin I don’t have the possibility anymore to add a featured image (in the bottom
   right corner).
 * How could this have happened? I only have changed the site name in the admin 
   panel and renamed the folder. I didn’t edit any page. Also it does display the
   featured image when I use the template Twente-Twelve.
 * My theme supports featured images. Before I had renamed the folder, I could add
   a featured image to my post.

 * Switch themes and then switch back again. This popped up for me during my first
   site build in 3.5.1 but I haven’t been able to concretely create reproduction
   steps.

 * Thanks Andrew for your quick reply.
 * After hours of searching, it turned out to be an updated plugin that made the
   option dissapear in the admin panel.
