 * I set featured image to be shown in both excerpt and full post. Works perfectly.
   The question is: how to set just one post category where featured image will 
   not appear?

 * Hi MontyPL. When you say “shown in… excerpt” I assume you mean on the home page.
   So, for this one category, you don’t want to show the Featured Image on the home
   page? And, on the single post view, for just that category, you don’t want to
   show the Featured Image?

 * Nope 😛
 * I want every post on the home page to has a Featured Image. Like it works now.

 * On the single post view I want to show the Featured Image for every post BUT 
   one category. Right now it works for every post, so I must exclude one category
   somehow.

 * If your posts are assigned to only one category the easiest solution is to set
   those posts in your “exclude” category to post format “Standard”. That will suppress
   the Featured Image on the single post view. If your posts are assigned to multiple
   categories you’ll need to edit post-formats.php for the “audio” and “image” post
   formats which include the post thumbnail. Let me know if you have any additional
   questions.
