 * I want to remove the featured image from post page so that only shows up in previews.
   From what I’ve read, there is a line of code I need to remove from the single.
   php file. However I cannot find the single.php file. So, is there any other way,
   or is there a way for me to create a single.php file? I know basically no code
   so I cannot write my own codes. My theme is Venture lite from Nimbus.

 * Please try asking for assistance in the theme’s dedicated forum: [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/venture-lite](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/venture-lite)
 * In the meantime, do not edit the theme itself. First [create a child theme for your changes](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).

 * Install this [Custom CSS](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/) plugin
   and use this code to hide the image from being displayed, **it’s still there 
   and being loaded**, but isn’t visible.
 * `.single .archive-singular-wrap img { display: none; }`
 * That’s the easy solution, the correct way would bee to use a [Child Theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   and override the parent theme single.php file with a customized one, with the
   relevant image code being removed, as suggested by emsi.
 * Hope this helps.

 * Themesumo’s idea worked. Thanks all for helping.
