Thank you Thomas! I will try that 🙂
Thank you! At least I know that it wasn’t something I was doing wrong, which is comforting 🙂
Thank you again Tomas. Yes, I’ve seen this, but I don’t want a generic header or a random selection of images for these as each post will already be media-heavy (with images and embedded video). Is there any way of removing the header from posts and monthly archives?
.. I also get a broken image link when I look at the monthly archives 🙁
Sorry that’s what I meant to say, that I am creating the content for the site first, so all the static information is going on pages, and all the news and press releases are going to be posts (I already created categories for press releases and rescue news).
What I am struggling with is identifying which template is used when posts are displayed because if I don’t assign a featured image to each post, it displays a broken image link. How can I remove the need for a feature image on the post template?
I temporarily switched themes and do not have this problem with Twenty Twelve, but I don’t know which part of the php code I need to copy into my child theme to remove the feature image from posts while retaining them on my (static) pages. I’m sorry for all my questions!
Thank you Tomas. I’m just creating all the pages at the moment and will then work on the overall design tweaks. Eventually I’d like to add a twitter feed to the homepage as well as a facebook feed, if possible (along with the latest posts, all on the right hand side). So I think that’s now sorted. Thank you for your help.
Sorry, only now realised that I have to select a feature image for each post otherwise it will look for the default image as specified in the parent theme. Will continue looking for a way to display the posts in the content area, thank you.
I’ve now changed the template for the ‘News’ page back to the default template. But I’ve now noticed that all my posts have the same problem, i.e., not showing the feature image? Is this because I am using a child theme rather than the original parent theme? I looked at the source code and every post is calling up an image that doesn’t exist (wp-content/themes/tiny-forge-child-01/images/headers/TinyForge-header.jpg”). How can I change this please so that the posts look for the feature image like all the other pages?
Thank you so much for your quick reply, I really appreciate it and I think your theme is superb for beginners like myself. But I’m sorry, I’m a little confused about what I need to do.
I basically want to have a ‘News’ content page which displays the latest news items (hopefully I can specify how many) in the content area rather than as links in the side bar. Is this possible? I’d also like to select a featured image for the news page (which woudl need to be the same as the feature image on all the news posts), and now understand that using the Front Page template isn’t the way to do it. Unfortunately I don’t know php, so I can’t easily look at the files and determine what I need to change. I apologise in advance if this is a relatively simple thing to do that I should have figured out myself by reading the Codex.
