In reply to: unwanted thumbnailIf I set a featured image to everyone than I get the thumbnail on top of the picture. I just put another test up with example. I’ve never seen anyones blog that does that?
So you are saying I would need the theme altered to get rid of this issue?
Thank you for helping!

In reply to: unwanted thumbnailOk, that test actually didn’t put the thumbnail on top! That is good news because I don’t want it in the post, but bad news because now I have to manually go back and set a featured image when that posts gets bumped down to one of the excerpts. You see on “aarty party, turmeric-rubbed shrimp” there is no picture. I have to go back and set it to the featured image. There must be an easier way to do this!??

In reply to: unwanted thumbnailStill not resolved but on my blog I have a 2 full posts and then the rest are excerpts. I noticed that the thumbnail picture wasn’t showing up on the excerpt posts so I played around with “featured image” and that worked to get the thumbnail back into the excerpt posts. However, when I post to my blog I still get the thumbnail on top of the enlarged picture I have inserted into my post, even if the “featured image” is not set. I am wondering if it has to do this because of the way the layout has been set up (i.e. 2 full posts and excerpts).
For those that use excerpts, do you have to manually go in and pick a featured image after the post gets bumped down to the bottom. If I left the top 2 posts with the thumbnail and the larger image than I wouldn’t have to do that, but it looks silly that way?
I will leave this test example up for a day or two and then I am going to delete.
Sorry if the way I explained this is confusing! Thanks!Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: unwanted thumbnailI didn’t mention this weird part. The only way I can fix the problem is to cut and paste the entire written post into a “new post” then I insert the image again and it works. So my blog actually looks correct but it’s a major pain and time waster to do it that way. Plus, it doesn’t make any sense! The first time I write the post it’s always a thumbnail and then a larger image. Strange. I emailed the woman who designed my header so maybe she has some idea of what is going on. I will update when it’s resolved and if anyone has any other ideas, I’d love to hear them!
Thanks!!!

In reply to: unwanted thumbnailGisha- I am brand new to wordpress so I don’t even know what the index.php is! I researched and finally got to the editor page and saw the functions.php? Is that the same thing? I didn’t see anything about thumbnails anywhere on the editor page.
Rich, I don’t usually use the featured image and the thumbnail still shows up. There is no picture on the right hand side. I think I tried to use featured image once to see if that would fix it, but it didn’t.
I really appreciate you trying to help.

In reply to: unwanted thumbnailUnder media, when i go to upload a photo, I always use the large size so the thumbnail isn’t clicked. Then I insert into the post. All looks well in the preview and then as soon as I publish it’s different. I don’t see anywhere else where I might have set the thumbnail except for in the media section. Thanks for your response though!
