Hi! In portfolio items, I can hide the featured image. I would love to be able to do that in blog posts, too! Currently, I can't. I've been hiding it with a css hack.

The reason is, that I'm using the featured image as background for the header so I don't want it to be seen under that header again.

As I said: In portfolio items, I can change that, but not in blog items!

Thanks! That's enough for me :)

I second this request. It would be great to show an image in the blog preview area. Currently cannot do that unless using a featured image and when you do it shows up in the blog post under the header which is the same image. If it could either use the header as the preview or hide the featured image in the post that would be great!

This is a "must have" feature for me as well. I cannot launch the new version of my site without this.

Unfortunately, I want the featured images on my home page (blog), but not on single posts. I was able to remove the featured image on single posts by adding this in my header.php file:

<?php if(is_single()) { ?>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
	.post-featured-img {
	display: none;
}
</style>
<?php } ?>

It "works" visually, so that is one good thing, but it add and extra css in the page and goes against what I am trying to achieve, which is to avoid loading a huge image for nothing, especially for those who didn't come through from the main page.

Is there a way, perhaps a new function, which would allow me to set the featured image size?

That way the featured images that load on the main page would load much faster and using display:none on a smaller image wouldn't be that much of a problem.

Thanks for the time.

But will you be adding a switch to the options like there is on portfolio items? Would prefer that! :)

Great! :)

I'd love a solution here too. If I don't set a featured image on a single blog post, then I am left with a large gap where the theme is expecting a header image. I don't want that either. I just want the blog post to start with my text. Or, at the most, a heading where the post title, author, and date are shown. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Sure thing Tahir, here you go.

I'd love not to HAVE to put an image here.

Thanks

Thank you Tahir!
