Blog posts page not displaying featured image in hero
5 replies · Started by Roger on August 23, 2022
For some reason, my posts page here https://alternateg1stg.wpengine.com/?page_id=27 is not displaying the featured image in the hero section even though I have a featured image associated with the page.
I'm using Page Header and Merge elements for this page and am expecting to see a hero section like this one shown on another page using those elements: https://alternateg1stg.wpengine.com/?page_id=5268
Hi Roger,
The blog page is an index page, even if you've assigned a static page as the posts page.
You should be able to set a fallback image in the block element - page hero, so it will use this background image for the blog page.
Thanks, Ying, but I'm not seeing where I can set a fallback image. Can you help direct me to where I can upload that? I was messing with some of the different elements and am worried that I may have deleted that block.:-(
Hi Roger,
You can set the fallback image in the Backgrounds section of the GB Container Block settings. Then, to enable usage of the fallback image, you can toggle the option in the dynamic settings in the Block toolbar.
Thanks, Fernando, for this clear explanation!
You’re welcome Roger!
