Featured image is not displayed on single post page

Hi there,

Looks like you've figured out? I can see the featured image no problem:

Hi Leo,

The issue is not corrected yet. The screen grab you show doesn't have the featured image. If you go to the home page, the featured images are displaying in the list of post correctly. But when you click the link to the single post the featured images are not displaying on the single page. This is the issue.

Thanks,
Dave

Are you wanting to use featured image and page header at the same time?

Yes, I want to page header, the post title, the featured image, and then the post text. I have the "display feature images" checked in the customizer, blog, layout for post area. If you go to the home page the header featured images displays fine, but if you click the post to load a single post the featured image is not displayed but I would like it there also.

Thanks,
Dave

Right now the Page Header replaces the featured image on single posts and pages. We're working on separating the two so they can be displayed at the same time.

For now, you can do something like this: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/featured-image-does-not-appears-in-indivual-post/page/2/#post-525114

Let me know if this helps or not :)

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your speedy response on a Sunday evening. I'm impressed. I tried using the code (below) in the "additional CSS area of the customizer, but it was showing 6 errors and I wasn't able to save it. Then I tried using a child theme and added the code to the style.css file. It did nothing.

If you working on the better solution in the works, I guess I can wait. But if you have another suggestion using css please let me know.

Thanks,
Dave

add_action( 'generate_after_content', 'tu_add_featured_image' );
function tu_add_featured_image() {
if ( has_post_thumbnail() && is_singular() ) {
the_post_thumbnail();
}
}

That's PHP code so try one of these methods: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

Code snippets is the easiest if you aren't using a child theme.

Hi Leo,

Yes, the code is working. Thank you. I would like one adjustment if possible. Could the featured image be inserted after the title and before the text of the post ( on the single post page only)? So the elements on the single post page would be the header, the post title, the date, the featured image, and then the post text.

If there is an easy fix I would be very happy. I'm happy now just to have the featured image on the post page.

Thanks again,
Dave

Absolutely! Instead of:

add_action( 'generate_after_content', 'tu_add_featured_image' );

Do this:

add_action( 'generate_after_entry_header', 'tu_add_featured_image' );

Hi Tom,

Thank you, Thank you. Your code change is exactly what I wanted. Great theme and great support! I'm glad I purchased the upgrade to Premium.

Dave

Thanks! Glad I could help :)
