[Support request] Featured Image Option Missing

[Wara]

@Tony I disabled my image optimiser plugin and featured image works fine now. Hope that helps.

Update to this issue – was still happening on multiple client sites.

I’m pretty sure the offending plugin is SEOPress – have seen some reports that Yoast may be causing similar problems. Boils down to the time taken to do the SEO/Content analysis when the post loads in editor, and that causing the featured image panel load to just time-out.

I have now tried this approach (disabling SEOPress plugin, at least when creating/editing posts) and every time the Featured Image panel is present and correct.

Have posted on the plugin forum to see if they have any suggestions to remedy this.
