Featured Image Option Not Available for Pages - Only on Posts
4 replies · Started by Sheila on July 6, 2020
I want to add a Featured Image to each of my web PAGES (and POSTS). The option is available for all POSTS but is not available when I edit a PAGE. Most of my website consists of static PAGES. Is the GeneratePress theme turning this functionality off? How can I add a featured image to my web PAGES?
For now, I added a HERO to appear at the top of my PAGES, but I really want to be able to add a different image to each page.
Sample POST page: https://www.katyhomesforsaletx.com/real-estate-buying/home-warranties
Sample PAGE (with Hero Element on top): https://www.katyhomesforsaletx.com/katy-real-estate-home-page/katy-schools
I was using the Classic Editor to disable Gutenberg, and that was what was disabling the Featured Image on PAGES. I guess I'll just have to get used to Gutenberg. Ugh.
Hi there,
That's strange.
You should be able to use featured images for pages in classic editor no problem.
This may be a theme, Generate Press, issue: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/featured-image-block-not-showing-in-classic/
I don't think so. Have you tested with a twenty series WP theme and see if the issue exist there as well?
I just activated the Classic Editor plugin with a fresh install of GP and not experiencing the problem:
