Page Hero won’t show up on Blog Archive no matter what Display Rules I apply

[Alicia]

I’m not sure what I’m missing. I’ve created a page called Blog and that’s where my posts display. I’ve tried adding show on Entire Site, Page = Blog, Page = Posts Archive. The space is there. But, the Featured image just won’t show up.

Is there a trick I’m missing?

Hi there,

WordPress doesn’t actually allow a featured image on the main posts page or any archives.

You’d need to use the custom image option instead.

The display rule would simply be Blog:

It’s still not working after creating custom image header element.

I’ve got these display settings:

Page -> Post
Blog
Post Archive

Nothing is working.

Do you have another header element created that might be causing conflicts in display rules?

Yes!!! That was it. I had a conflict in the page headers that were using featured image. I excluded the blog and now it works!

Thanks SO much!!
