  Hi, I’ve searched the knowledgebase but nothing solved my issue. My featured image is not showing for any new blog posts. The older posts show the image. I’ve deactivated plugins, including Jetpack, and no improvement. I also updated to the latest theme version and no effect. I also switched from my child theme to the parent flexform theme and no effect. It is happening on my blog page and in a blog section on the homepage. Please let me know how I can resolve. Thanks.

  Hi

  On the post page itself? What do you have set for the detail media in the Post Meta Options?

  On the blog page itself (as well as a single instance on the homepage where i am only showing one blog post category “in the news”). All of the old posts show the image, but any new post (the newest Economist post) does not show the image. If I understand your question correctly, I’ve changed the meta options from ‘none’ to ‘image’. Which is what it has been for the site for a long time.

  You have this in your custom css:

  figure.media-wrap img {
  display: none !important;
  }

  That’s stopping the image showing

  so it is the post meta being set to “none”. Even though in my child theme i’ve updated the ‘std’= ‘image’.

  I’m not refering to the image inside the actual blog post. I am referring to the thumbnail image on the BLOG page that shows all of the blog posts.

  No, because the post meta is set to image, but your hiding it with the css I put above. It’s in Theme Options > Custom CSS, you need to remove it

  I had removed it previously and it did not have an effect.

  yes when i manually change the post meta from ‘none’ to ‘image’ it shows up. Even with the css still present. I wondering why the ‘std’ = ‘image’ isn’t being recognized and still maintaining ‘std’ = ‘none’ in the postmeta.php.

  not sure why but the child theme file for meta-boxes.php was not being recognized. I changed it in the core file and it is working properly. Any idea why the child theme file wouldn’t be recognized?

  It’s not possible to override that file directly in the child theme because in the parent theme that file is included directly with this code.

  include(SF_INCLUDES_PATH . '/meta-boxes.php');
