Currently, the featured image is what shows in the screenshot that I have listed in my first post.
I don’t like selecting a featured image, because I don’t want it at the top of my post, that’s why all the boxes on my site are black.
I attached a pic of what I am looking for.
The problem comes from your definition of THUMBNAIL – in the screenshot in my first post – those are thumbnail images. So one would assume setting the thumbnail would set that image. But it’s not. It’s a thumbnail of the FEATURED image – doesn’t make sense to a new user of the theme. Know that I know how it works, I want to change it! ๐
