Remove Featured Image from Post, but not the home page.

Hi,

Is it possible to stop displaying the featured image in a post without removing the featured image from the home page? I've played around with content.php and content.post.featured.php, but I'm afraid I don't know much about either.

I use a tablet to post content to my blog and the application I use connects with picasa, youtube, and others. However, when I create a post with an image it does not set it as featured, and so any photos I post will not be displayed on the home page. To work around this I use a plugin that automagically scans the post for images and then sets them as the featured image in the post. This solves the home page display, but in the post I'm left with two images, one from the post and the featured.

see here for an example of the two images


I did get close by setting the max width in the template css to 0%, but then the avatars on the comments were not displaying correctly.

Code: Select all

img {
   height: auto;
   max-width: 0%;
}

any help is much appreciated.

Hi,

Please open file layouts/content.post.featured.php and change fragment:

Code: Select all

<?php if(has_post_thumbnail()) : ?>
<figure class="featured-image">
   <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
</figure>
<?php endif; ?>

to:

Code: Select all

<?php if(is_home() && has_post_thumbnail()) : ?>
<figure class="featured-image">
   <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
</figure>
<?php endif; ?>

perfect. thank you very much.

the home page and post pages are displaying correctly, but now the inset main menu category pages are missing the featured image.

can be seen here

if you want to don't display images only on the post pages then you should use the following code:

Code: Select all

<?php if(!is_single() && has_post_thumbnail()) : ?>
<figure class="featured-image">
   <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
</figure>
<?php endif; ?>

then the featured image won't be displayed only on the single pages. It will be displayed on the home page, category page, archive page, tag page, search page etc.

thank you again for the timely response, and for your patience. that last one was what I needed.

Hello,

Trying to remove the featured image but my code is different and cannot find what you referenced above.

Code: Select all

<?php

/**
 *
 * The template fragment to show post featured image
 *
 **/

// disable direct access to the file   
defined('GAVERN_WP') or die('Access denied');

global $gk_tpl;

$params = get_post_custom();
$params_image = isset($params['gavern-post-params-image']) ? esc_attr( $params['gavern-post-params-image'][0] ) : 'Y';

?>

<?php
   // variable for the social API HTML output
   $social_api_output = gk_social_api(get_the_title(), get_the_ID());
?>

<div class="gk-article-wrap">
<?php if(is_singular()) : ?>
   <?php if($social_api_output != '' ): ?>
      <aside id="gk-social-aside">
         <?php echo $social_api_output; ?>
      </aside>
   <?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
   <div class="gk-article-body">
   
   <?php if((is_single() || is_page()) && $params_image == 'Y') : ?>
      <?php if(has_post_thumbnail()) : ?>

         <?php if(is_sticky()) : ?>
         <sup>
            <?php _e( 'Featured', GKTPLNAME ); ?>
         </sup>
         <?php endif; ?>
         
         <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
         
         <?php if(is_single() || is_page()) : ?>
            <?php echo gk_post_thumbnail_caption(); ?>
         <?php endif; ?>
      </figure>
      <?php
         // if there is a Featured Video
         elseif(get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), "_gavern-featured-video", true) != '') :
      ?>
      <div class="gk-video-wrap">

            <?php endif; ?>
            
            <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
            <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>

               <?php echo gk_post_thumbnail_caption(); ?>
            <?php endif; ?>
         </figure>
         <?php

         </div>
         <?php endif; ?>
      <?php endif; ?>
   <?php endif; ?>


@samuelkingme - do you want to totally remove the featured image or want to hide it on pages other than homepage?
