Sometimes you may want to hide the featured image on your post, without removing it entirely. This feature enables the image to remain visible in thumbnails and link previews, whilst being hidden on the page when the user opens the post itself.
To hide a featured image:
- Set up your post, add the featured image in the post settings sidebar.
- Go to Appearance settings
- Open the Post Options section
- Toggle the Hide featured image setting on
- Save
Note: If you find that your featured image is not showing. It could be because this setting has been selected. If your featured image is hidden and you want it to show, try the following steps:
- Go to Appearance settings
- Open the Post Options section
- Toggle the Hide featured image setting off
- Save
