  Hi,
  I’m using a blog post block and asking it to display featured image. Image is visible on draft but it’s not showing the image on the live webpage. Follow the Houseplant option for an example. Help!

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi,

  Try this…At Customize → Content Options → Featured Images, make sure that each of the optional locations where you’d like a featured image to display, including pages, is checked, then save the change.

  @musicdoc1 I’ve done all that. Still no luck.

  Thanks for the update. I don’t know why featured images aren’t displaying on pages for you. I’ve tagged the topic for staff attention, so staff will respond here. One other thing you might try is the check the box labeled “Automatically use first image in post” at Customize → Content Options → Featured Images. Since you have a couple of images displayed in the content of the Houseplants page, that might work.

  I should have mentioned that featured images are displaying on pages on a test site of mine with Button 2 applied.

  Hi there, I had a quick look at your site as a regular visitor but I’m definitely able to see the two featured images of your blog posts here:

  Were you able to test the additional suggestions that musicdoc1 mentioned?

  I figured it out last night. I kept changing toggles. Couldn’t tell you which, I just remember it was on the left

  Congratulations! I’d seen those images yesterday, but I’d misunderstood from the beginning, thinking that you’d wanted a featured image to display at the top of that page, and likewise on other pages.
