  Hi!
  Is it possible to delete the featured image from the actual article page, but still have it feature off the homepage? I ask this because the image is showing up extra-huge at the top of the article page when I mark it as the “featured image,” and I can’t find a way to delete it (or shrink it down, for that matter, which would be OK too). Thank you! (PS, I am using the free “UNTITLED” theme.)

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

  Hi there,

  I see what you’re saying about the Featured Image showing up in the header. After reading through the theme’s support guide, I found that that was designed into the theme that way. You can read that guide here:

  Unfortunately, I can’t figure out a good way to shrink that without breaking it on mobile/tablet views. I can only recommend getting rid of the featured image, but that would not feature the image on the homepage.

  It might be better to switch to a different theme if this is a big problem for you.

  I’m so sorry I couldn’t be of more help. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

  Thanks so much for your reply Grace! If I buy the $30 CSS customization upgrade, would that allow me to change that on the article page? If not, I will find a new theme. Thank you!

  Technically you can. But, the amount of work you would need to change the entire layout of the site wouldn’t be worth it in my opinion. I think you’d be much better off with a new theme because essentially you’d be trying to change the main layout of the theme.

  I hope this helps!
