  I am not using code, just the wp visual interface. When I set the featured image, sometimes nothing shows up on the front page. I try deleting the image, reloading, deleting, changing the size, reloading, changing the name, reloading, shouting out loud, reloading…. nothing works for certain images. Can you tell me why?

  Howdy,

  Your theme, Structure, requires featured images that are at least 620 pixels wide.

  Could you make sure you’re setting featured images that are at least 620 pixels wide?

  Well thank you that worked, but I have a main column and two sidebars, so shouldn’t it only need to be 400 pixels wide?

  This particular theme requires 620 pixels wide, regardless of the length of the main content area. It’s more about the image possibly showing up in the featured spot up top.
