Featured Image not showing up @ Home
-
Hi guys, just made a move here at wordpress from blogger. I’m having a problem with the theme ‘Hemingway Rewritten’. It does not show up the Featured Image set on a post, rather it changes the Header Image on THAT post.
I’m currently a free user (just a heads-up).
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there!
Hemingway Rewritten is designed to use Featured Image Headers, which is how you’ve just described it, the Featured Image becomes the header image for the post when it’s opened.
From the Hemingway Rewritten info page:
Featured Header Images:
If a featured image is assigned to a page or post, the image will appear in the header – otherwise, if you set a custom header it will be displayed. Note that a decorative background image works best in this area since it changes slightly based on the size of the screen, rather than an image designed to be displayed at a fixed size.Hemingway Rewritten is not set up to show images on the home page, so you won’t see them there – each theme handles featured images a bit differently :)

I’m having a slightly different issue with this. I am trying to have a different Featured Image (header) on each of my pages, and have it all set up except for the Blog page. When I change the image on the Blog page it also changes on the Home page (except once, it showed a different photo on blog page I’d uploaded days before).

In tests with the Hemingway Rewritten theme activated, I found that a featured image will not display on the page set as the blog page. What will display in the header area on the blog page, is either the site header image, if one is set, or a dark gray background (regardless of whether the default or a custom background is set) if no header image is set. Therefore, on your site, the blog page is displaying the site header image, which is set at Customize > Header Image.
When I change the image on the Blog page it also changes on the Home page…
The reason why your “Home” page also displays the site header image is because a site header image is set, and no featured image is set on the page. If there was a featured image set on the page, then it would display instead of the header image. If there was neither a site header image set, nor a featured image set on the page, then a gray background would display in the header area of the front page, and on any other page without a featured image set.
(except once, it showed a different photo on blog page I’d uploaded days before)
This suggests that you may have temporarily substituted a different a header image. Previously uploaded images are stored at Customize > Header Image, unless you delete them.

I thought so. Was hoping there’s a way to make the featured image visible in the homepage though.Anyways, thanks for the enlightening me. Cheers~
