  The “featured image” is not working on just one of my pages. I’m using Karnua theme and have Home, About, Blog, and Connect pages. The Home page has the Header Image which is working just fine. the About, Blog, and Connect pages each have a Featured Image selected, but for some reason it’s not showing up on the Blog page. It shows the Header Image instead. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

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

  Hi there,

  This is normal. The Blog page does not work the same way as a regular page, as the blog page shows dynamic content, namely your posts feed. Other dynamic pages on your site include tag, category and author pages, and search results. All those pages will show the site header.

  Now the blog page is different in one respect, as you used a static page to make it. But the moment you set that page as the posts page it becomes a dynamic page, and follows their rules instead of those of a static page. So the blog page will only show the site’s custom header.
