Featured Image Problems in Structure Theme
-
i clicked on the a new post to get to the post editor screen. After carrying out 1-3, i will need to save changes right? after saving changes, or even if i simply close the box, there is no option to update. only to publish. if i were to get to the post editor screen using an existing post, after i carried out the steps and update the post, there is still nothing featured in the grey box.

Naturally “Update” applies to already published posts; for a new post it’ll be “Publish”. Try again: edit your latest published post, set a featured image etc., then go to Media > Library (dashboard sidebar), find the image you used, hover over it, click Edit, copy the file URL, paste it here so we can check the image.

We don’t have access to your dashboard: as I already wrote, you need to copypaste the file URL, not the URL that shows up in the address bar of the browser.

Hi. I can’t get my featured image to work in the Structure theme either. I understand that for Structure the rules are:
Small: 440 x 240 on the home page for featured posts
Medium: 620 x 380 on the home page for latest feature post
Large: 640 x 392 on single postsWhen I try to scale an image it changes both sizes so 300 becomes 300×300. How do I get it to just change one side so I can get it right?

@emoturtlet: No that’s not correct either. Don’t you see it says “wp-admin” in the URL? Only you, the administrator of your blog, can access URLs of your dashboard screens. The file URL of an image is the URL that shows up in the file URL field when you click Media > Library > Edit.
@fairviewfashion: If you’re referring to Settings > Media, those options have nothing to do with featured images. All the options of the window that pops up when you’re about to insert an image apply to inserting a regular image in a post, not to setting a featured image. A featured image won’t show up unless the original file you upload is in the right pixel dimensions or larger. For Structure see here:

Ok. I hope this is the correct one: http://emoturtlet.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/dsc00755_.jpg

Yup, that’s ok, and the image is fine: large enough, and not corrupt or anything.
So I’ve run out of answers: if that’s the image you’ve tried to use, and if you can see it in the Featured Image module of the post editor when you edit the post “Examinations Out”, then it should be showing on your homepage.
