  The featured image box in my back end editor has vanished. It isn’t an option in ‘screen options’ even. This is the case for portfolio projects, posts and pages.

  I am not sure, but this might have occured when I changed to the theme Next Saturday, but surely that shouldn’t affect what I can do at the backend? Just how it displays?

  Thanks for your help,
  Kerry

  In fact your theme can have a significant impact on the back-end as different themes do not support the same features. In this case it does not seem that the Next Saturday theme supports featured images, which is why you don’t have the option to upload them. See under Features in the support doc: http://en.wordpress.com/themes/next-saturday/

  To see all themes that support featured images see here: http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/featured-images/

  Okay that’s useful thank you. I hadn’t found the information about the Next Saturday theme before.

  Thank you for your help.
