  I’ve followed the directions and have three posts with featured images, and they are tagged with “featured”. I still don’t see them showing up on my static homepage.

  Home

  I’ve also made sure the ‘featured images’ checkboxes are all checked on in the Customizer > Content Options.

  Is there something else missing?

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

  Hi there,

  It looks like you have a static page set as your site’s front page. Maxwell only shows featured content on the posts page (main feed), and it doesn’t look like you have one set up – your Blog page is also a static page using a shortcode to display posts.

  To create a posts page (if you don’t want your posts on your front page), go to the Customizer and click on Static Front Page. Under the Posts Page option you’ll see a link to create a new page which you can then set as your posts page.

  I must have missed the part that said it only worked on the Posts Page. Thanks for clarifying!
