  Hi,
  I’m using the Apostrophe 2 theme. My dynamic homepage shows recent blogs, but it is not showing images for the blog entries or featured stories except the very first one. It only shows the blog title with an empty image box above the text.
  Each blog post has a featured image and an image added to the post itself. I have played with the size and resolution of the images, but can’t work out why the homepage is only showing the image from that first post.

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

  Hi there,

  I don’t see a featured image set for any of those three posts in the editor, so it’s possible that didn’t save correctly when you added it.

  Edit each of those posts in turn. If it shows a featured images in the editor for you, remove that, add a new image, and update the post.

  Let me know if that doesn’t help either.

  Thanks for looking into it for me but still no luck, unfortunately. Those 3 posts are still not showing the image on the homepage.
  Interesting to note that image is appearing on the homepage for both Featured Articles, just not for the regular posts.
  Here’s what I’ve tried:
  A variety of images of different sizes, shapes and resolutions, including uploading new ones but still no luck.
  I also tried using one of the images that IS working for a Featured Article on the hompepage, but no luck for the other post entries.
  Within the editor, I’ve also tried the remove, select and replace options for the featured image, saving and checking each time, but each option hasn’t worked.
  I have also cleared my browser’s cache, including cookies, and tried viewing in muliple browsers (Chrome and Edge).

  Thanks. All posts have a featured image attached them already and I can see the featured image in edit more for each of those posts. I appreciate your help.

  Hi there,

  For the Featured images to be displayed you need to enable that option in the Customizer. Please go to WordPress.com > My Sites > Design > Customize > Content Options and check the Display on blog and archives option under Featured Images.
