  I’m using Sketch theme and I love the minimalistic design. So far I only have one problem – my posts need featured image to work on front page, but I do not wish for featured image to be displayed in blog (http://leakingdarkroom.com/blog/) – it only doubles the image since I’m using displayed image as featured image (well, cropped out).

  I’m pretty poor with CSS so any help is greatly appreciated.

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

  It was added automatically by the Sketch theme.

  Hi there, to suppress the featured image on the page you have set as your “posts page” at Settings > Reading, add the following CSS. What I have done is to use the unique page-type body class (found in the opening HTML body tag of the blog page) to specifically target the featured images on that page.

  .blog .entry-thumbnail {
      display: none;
  }

  Go to Appearance > Customize > CSS, delete all the informational text in that window, and paste in the above custom CSS.
