the graphic in my post is not visible in the reader
-
The graphics of most posts show up in the reader. Mine do not. Can anyone tell me why?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

When a post with the Standard, Aside, Link, Quote, or Status post format contains a video or audio embed or slideshow, that embed is pulled out and used in the Reader. Otherwise, it uses an image from the post.
If the post has the Gallery or Image post format, a video or audio embed in that post would not be used in the Reader – one or more images would be used instead.
When the Reader looks for an image, it goes for the featured image first and then an image inserted into the post — if there are no images that meet the size criteria mentioned above, it will display the image as a thumbnail instead of a large image.

I’ve been using the aside and standard formatting. I have a featured image in each of my posts but it is not picking them up in any post. How big is too big for the reader to pick up?

Thanks so much for your help. I was able to get some of them to show by switching from Aside to Standard, but some of them are still not visible through the reader. I appreciate your help.

OK … they seem to be visible using standard but not Aside. Is this a glitch that can be fixed?

Hi there Karen!
The way our RSS feeds work is that it pulls and displays the first image it finds inside the post content. If the featured image isn’t part of the content, the chances of it showing up in the feed are slim. If this is extremely important to you, you may want to start including the featured image inside the post itself.

I wouldn’t say it’s a glitch, because Asides, in essence, are snippets of text and are treated as such by the feed.
You might be better off using Standard formatting for all posts if you’d like the images to show up in the feed.
Let me know if you have further questions. Cheers!
