February 13, 2015 at 5:20 am in reply to: Disable Featured Image from appearing in Blog Post #395497
I’ve run into a similar problem. I am helping a friend set up his site and neither of us can figure this out. When we set the single blog post layout to any of the three options and check the box so the featured image won’t show on the post, it puts this little icon at the top of the post with either 1) a link to the image in my uploads folder, or 2) a link to the author page for the single author. Now how do we get rid of that?
Ideally, what he wants to do is have the featured image show in the post and have it be clickable through to a custom URL. But since you can’t edit the destination on click of the featured image in a post, we opted to get rid of it from the post and insert the image separately as a media element with a custom URL for the click through. That works fine for now, but after reading some other messages here on the forum, I’m guessing we’ll run into duplicate image issues on the archive page in the future.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: We seem to have found a roundabout solution. If you set the Blog Layout for Single Post Style to “Single post with big preview image” and also put custom CSS in General Styling to remove the image overlay effect from the site, that appears to do the trick. It doesn’t work when you use either of the other two Single Post Style options, it has to be the one with big preview image. The CSS we used is below:
.image-overlay { display: none !important; }
