Hi there,
Scratching my head about a couple of finishing touches …. Any advice about how to do this inside of the enfold theme admin would be really appreciated.
1. Latest News Widget – How do you get the small thumbnails to display in the Enfold Latest News Widget as there does not appear to be anything inside the widget to do this … assume I am looking in the wrong place to do this.
2. You Might Also Like – links inside an individual blog post – again How do you get the small thumbnails to display in the two You Might Also Like links.
Thanks in advance for your assistance
Hi davegibb!
Thank you for using Enfold.
1.) Did you apply or add featured images to the posts? The widgets should automatically grab that image.
2.) Same question as #1.

1. Currently 4 blog posts and all have an image inserted into the post. Unless I am doing something wrong when inserting these?
2. same answer as 1.
Given that I am using one of the Enfold theme widgets, and after clicking on the link provided in your previous reply, I was not aware that I would have to declare support for post thumbnails in the functions.php file before the interface for assigning these images will appear as thumbnails on the Enfold Blog widget screens. By using the widget supplied I thought this would be just work?

I’m just a newbie to WordPress so when you stated “Did you apply or add featured images to the posts?” You assumed I would know what you were referring to … Hmm not the case … Anyway I have Figured it out …. Checked that the theme had ‘post thumbnails’ in the functions.php file which it did.
Clearly this feature works, it’s just I don’t know my way around the Enfold theme or WordPress very well. Eventually figured out this issue is due when adding images to a Blog Post – need to click “add media” button and then from Insert Media menu need to select “Featured Image” That is the connection to the thumbnails. I was adding images inside of the post and assuming these would be picked up.
Featured Images was the signpost that I followed to a solution.
Thanks for your help
