Tried the following:
Blog page settings > Page Featured Image > enabled
Uploaded a Featured Image
–> Does not display
Added SiteOrigin Hero (with image) to my Page builder
–> Does not display
Other suggestions?
Is it just not possible to add a hero image / featured image to the blog page? It’s not my idea; it’s what the client wants.
Hi Anna,
Unfortunately, not possible to edit the posts page at this time but it is possible to do this by using SiteOrigin Page Builder. Please navigate to WP AdminSettingsReading and set the Posts Page setting to -Select-. Open your posts page (which is now just a regular page) and add a new row below the SiteOrigin Hero widget. Add a Posts Loop widget to the newly added row and open it. Set the template to the desired posts template – you may need to try a few of them until you decide on one you like. Save.
How does that look?
Well, shoot. That is, of course, 'the workaround' and as a WP developer, I really shoulda thought of that myself.
Thanks, Alex – exactly what I wished to accomplish. I hope, at the very least, this thread helps others.
:-) Anna
