How to strip thumb from widget

by

You should remove this part:

<?php if (  (function_exists('has_post_thumbnail')) && (has_post_thumbnail())  ) { ?>
<div class="widget-img">
    <a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/116533/<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail('lists'); ?></a>
</div><!--widget-img-->
<?php } ?>

.
Just to explain… This conditional statement askes… if there is a thumbnail run the code in between me and my closing tag…

<?php if (  (function_exists('has_post_thumbnail')) && (has_post_thumbnail())  ) { ?>

<?php } ?>

This part “echoes” the thumbnail container (div) & its href wrapper & the thumbnail itself.

<div class="widget-img">
    <a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/116533/<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail('lists'); ?></a>
</div><!--widget-img-->
