Posts Page Featured Image [closed]

I feel like such an idiot!! I was trouble-shooting this last night and I guess I removed the featured image for the news page…so, of course, the image wasn’t showing up! I added the featured image and the following code: <?php if(is_home()) { ?> <?php $page_for_posts = get_option( ‘page_for_posts’ ); echo get_the_post_thumbnail($page_for_posts, ‘large’); ?> <?php … Read more

Some posts returning 404 instead of displaying post

As I mentioned in my comment, the date rewrite rule is picking up your post permalink and trying to load a year archive instead of your single post. Since it appears you don’t use date URLs on your site, you can change the date structure so it no longer clashes. Add this to your theme’s … Read more

how to grab first link in post… and of course call it

Two possibilities: Use the the_content-filter, or just call it in your template. You can just throw the plugin in your folder, or add one (or both) function(s) in your themes functions.php file. The filter triggers only for the post format link, while the template tag can be used more universal – in the loop. As … Read more
