If you are building a child theme with Genesis, you may initially struggle with featured images in blog posts.

By default Genesis has a theme option relating to featured images in Archives. This can be found in dashboard>Genesis>Theme Settings ticking the boxes and setting the options will turn that on for you (ready for any CSS styling you need )

Genesis Theme Options

However, you will also want to display the featured image on the blog post.  Studio Press help is a bit crypitic but a small amount of code in your functions.php

sorts it all out. First define your custom image size, then add an action to display the image if it is a post. In this case I want to display an image 680×400  and align it centrally.

add_image_size( 'post-featured-image', 680, 400, TRUE );

add_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'bw_show_featured_image_single_posts', 9 );
/**
* Display Featured Image in single Posts.
*
*/
function bw_show_featured_image_single_posts() {
    if ( ! is_singular( 'post' ) ) {
        return;
    }

    $image_args = array(
        'size' => 'post-featured-image',
        'attr' => array(
    '    class' => 'aligncenter',
        ),
     );

    genesis_image( $image_args );
}

 

Once again thanks to the great resource at http://sridharkatakam.com/how-to-display-featured-image-in-single-posts-in-genesis/ for the method

About Alan

I'm Alan from Fullworks Digital Ltd, where I develop WordPress Plugins and support and manage WordPress websites.

My day job consists of solving clients' WordPress issues and developing new code and solutions.

I started as a professional programmer in 1979 and had been involved with the IT of business technology in virtually every area that exist.

Badlywired.com is my personal blog and my aide memoire of the many interesting facts that I come across. As I spend a lot of time gathering parts of solutions from the internet and assembling them into my own solutions, and also just learning how to do things, this blog is primarily my 'note book' and a way of giving something back to the online community that has helped me extensively.
