Featured image control appears twice on UI

    This problem exists within the add/edit screen UI for a content type – not on the site page itself.

    I turned on REST in order to provide the blocks editor in a content type I’d added — but doing so causes the “Featured Image” to appear twice in the UI (the control to add/change in the right column of the ui, not the image itself). Adding the featured image to one of these occurrences causes the image to appear (on a detail page); adding something to the other has no effect (that is, one control works, one doesn’t). Turning off REST causes the multiple occurrences to go away. I did add support for “Featured Image” within the content type, and unchecking that causes both occurrences to disappear.

    How do I get rid of the duplicate (non-working) featured image control in the UI?

    Featured Image metabox is controlled by WordPress. Pods does nothing more than advise that the custom post type you’ve created in Pods supports Featured Image. Likewise with REST API. Pods does not ‘display’ the Featured Image metabox, nor does REST API. The Block Editor does.

    I can also validate this on a clean install with Pods, and a custom post type enabled for REST API and the Block Editor, I’m seeing one Featured Image metabox.

    If you’re seeing the Featured Image block twice, you’ve got a conflict with something else on your site and need to start by checking for plugin or theme conflicts.
