Remove Featured Image- Magnus Theme

  • I am looking to remove the featured image when viewing a post on my blog at freewillracing.com. I am using the Magnus theme and the fixes I have found online have not proven to help just yet! I’ve also tried using the Hide Featured Image plugin to no avail. I want the featured images to show on the main page of the blog but I do not want them to show when viewing a post. I find it confusing as an end user when clicking the post and then seeing the image flash and not being 100% certain whether you need to scroll down or not to read the rest of the article.

    You can accomplish this one of two ways, depending on how comfortable you are editing theme files or CSS.

    1) Quick-and-easy: Add CSS to hide the feature image area on single posts. This code should work:

    .single-post .site-header-image {
    display: none;
}

    2) More labor intensive, but still not hard: Create a child theme (best practice and in case the theme updates), and copy over the header.php file and modify so that the following existing code:

    <?php if (is_home()) : ?>

	<section id="content" class="blog-home-content">

	<?php else : ?>
	<section class="site-header-image">
		<?php // Check if this is a post or page, if it has a thumbnail, and if it's a big one
		if ( is_singular() && has_post_thumbnail(  get_the_ID() ) ) :
			// Houston, we have a new header image!
			//echo get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'magnus-large' );

			$image_id = get_post_thumbnail_id();
			$url = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $image_id, 'magnus-large' ); ?>

			<div class="section-image" style="background-image: url(<?php echo esc_attr( $url[0] ); ?>);">
			</div><!-- .section-image -->

		<?php elseif ( get_header_image() ) : ?>
			<img src="<?php header_image(); ?>" width="<?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH; ?>" height="<?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT; ?>" alt="" />
		<?php endif; // end check for featured image or standard header ?>
	</section><!-- .site-header-image -->

	<section id="content" class="site-content">
<?php endif; // end check for blog homepage ?>

    Gets changed to this:

    <?php if (is_home()) : ?>

	<section id="content" class="blog-home-content">

	<?php else : ?>

	<section id="content" class="site-content">

<?php endif; // end check for blog homepage ?>
