Hi,

I have recently created a wordpress blog of Gallery images
http://gallery.pcabout.com/
Code (markup):
I want to hide the featured images occurring in the blog post. Is there any way to do it apart from deleting the featured image?

Edit the theme files to remove the code that calls on the image to display.

Could be single.php, archive.php, index.php or even a few more, not knowing your theme.

The coding is completely different from other templates. I tried my best to solve this, but couldn't do so. The theme which I am using is "Minimatica". It is located here.
http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/minimatica
Code (markup):
Please help me regarding this.

Sometimes coders will bury functions that would normally be in single.php, index.php and so on, in other folders like an "Includes", "Library", and so on.
Especially. if it's a theme with different template settings.
Unfortunately, you are going to just have to look for the correct files.

I guess you could, if you have access to all of the files that way. I prefer to do it via FTP because the admin panel doesn't always show every folder and file.

I tried finding the code in single.php, but there ain't any code in single.php

<?php
/**
* Template for Single Posts
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Minimatica
* @since Minimatica 1.0
*/

get_header(); ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'loop', 'single' ); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

But I found few codes in widgets.php. Please have a look at the code and guide me how to hide the featured image in post

Sorry, I'm not going to be able to do it that way. I would need access to your entire installation to first see how the thing is set up and coded, your settings, and your website to find and edit the issue.

Removing a function of a theme is not something that I can just help you with blindly by looking at one file. There's a million theme's out there made by a million different people. No one just knows them all. Sometimes you just have to look around.

Although I seriously doubt that the featured image code is going to be in your widgets file. It has nothing to do with widgets.

Yes, I do understand that featured image function will not be present in widgets file. But I tried to search in single.php but I couldn't find there.

The theme is available here
http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/minimatica
Code (markup):
It is different from other themes. Can you please have a look at the codes of the theme? It would be very much appreciated.

Sorry man, I don't mind helping where I can, but this is a little more time consuming than just general knowledge. I just don't have the time to comb through theme files looking for snippets of code.

But I can tell you this, I am positive that the featured image code that is displaying above your posts is in Single.php or single-post.php or what ever file controls the display of your individual posts. It looks like it might be called "colorbox" in the theme files.

Also, if you have any image plug ins running, make sure to check the settings to insure that they aren't working against you.

I'm pretty sure I am pointing you in the right direction, but unfortunately I can't do it for you.

Hello friend, I had a look at your given template,
So I hope that you can remove featured image from your loop.php

The code for it is look like

<?php if( has_post_thumbnail() ) : ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>" rel="bookmark">
<?php the_post_thumbnail( 'homepage-thumb' ); ?>
</a>
<?php endif; ?>
Best Wishes....
