Disable Blog Post Cover Photo

[Chad]

I have turned off Cover photo in the setting of buddyboss for Posts, but it is still showing it. I want to have a featured image that is not so wide so I can use my posts grid with a more appropriate square image. It also makes reading the text on the post really hard if I have any cover photos with text in them. How can I turn off cover photos only for blog posts? Why is the setting not working?

Hi @toppointmarketing, Disable cover option is available for Profile Cover image and Group Cover image, not for post thumbnails.

You will need to do add some custom css to hide them from single post page and archive page

.entry-post-thumbnail {
    display: none !important;
}
.single-post .page-cover {
    display: none;
}

Sorry, I dont mean the post thumbnail. I am talking about the cover photo when on the post page itself.

Any word on this?

Hi @toppointmarketing, Post featured image comes up as a Cover photo for post. You will have to customize the single.php to remove the cover area and include a default featured image option.

I have this same question and requirement. There is an option under Cover Photos in the Boss Theme settings (screenshot attached) for Blog Cover Photo that says “Display the blog post’s featured image as a cover photo.” Turning this off doesn’t seem to work for removing the featured image from the cover photo area for posts, so what does this setting actually do?

Hi @judeamedia
this option is added to display featured images on single blog post
With cover on

Thank you for your response, Varun!

That is what I would expect the feature to do, but it doesn’t seem to be working for me. It seems like it wasn’t working for the original poster either.
