Updated on Tuesday, April 25, 2017 for Showcase Pro v2.0.0.
In the members-only forum a user asked:
Could you post a tutorial on how to make the featured image of Showcase Pro appear in the body of the post (as usually happens in others Genesis child themes) instead of in the header?
In this article, I share the steps for removing the featured image from appearing as a big hero background and displaying it above the content on single Posts and other post types (other than Pages). Static Pages will continue to appear like before.
Before:
After:
Step 1
Add the following in child theme's functions.php:
How about the reverse? How to set the featured image in the header of individual posts?
The reverse is the default behaviour with this theme as can be seen at http://demo.jtgrauke.com/showcase/achieving-product-market-fit/, for example.
I’m sorry I meant, “How to set the featured image in the header of individual posts with a different theme.”
Thank you, being a subscriber just saved me hours of coding to customize the Showcase Pro theme. This tutorial plus the “How to display Headline and Subheading in Page Header of Showcase Pro” tutorial were exactly what I was looking for.
Glad to read. Thanks for being a member, Sue.
Sridhar, Can you provide some help with simply moving the featured image down a bit, below the header and menu? I like everything about it. However, I want to get rid of the semi-transparent background and make the featured image more pronounced. However, doing this I’d also like to move it from behind the menu/header. I’ll also want to move the page title to below the featured image as well.
Thanks!
So do I!
Excellent. Than you very much!
I have two problems though:
1. My secondary navigation is gone and I would like people to still be able to view that in a single page.
2. I cant seem to give the featured image any margin.
Any thoughts?
This worked perfectly on the most recent version of Showcase Pro. Great tutorial!
You know, this is awesome. Just what I wanted.
I am building a furniture site with a custom post type created with Toolset (Types, Views) sort of as a custom WooCommerce look, but without eCommerce. It looked really weird having a picture of a chair as a hero image at the top with a large title – didn’t really seem quite right.
So I used this tutorial and now the product pages look the same as other internal pages.
Awesome – thank you!
How would one remove the post meta from a CPT in showcase pro? I have tried doing what I’ve done on other themes but it doesn’t work
function tx_remove_post_info() {
if (is_singular('product')) {
remove_action( ‘genesis_entry_header’, ‘genesis_post_info’, 22 );
remove_action( ‘genesis_entry_footer’, ‘genesis_post_meta’ );
}
}
add_action (‘get_header’, ‘tx_remove_post_info’);
This tutorial worked perfectly. How would I go about doing similiar if I don’t want the featured image to appear in the post?
Do not implement Step 2c and Step 3 if you do not want the featured image to be added above the content.
