 * Is there a way to have the featured image on regular posts automatically inserted
   without having to change them to the “image” format?

 * With a [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) (download sample
   child theme [here](https://github.com/AlxMedia/hueman-child/archive/master.zip)),
   locate this in single.php:
 *     ```
       <?php get_template_part('inc/post-formats'); ?>
       ```

 * Great, thanks!
 * I combined it with [a script found in the WordPress Codex](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_post_thumbnail#Post_Thumbnail_Linking_to_Large_Image_Size)
   to get the thumbnail to link to the large size image – very useful, as they are
   often aggressively cropped.
