    Display Post Types requires the related Post to have a Featured Image in order to display its thumbnail, but the image is duplicated in the related Post. If a regular image (ie. not a ‘featured image’ is inserted in the Post instead, it displays correctly in the Post, but the image does not appear on the Display Post Types page:

    Hi there,

    Thanks for using the display post types on your website.

    It’s a common practice for themes to use the Featured Image for displaying post thumbnails on List or grid of posts. it looks like your theme is also displaying the Featured Image inside single posts, which is causing duplication.

    Alternatively, you can just hide the featured image on single posts using the following CSS,
    Step1: Go to WordPress Dashboard > Appearance > customize
    Step2: Look for “Additional CSS” tab in the left sidebar. Click on it
    Step3: Copy and Paste the following CSS to hide featured image on single posts.

    .single-post .featured-image {
        display: none !important;
    }

    Step4: Click “Update” or “Publish” button on top of the left sidebar

    This will hide the Featured Image inside single posts while still allowing it to be used as a thumbnail in archive listings.

    Inform me for any more help or clarification on this.
