# Hide Default Preview Image

 * Hello. I used the Directory Builder and for the Default Preview I have no file
   selected. The description says “This image will be used when the listing preview
   image is not present. Leave empty to hide the preview image completely.” When
   I add a listing and don’t set a preview image, I would expect that it would completely
   hide the element as it says “hide the preview image completely”. Instead, Directorist
   is showing the default plugin preview image (it looks like a map pointer). How
   can I completely hide the preview image and not fallback using a default preview
   image unless I have specifically uploaded one for the default preview?

 * Thank you for submitting your query. In this situation, you can go through between
   these slots: Directory Builder > Edit > General > Bottom > Remove > [https://prnt.sc/26l809n](https://prnt.sc/26l809n),
   Settings > Listings > All Listings > Remove > [https://prnt.sc/26l80rc](https://prnt.sc/26l80rc)

 * Hi,
 * I have this same question and your answer does not make sense. I do not want 
   to show any preview images but no matter what I do it still shows the default
   image (/wp-content/plugins/directorist/assets/images/grid.jpg) on the Single 
   Listing page.
 * I am using the free version of Directorist and when I go to Directory Builder–
   General I do not see any options for removing the default image.
 * When I go to Settings – Listings – All listings – Select Listing Preview Image
   I see that I can click the trash icon to delete the image but it does not really
   delete it.
 * I also tried going to Settings – Listings – Single Listing and turned off Show
   Slider Image and turned off Fix Repeated Thumbnail of Single Listing but the 
   default image still shows up.
 * How can I hide the default preview Listing Preview Image?
 * Also, if I decide to keep the image, how can change the size to something small
   like 100×100 pixels?
 * Thanks,
 * Russ

 * FYI – I figured out that the problem is that the hide image options do not work
   with the Astra theme.

 * Hi [@russsd](https://wordpress.org/support/users/russsd/),
 * You can’t delete the default Preview Image, you can only change it. That (/wp-
   content/plugins/directorist/assets/images/grid.jpg) is a fallback image if there’s
   no preview image set on the Directory Builder and/or on the Settings.
    If you
   want to remove the preview image from the Single Page Layout, you need to do 
   it from the Directory Builder. Navigate to Directory Listings > Directory Builder
   > Single Page Layout and delete the Listings Slider: [https://i.imgur.com/bYY6rMd.png](https://i.imgur.com/bYY6rMd.png)
   That toggle on Single Listing Settings is for the Slider but the preview image
   will be still there. So you’ll have to actually delete it from your Single Page
   Layout.

 * Thank you Mahdi. That worked and did exactly what I need.
