# Missing function in “content-page.php” – maxwell_post_image_page()

 * I found a missing implementation problem in the “template-parts” for content.
   In `content.php`, `content-single.php`, and `content-slider.php`, you use the
   maxwell_*() functions, which could be easily overwritten in the child theme.
 *     ```
       <?php maxwell_post_image_single(); ?>
       <?php maxwell_post_image_archives(); ?>
       <?php maxwell_slider_image(); ?>
       ```
   
 * Thats awesome, because I need to add the image just above “the_content” in order
   to float it right. It’s easy to implement this. Love it so far. 🙂
 * **Problem:** Unfortunately you use the WordPress stock function the_post_thumbnail()
   in “template-parts\content-page.php”
 * `<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>`
 * Because of this, I can’t move the image from the article header to the content
   area. 🙁
 * **Suggesion:**
 * Please implement a maxwell_*() function to load the thumbnail in “`template-parts/
   content-page.php`” to.
 * `<?php maxwell_post_image_page(); ?>`
 * Cheers,
    Andreas

 * Hi Andreas,
 * Thanks so much for using Maxwell.
 * I would argue that the function is not really missing. Adding our own maxwell_*()
   functions for displaying featured images has the reason that there are either
   theme options or image links to consider.
 * For the featured image on static pages there is no further logic, so adding a
   custom function in the theme would just be an empty wrapper. Yes, I can see why
   this could make sense, but decided against.
 * You can still modificate the theme as you wish, by overriding the content-page.
   php template file. I do not see the point what an empty wrapper function improves
   when you want to change the position of the image.
 * Cheers,
    Thomas

 * Hi Thomas,
 * nice to meet you and thank you for your explanation. In the meantime we launched
   our project, and your theme is really great. 🙂
 * If you don’t implement my request, I’m absolute fine with it.
 * Following just as an additional explanation.
 * I overwrite the `function maxwell_post_image_single() {}` to hide the image from
   its default position completely, because this image is added just before the `
   <header class="entry-header">` in the template by default.
 * On my website, I needed the image inside the `<div class="entry-content clearfix"
   >` just above the_content().
 * So I hide the image with maxwell_post_image_single() and pre-pend it in add_action(‘
   the_content’) above the post content.
 * I implemented this for the post with success.
 * Unfortunately it’s not possible to hide the image using the stock `the_post_thumbnail()`
   function using any available action or filter. So a function `maxwell_page_image()`
   is really needed here to accomplish the above requirements.
 * So pages on our site still use the default image position above the header, but
   I’m fine with this. 😉
 * Have a nice day and greetings from Hamburg,
    Andreas

 * Hi Andreas,
 * You can simply override the content-page.php template file directly and remove
   the call to `the_post_thumbnail()` completely if you don’t need it, or move its
   position. No need to touch the template functions.
 * Cheers,
    Thomas
