 * I have added the Recent Posts widget in my sidebar. The posts get called in but
   without there thumbnails. I added the featured image in the post and also tried
   adding that image before the post text by adding media.
 * How to call the post thumbnails in the widget? Please help!

 * The default Recent Posts widget that comes with WordPress is not going to display
   featured images or thumbnails. The best thing would be to [look for a recent posts widget](https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=recent+posts+widget).

   looks like it might do the trick.
