 * I love the Syntax theme.
 * But it appears to be “buggy”.
 * Some issues:
 * (1) The featured image is not appearing.
    (2) The default menu freezes. — I’ve
   discovered I can unfreeze it by reloading the page. — It took me a bit of time
   to figure out I needed to reload the page to “unfreeze” the menu … So the UX 
   could be better (3) The site Tagline does not show.
 * Here is the website [http://westend-atelier.baremetal.com/audrey/](http://westend-atelier.baremetal.com/audrey/)
 * There is a feature image set in the dashboard for the Home and About pages — 
   But for some reason the featured images are not showing. As well there should
   be a site Tagline showing but it doesn’t.
 * Once again, I love this theme.

 * hello Anna1615,
 * Firstly Make child theme & include single.php in your child theme.
    For showing
   featured image,add this code in single.php <?php the_post_thumbnail();?> (before
   content)
 * Include also header.php in your child theme:
 * For tag line: Go to header.php:
    find this: <h2 class=”site-description”><?php
   bloginfo( ‘description’ ); ?></h2> This is in comment i.e like that: <!–<h2 class
   =”site-description”><?php bloginfo( ‘description’ ); ?></h2>–>
 * remove <!– from starting & this from ending –>
    Save & then refresh your site.
 * thank u

 * [@onedna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/onedna/),
 * The Tagline is working 🙂
 * I’ve added the line — <?php the_post_thumbnail();?> — in single.php in the child
   theme. — But the feature image still does not show.
 * Is there something else I should tweak ?
 * Many thanks, your assistance is greatly appreciated.
