  • Figured it out. I was using a child theme and there was a conflicting “add_theme_support” in the parent theme. Once I added my custom post type to the add_theme_support function in the parent theme, it showed up in the child theme. Thanks for your help and speedy replies. I’ll send you a paypal thank you, hopefully others who get your help will do the same. Thanks.

    Wow, thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately, it doesn’t show up there. I see ‘Attributes’ but no ‘Featured Image’.

    I just doubled checked all the settings.

    1. My custom post type is called simply ‘course’
    2. I have added the following line to functions.php add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’, array( ‘course’ ) );
    3. I have enabled Thumbnails in the Fields settings of my post type course

    I think that is all that needed to be done to make it show up, but it doesn’t show on the edit page and isn’t listed in the screen options of the edit page.

    Trying to get the post-thumbnails metabox to show up on a custom post type I created through the plugin. I have added the following line to my functions.php

    add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails', array( 'course' ) );

    Where course represents my custom post type. Them then enabled post-thumbnails as described above. I only see the page attributes metabox, not the featured image metabox on the post editing page.

    If I add a built in post type to the add theme support line above, I get the thumbnail metabox on the edit screen. It just fails on the custom post types created from the plugin. Am I missing something or is this a bug?
