Hello I am just a beginner, so please help me with the following problem in the Catch Base Pro theme:
The listing of my posts only shows the title or the excerpt without the image.
It looks like that example:
http://bremer-ukulelenorchester.de/Archive/category/aktuellI would prefer a view like this:
http://anne-achner.de/blog/?cat=3
How can I achieve it?
Please help! Thank you!!!!March 17, 2018 at 10:58 am #133610SkandhaParticipant@lutzjkochgmail-com: You can add images to your posts.
Go to => Dashboard => Post => Edit a post => Add Media => Upload the photo and select it.
This way you can add image to your posts.Let me if this solves your issue.

SkandhaMarch 17, 2018 at 11:51 am #133613Lutz KochParticipantThank you Skandha, but that is not the problem.
I made a post with an image for example that one:http://bremer-ukulelenorchester.de/Archive/1252
If I list the excerpt in the blog, the image is missing:
http://bremer-ukulelenorchester.de/
In the blog of my wife, the excerpts of the post show the beginning of the post, complete with the image:
For example like that:
http://anne-achner.de/blog/?cat=3My question is:
What can I do, so that in the listings of the posts, you see the beginnings of the post ( from the first line to the “read more”-tag)?Thanks for all the work you do for me!
LutzMarch 20, 2018 at 1:00 am #133764SkandhaParticipant@lutzjkochgmail-com: Go to => Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Layout Options => Archive Layout => Select Show Excerpt(Thumbnail Featured Image)
Let me know if this solves your issue.

SkandhaMarch 21, 2018 at 4:02 am #133835Lutz KochParticipantHello Skandha,
your idea didn’t solve the problem:
I have made a screenshot to show the difficulties.
The same post is displayed three times.
– in the section for featured content
– in the listing of the posts below
– in the sidebar.
But only in the featured content section the image is shown, not in the normal listing and the sidebar-section.
I want, that the image is always visible and my question is, how to achieve that.
In think, the code has to be modified, but where and what?
Thank you!
LutzMarch 22, 2018 at 3:48 am #133907SkandhaParticipant@lutzjkochgmail-com: Go to => Dashboard => Edit the post Testbeitrag => Remove the image you added to the post and use the Featured Image option on the bottom right side of the page to add an image to the post.
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Layout Options => Archive Content Layout => Make sure
Show Full Content(No featured image) is not selected.Let me know if this solves your issue.

SkandhaMarch 22, 2018 at 7:00 am #133915Lutz KochParticipantHello Skandha,
sorry to say, but thats only a workaround and doesn’t solve the problem:
I think I have to modify the code.
Here is the place where I think a modification has to be applied:<!– NOTE: If you need to make changes to this file, copy it to your current theme’s main
directory so your changes won’t be overwritten when the plugin is upgraded. –><!– Post Wrap Start–>
<div class=”post hentry ivycat-post”><!– This outputs the post TITLE –>
<h2 class=”entry-title”>Testbeitrag</h2><!– ************************************************************************************************************** –>
<!– This outputs the post EXCERPT. To display full content including images and html,
replace the_excerpt(); with the_content(); below. –>
<!–************************************************************************************************************** –>
<div class=”entry-summary”>
<p>Das ist ein Testbeitrag mit Bild. Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type weiterlesen…</p>
</div><!– This outputs the post META information –>
I have marked the important comment.
My question is: Which file is to be altered and where do I find it?Sorry
LutzMarch 23, 2018 at 4:31 am #133964SkandhaParticipant@lutzjkochgmail-com: The solution I provided in the previous reply should work fine. Let me know what is the issue after you applied the last solution.
Also I suggest you not to edit theme files without creating a child theme. This way you will loose all your customizations when you update the theme to its latest version. So always creating a child theme if you have to make changes to core theme files.

SkandhaMarch 25, 2018 at 9:09 am #134095Lutz KochParticipantHello Skandha,
now I solved the problem in the following way:
1) Installing a child-theme
2) Installing the plugin “Display Posts Shortcode” by Bill Erickson
3) Changing all Category-Blogs into static sides, that contain the shortcode of the plugin above
By modifying the shortcodes I can get the view I want.Thank you for your help and I hope some other users will find this way helpful as well.
Best wishes
LutzMarch 26, 2018 at 6:35 am #134155SkandhaParticipant@lutzjkochgmail-com: Glad you could solve the issue. Have a good day.
