    Please help! Note: my tone in this is not snobby, I’m just trying to make my point clear as to what I am looking for for because I am not very web literate. Thank you in advance 🙂

    I love the full width header image area of this theme. I chose it because I want a big beautiful responsive slideshow on the home page and big beautiful responsive image featured on each Page, post, and category/archive page, specific to the content of that page,post,archive. I currently have my header image set to “Excluding homepage, Page/Post Featured Image” which indicates that my pages and posts should feature their own feature image, and will default to the uploaded headers ONLY when a featured image is not chosen or is not enable, right?

    The point to uploading a featured header/several featured header images is to replace the header image on a post or page when there is no featured image set and enabled on that page right?

    Well, it seems that I can’t EVEN SET A featured image for any of my PAGES or CATEGORIES. (posts work beautifully, so no worry there). I don’t want to have a bunch of pages or category archives on my site that all have the SAME image over and over again, nor do i want Pages and archive category pages that randomly generate a header image that has nothing to do with the topic of that page (i.e. I could have a page called “Meet Me” and a picture of a Bear in Alaska could show up as the header, when I really want to feature a photo of me. OR I could have a category archive in my menu titled Islands and have all my posts about island show up, but then a photo of a mountain that I’ve uploaded to my featured images might show up as the header. That would make no sense. And it also wouldn’t make sense to have the same boring header show up over and over again for everything but my posts OR for me to disable the header because then the site would be super boring). I want to be able to set a featured image for PAGES and set a featured image for the CATEGORIES so i KNOW which image will show up as the header.

    On the page editor, there is no featured image upload box like there is in the post editor, however, in the Full Frame Options at the bottom under the single page/post image layout, there is an option for Default/Featured Image/Full Size/ Disable Image, and if that option is even present, that means there should be a way to upload a featured image to the page right??

    (Also, I just submitted a question asking why the Archive Content Layout option is not available when I create a new page. If this feature worked then all I would need is the ability to choose a featured image for pages…then my page titled “Islands” could have a photo of an island, and all my posts aboutu islands would show up underneath.)

    THANK YOU!!!

    I am SO silly. I had “featured image” disabled in screen settings for Pages. NO WONDER.

    I would still love to have the ability to Create a PAGE that is an ARCHIVE PAGE so I have the ability to set an image for a specific category of posts. I still cannot figure out how/where to find Archive Content Layout in the page options.

    This is very important as I don’t plan on just having one page where all my blog posts show up. i will probably split them up into dozens of menu items and I don’t want them all to have the same image or no image.

    Thank you in advance!

    @Julia: Sorry there is no option to make different featured image for category/archive. Category/Archive will take default header image and only for page/post there is option to add in featured image.

    @Kavitha: If you have selected homepage only then it will not show. So, for this case you need to use “Entire Site, Page/Post Featured Image”.
