Le immagini in evidenza sono importanti in WordPress, ma alcuni dei nostri lettori ci hanno chiesto se è possibile nasconderle sui singoli post. Avevano un’immagine in evidenza per una specifica pubblicazione, ma non volevano che i visitatori del loro sito web potessero vederla.
Secondo la nostra esperienza, nascondere alcune immagini in evidenza può essere utile se si desidera una maggiore flessibilità nel layout del sito o se si vuole mantenere un aspetto pulito e professionale.
In questo articolo vi mostreremo come nascondere le immagini in evidenza sui singoli post di WordPress.
Quando e perché nascondere le immagini in primo piano in WordPress è utile?
Quasi tutti i temi WordPress sono dotati di un supporto integrato per la visualizzazione di immagini in evidenza o miniature in diverse aree del sito web.
Alcuni temi utilizzano anche automaticamente gli allegati dei post come immagine in primo piano se non è specificata alcuna immagine. Ciò significa che mostreranno comunque un’immagine in primo piano anche se non è stata impostata.
Tuttavia, in alcune situazioni si potrebbe desiderare di nascondere l’immagine in primo piano.
Ad esempio, potreste avere un post di un blog WordPress che sembra ingombro di immagini in primo piano. Ma volete comunque che l’immagine in primo piano venga visualizzata quando viene elencata nella pagina separata del blog.
In questo caso, è necessario nasconderla nel singolo post del blog senza eliminare o rimuovere completamente l’immagine.
Detto questo, vi mostriamo come nascondere l’immagine in primo piano su singoli post in WordPress, passo dopo passo.

Nascondere le immagini in primo piano dai singoli post di WordPress
Per nascondere facilmente le immagini in primo piano dai post di WordPress, si consiglia di utilizzare il plugin Conditionally Display Featured Image. Esso consente di nascondere le singole immagini in primo piano nei post di WordPress.
La prima cosa da fare è installare e attivare il plugin. Per maggiori dettagli, consultate la nostra guida passo passo su come installare un plugin di WordPress.
Dopodiché, il plugin funziona subito e non ci sono impostazioni da configurare.
Basta andare su Messaggi ” Tutti i messaggi e fare clic sul messaggio che si desidera aprire.
Poi, nella schermata di modifica del post, vedrete una casella che dice “Visualizza l’immagine in primo piano solo negli elenchi dei post, nascondi nelle visualizzazioni singole” direttamente sotto l’immagine in primo piano.
Per nascondere l’immagine in primo piano, è sufficiente selezionare questa casella e fare clic sul pulsante “Aggiorna” per salvare le modifiche.
Dopodiché, è possibile visualizzare il post e si noterà che l’immagine in primo piano è nascosta. Anche se c’è un’immagine in primo piano assegnata al post, non verrà visualizzata.
Questo plugin non elimina o disattiva la miniatura del post. Si limita a nasconderla sul front-end del vostro sito WordPress. Se si desidera mostrare nuovamente l’immagine in primo piano, è sufficiente modificare il post e deselezionare la casella Nascondi immagine in primo piano.
Se si utilizzano tipi di post personalizzati con supporto per le immagini in primo piano, il plugin consente di nascondere anche le immagini in primo piano.

After hiding the featured image in the single post view, will it be displayed when I share the post on social media (like WhatsApp)?
WPBeginner Support
It would depend on what your site’s markup is, if you have an SEO plugin then those allow you to set the same or different images to appear for social media.

Is there a possibility to hide the featured image on the archive only, but not on the single Post page?
WPBeginner Support
If you reach out to your theme’s support they would be able to help with that kind of customization.

When I set a feature images for a post, it automatically comes at the top of a post, which I do not want to be there.
How can I remove that image in the top of a post?
WPBeginner Support
You would want to reach out to your theme’s support as each theme has a different method for displaying that.

I ‘ve added a featured image only for share in facebook, I don’t want it displayed at top of the post. So I am using this plugin.
It works okay if the user selects a post from Recent Posts but it doesn’t if the user clicks on one of the Archives dates or on of one of the Categories
WPBeginner Support
Thanks for letting us know, you may want to reach out to the plugin’s author to let them know about that issue.
Admin
Daniels
The plugin’s webpage is blank. I did contact the author by email but he didn’t reply yet.
Do you know another way to always hide the featured image?
I’ve read Yoast does the task in a different way (no need to add a featured photo, just set which one to use for facebook posts) but it is a paid feature.
I use WPSSO plugins that let me preview a facebook post using featured image.
Thank you
WPBeginner Support
You may want to reach out to your theme’s support and they may have a recommended method to hide or remove the featured image.
Jay
Hello,
Combed through all the responses. Still needing help.
For Ali who recommended:
Enter this code into your theme’s custom CSS area:
.single.postid-99 .post-img {display: none;}
Replace “99” with the post id for which you want to hide the featured image.
and Jim who recommended:
Put in the theme options / general/ css
.single-post .et_post_meta_wrapper > img{
display:none;
}
____________________________________________
I have the Herschel theme if that sheds some light.
I have tried both in the custom css box and neither solution have worked.
Have also tried hiding image from ALL posts under the settings.
Do the above solutions need to go in a specific area of the css box?
Otherwise, this plugin is not working for me.
Thanks!
WPBeginner Support
Sadly, the plugin may not be working for your theme, you could try reaching out to the plugin’s support to see if there is an issue with the theme you are using.

I like that plugin you showed in the youtube video, it’s really simple.
Although, It’s not really friendly with Elementor. When I add a photo gallary in, in replace of my featured image on my post, the plugin will not only hide the featured image, but that photo gallary as well. Anyone know a fix or a different plugin?
ANTESH KUMAR SINGH
Can it affect my website SEO or ranking?
Iris
Yes, because your “real” content is the first thing Google reads at your page (after title etc).
It won’t do much, but it won’t hurt.
Jimmie
I am using the “Hide Featured Image” plug-in in an effort get rid of the big empty box in the middle of my product pages. It works. However, when I do this, it negatively affects the images in the product gallery below. To see what I mean, please refer to this page which has the featured image hidden:
When the plug-in is set to “off” on the page, the product photos are coordinated properly with the color option chosen & that part works like a charm.
How can I get them to both work together?
THANKS
WPBeginner Support
Hi Jimmie,
Try disabling all other plugins to see if this solves the issue. If it does, then activate them one by one until this issue occurs again. This will help you find out if another plugin is causing the conflict.

Hi Tony,
Your theme may be designed to pick up any image from your posts to automatically use as featured image on the homepage. Please contact theme author, they will be able to guide you.

It’s going to be strenous for like lots of post.. Is there a plugin that can do it all at once?
Sheree
Is there any way to stop the featured image from showing up on the home page as well?? This plug-in works well to hide it in posts, but my home page (which is just a feed of blog posts) is now a mess of featured images.
Basically, I just want the feature image attached to the post for RSS feed newsletters and social sharing, but I don’t want it to appear in the article OR on my homepage. I’ve been tearing my hair out on this for hours…

Sagar Patil
it worked, thanks.

When I found this, I expected to read something about SEO too. The question is what SEO effect does hiding featured image have, especially if it’s hidden by css on a post type because you don’t want it to appear on that post type only?
Lisa Scott
You are a lifesaver. Thanks so much. This worked beautifully for me. So glad to have it all straightened out.
Kreshnik
Thanks for the post, it’s help me a lot but can i hide Featured Images from all my video post formats.
Chris R
Does this work such that on the HOME page, the featured image would display, but for the post itself, you could hide it? (So, for example, you might have a static thumb in the home page loop, but want to show a slider in the post itself).
Josh M
I’m trying to figure out how to do the same thing with no luck.
I would like the featured images to be displayed as thumbnails on the homepage. But for the post pages I want to hide the featured image from a certain post, but have the featured on other posts still display on the posts page. I would like to do this without adding a plugin.
Let me know if you were able to solve this.
Anita
I have the exact same issue.
Ali
I have the same issue. Any luck?
Ali
I found a solution for this.
Enter this code into your theme’s custom CSS area:
.single.postid-99 .post-img {display: none;}
Replace “99” with the post id for which you want to hide the featured image.
