    I just switched to the Breakthrough Pro theme and the featured image on my theme keeps showing the default image on single posts and single portfolio items. I have added a featured image for the posts and regenerated the thumbnails. The featured image shows up in the post and portfolio archive pages.

    Any idea what's a possible cause for this?

    The Breakthrough Pro code uses a default featured image if the featured image isn't set for a post, page, or portfolio image.

    If your go to Appearance / Customizer / Breakthrough Pro Settings / Image Settings, look for Default Post, Page, and Portfolio Image and remove the image.

    Thanks Victor, that was an easy setting to overlook.

    I did just disable it and thankfully the default image is not showing. However ... no image is showing! I did try removing & resetting the featured image in a blog post and still no featured image appears.

    I just checked the source code and there's no image there either:
    <div class="full-width-image"><img src="" alt="" class="breakthrough-single-image post-image"></div>

    You can take a look at https://rockstardads.com/blog if you'd like.

    Same problem here.
    Featured image is not showing in all pages.
    If the default image in Customizer is used it will be displayed.

    Any idea?

    Not sure if this helps.
    Are you guys using Jetpack?
    Turns out when I turn off 'Enable site accelerator' the Featured Images appear.

    Turning that option off while I figure out how to solve this.

    There was an even simpler cause/solution: there's an option in the Customizer where you can set a default featured image that overrides individual images.

    Appearance > Customize > Breakthrough Pro Settings > Image Settings > Default Post, Page, and Portfolio Image

    I do understand that option will make a default image appear if you don't set a featured image in your page/post.

    However for certain pages/posts, I want to be able to overwrite that default image.

    It is working fine if I turn off Jetpack's Site Acceleration option but I do want to use this Jetpack feature.
