    I tried using the code from here but it didn't work. Anyone know how to make featured images show up in a post?

    Thanks in advance

    What theme are you using?

    Please link to your site.

    Try this

    Note: The old Balance theme uses the OLD XHTML LOOP HOOKS so make sure you use the code for that.

    Thanks Brad. I am using Balance 1.0 - I didn't realize that it used xhtml loop hooks - should I switch to a theme that uses html 5 for the hooks?

    Brad, I ended up using code from a different page on your site. This worked great, thank you!

    Cool. I would consider converting your theme to HTML 5 at some stage as its better markup and validates better in different browsers.
