Modern Portfolio: How to add featured image above post title

[alexshenkarMember]

Hi Guys,

I'm using the Modern Portfolio theme.

You can see how he post page appears at this link:

http://iskconme.staging.wpengine.com/test-post/

I would like to add a featured image above the post title but below the breadcrumbs.

Here is an example of the concept I'm going for: http://torquemag.io/whos-in/

I've found some code snippets out there, but they seemingly haven't had any effect:


remove_action( 'genesis_post_content', 'genesis_do_post_image' );
add_action( 'genesis_before_post_title', 'genesis_do_post_image' );


And I've also tried this:


add_action( 'genesis_before_post_content', 'generate_post_image', 5 );
function generate_post_image() {

if ( is_page() || ! genesis_get_option( 'content_archive_thumbnail' ) )
return;

if ( $image = genesis_get_image( array( 'format' => 'url', 'size' => genesis_get_option( 'image_size' ) ) ) ) {
printf( '', get_permalink(), $image, the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) );
}

}


How can I make this happen? Seems like it ought not be too difficult.

I appreciate anyone's input. Thank you! -Alexander

I was able to figure it out myself.

I used this plugin to call on the featured image using a shortcode:

http://wordpress.org/plugins/add-post-thumbnail-shortcode/

And then I used the genesis simple hooks plugin to insert the featured image shortcode above the title:

http://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-simple-hooks/

All good.

Closing!

Great that you found a solution. I was intrigued by the question and found this Genesis solution for functions.php from Vivek at wpstuffs.com.

/* Code to Display Featured Image on top of the post */
add_action( 'genesis_before_post', 'featured_post_image', 8 );
function featured_post_image() {
  if ( ! is_singular( 'post' ) )  return;
	the_post_thumbnail('post-image');
}

He has also posted an HTML5 version and some additional notes.
