28,802 PointsHow do I remove images from my Wordpress post (above the text) so that I only have the image inside the post?
Need to remove images automatically generated above text when post is made. I have already used hide image plugin and hide title. Thank you for your help!

Step 1 is to verify what's inserting the image. Do you know what's doing that? It's almost certainly a plugin.

Courses Plus Student 34,936 PointsMoses,
It's unlikely that someone can help you solve this remotely, especially if you're using a custom theme with Visual Composer. VC adds all sorts of abstraction, and folks won't know what custom features your theme has that might be causing the auto-inserted image. It could also be a plugin (or a Visual Composer add-on, there are many of those), so it's quite a can of worms.

From what you describe this may well be the featured image you are setting being used.
If so a good theme will simply not display anything if the featured image is not set at all. Let me know if this is not the case. If the site is live by all means point me at the site and I can take a closer look :)

28,802 PointsHi Craig,
Thank you for your response. The feature image is set to nothings and I have even used a "hide image" plugin. I'm thinking two things. One there is a conditional in the functions.php that allows this image that was used in a blog post to appear below the master head in every post. Or maybe i need to look into making a child theme? Thanks for all thr help and support.
-and sorry it is not live, due to this issue

27,930 PointsHi Moses,
Could you tell me what theme you are using? Maybe I can h stick a black version on a local install and help to see what is going on :)

27,930 PointsHi Moses on which page are the images coming in that you are not expecting to see?
For example, you have created an about page and for no reason there is a background image behind the page title?
Some thing like that, just need a little more detail.

28,802 PointsHi Craig,
I have created a blog page...ex http://www.example.com/blog. This page holds a main image right below the header and above the text displaying the blogs. When I click on the picture it is linked to the first blog post containing that same picture inside of the post next to the text...this was done in visual composer. I have tried going to the editor to see if there was a php condition that added this thumbnail when a post is created, but I think visual composer has some automatic generation in it's framework. Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it! :)

28,802 PointsCan I show you php conditions that I found for the thumbnail? I think removing one of these will fix the problem. Thank you :)

23,118 Pointsif you are going to post a lot of code you will need to format it so we can read your post. What you posted is one minimized php file. I can not read it.

28,802 PointsDo you think it has to do with me using visual composer? Also when I tried to edit the php in the editor to check if there were any conditions that caused this to happen automatically, it just showed a framework file and not the post php file?
