2,916 PointsCustom Post Types UI Featured image gone
Hi,
I'm using the Custom Post Types UI and Advanced Custom Fields plugins to create some extra post types.
Weird thing is since the latest update of Wordpress, the featured images on these post types have vanished and I can't get them to appear again.
Existing custom posts still have the featured image, but when checking the backend, the featured image box is missing. Creating new items doesn't show the box either.
Anyone experienced something similar?
Tried;
add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' ); & add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails', array( 'post', 'page', 'my-type' ) );
without success unfortunately...

2,916 PointsI did, nothing there
But after about 8 hours or trial and error I added:
add_post_type_support( 'my-type', 'thumbnail' ); post_type_supports( 'my-type', 'thumbnail' );
and I got them to show again. Just don't know if it's a clean way to show them.
Thanks for the tip anyways!
