Kyle Poyser
61 PointsYes, the issue was that there is a new version of the custom post plugin and in the plugin you have to specify the settings for displaying the post-tumbnails.
Thanks for your reply,

EDIT: I'm sorry, I think I mis-understood the problem. Just to clarify, you are not seeing the option to attach a Featured Image to a page or post?
