featured images not showing for custom post type

Hello,
I've setup custom post types to display an archive of videos. Each one has content & featured image. Right now it's just using the blog template, but for some reason the featured images aren't displaying. If I switch back to default wordpress theme they work. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

Thanks!

    Hi,

    we are very sorry but we do not offer files customization/modification and this is what creating custom post types require. What we may recommend is to check some custom post types we created under includes/ folder because we checked and we are sure it works as should.

    Hello, I had a programmer work on this and he got stuck. He can't determine what funciton you are using to bring in featured images.  Anything you can suggest to help? 

    From my programmer:::

    For the images, I created an extra file called <strong>taxonomy-vimeo-videos.php</strong> in child theme. Unfortunately, your theme displays posts using a function and I can't determine its internal functionality. I suggest you contact the author and ask for suggestions/help on how to do this.

     From what I see, there is HTML markup in the source of the page but the featured image isn't displayed. Why this happens, I honestly can't tell, only the author can answer this question.

    For featured images we use mfn_post_thumbnail() function from functions/theme-functions.php file but you can use default WP function get_the_post_thumbnail() as well.
