When I add images to a page (e.g. with Page Template "Default") via the Page Media section it automatically uses the first image as primary image even if I not select any. But I only want to use the pictures within the text of the page.

That behaviour is entirely defined by how config and templates have been designed for the theme being used. If the theme does not provide the option to select, or omit, a hero image, or does not provide a suitable template without a hero image, you will have to either choose another theme, or [create a child theme](https://learn.getgrav.org/17/themes/customization#theme-inheritance) and add a new template or override the template of the original (parent) theme. last edited 04/13/23 by pamtbaau [4 years ago](https://getgrav.org/forum/themes-styling/page-without-primary-image-t8504#post-37048 "Permalink") Yes, like [pamtbaau](https://discourse.getgrav.org/u/pamtbaau) mention you can achive that using one of those methods... Below example what to do in theme: First create switch in blueprint, so U need to go to > /user/themes/(theme name)/blueprints/ chose file u want to edit - for example `blog.yaml` and add something like: > ```yaml > header.content.primary: > type: toggle > label: Primary image > highlight: 1 > default: 1 > options: > 1: PLUGIN_ADMIN.ENABLED > 0: PLUGIN_ADMIN.DISABLED > validate: > type: bool > ``` then go to > /user/themes/(theme name)/templates/ and find file that contain info about your main image - might be in `blog.html.twig` or can be in partials folder. Now you need to wrap image in to a toggle checking code something like ```twig {% if header.content.primary == 1 %} {{ page.media.images|first.html() | raw }} {% endif %} ``` Hope this will help. Sorry for spelling mistakes...

I only see a drop-down to select which one. But where would I disable it? Best regards [4 years ago](https://getgrav.org/forum/themes-styling/page-without-primary-image-t8504#post-37054 "Permalink") @Thorben, If you are using the latest version of the Future2021 theme, in the content tab, below the primary image selection box, there should be a toggle button to select whether to display it or not. In this theme, the option to display the primary image is in the default template, so it will be available for all pages, not just blog item pages. ![IMG_20230414_223625|369x500](https://cdn.getgrav.org/forum/files/e9/e9f13f25ccab9ac77586fee70f7bfd70aedafb49856fceb3a79495efc23893fe.jpeg) [4 years ago](https://getgrav.org/forum/themes-styling/page-without-primary-image-t8504#post-37057 "Permalink") I‘m using the latest version installed via the grav admin plugin page. But it seems that’s then not referring to the latest version? [4 years ago](https://getgrav.org/forum/themes-styling/page-without-primary-image-t8504#post-37064 "Permalink") @Thorben, It's true. This option to display the image has already been in the development branch of the theme for a few weeks, but I haven't published the next version. Sorry for this mishap. In the next few days I will release the new version. In the meantime you can try the development branch version.
