if statement - Liquid Hide Featured image and show placeholder

Solution:

One thing that jumps out at me is 'featured-image'. Usually schema ID's will use underscores, not hyphens. It might help to post that part of your schema code to see if there's anything wrong there.

Checking the CLI for any errors might help as well (if you're using the CLI).

Another thing you could do is use an{% else %} tag, instead of two IF tags, which will clean things up a bit.

{% if featured-image != blank %}
  <div>
    <img src="{{ article | img_url: 'master' }}" loading="lazy" alt="{{ article.alt }}" class="featured_image">
  </div>
{% else %}
  <div class="placeholder_image"></div>
{% endif %}
