I couldn't find the solution of not indexing my blog post feature images. I am using yoast seo plugin. Every blog post got index but not feature images.
 
How are you sure it's not indexed? It could be that it's not ranking. Also, check for noimageindex meta tag

I search image url with (site: ). Also in search console, it shows indexing allow status NA..
 
there is a setting to index and noindex image in rankmath like this below, im pretty sure yoast also have this feature

first, make sure that your images are properly optimized and have descriptive alt text. yoast usually helps with image SEO but sometimes you may need to check your settings. go to the media settings in your wordpress dashboard and ensure that the images are set to be indexed.

images urls are not meant to be indexed in the typical google SERPs,
they could be crawled, indexed by google image bot and rank within google images tab,
they could also appear within the SERPs under the "images" snippet, but not meant to be as one of the ranking pages,

if you want to double check whenever google images is crawling and indexing the images,
search with site operator for the page/post containing the image(s) and click the "images" tab in google, it should be there
 
Make sure feature images have proper alt text, submit them to GSC and create an image sitemap using Yoast SEO.
 
If your featured images are not getting indexed with Yoast SEO, it might be due to how your images are set up. Check if you’ve accidentally set a “noindex” tag for images in Yoast SEO settings. Go to SEO > Search Appearance > Media, and make sure that media URLs are not set to "no". Additionally, confirm that your images have proper alt text and are not blocked by the robots.txt file.
