Hello,
I’m using the SiteOrigin Post Carousel. This widget only shows thumbnails when I have set a featured image in a post. Otherwise theres a grey block.
Is there a code which automatically set the first image in a post as a Featured image?
This is important for the users of the website so they won’t have to make too many actions to post something the way we want.
I also use Nextgen Galleries in my posts. Is it also possible to make the first image in such a post a Featured Image?
Hi gerkof
You’d need to try a plugin for this. I haven’t used one yet but here is an idea:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoset-featured-image/
or
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=auto+featured+image
Hope that helps.
Hello,
Thank you! The plugin doesn’t work for my gallery-posts, but it works for all other posts with images or sliders.
Thanks for the feedback. This is unfortunately a new area for me. If you’d like to troubleshoot this you’d perhaps need to chat the plugin author about how it could be extended into your gallery-posts, if that’s possible.
Thanks, I will do that!
