<p>This plugin allows to set a featured image for each category.<br />
Posts without a featured image set will show the category’s featured image instead.<br />
Featured images usually are placed by the theme in the single post page, in the latest posts page, etc.<br />
But can also be shown using the shortcode <em>[cfi_featured_image]</em> or the PHP function <em>cfi_featured_image()</em>. To get the featured image URL I added the function <em>cfi_featured_image_url()</em>.</p>
<p>Shortcode/PHP function optional arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li>‘size’: ‘thumbnail’, ‘medium’, ‘large’, ‘full’</li>
<li>‘class’: class of the image tag</li>
<li>‘alt’: alternative text of the image tag</li>
<li>‘title’: title of the image tag</li>
<li>‘cat_id’: select a specific category id</li>
</ul>
<p>Shortcode example:</p>
<pre><code>[cfi_featured_image size="large" title="This is a test..." class="my-image" alt="My image"]
</code></pre>
<p>Function example 1:</p>
<pre><code>cfi_featured_image( array( 'size' => 'large', 'title' => 'This is a test...', 'class' => 'my-image', 'alt' => 'My image' ) );
</code></pre>
<p>Function example 2:</p>
<pre><code>cfi_featured_image_url( array( 'size' => 'large' ) );
</code></pre>
<p>Notes:</p>
<ul>
<li>If a post has more than a category with a featured image the first available is loaded</li>
<li>If a category hasn’t a featured image but it has a parent category with a featured image the parent one is loaded</li>
</ul>

This plugin does one thing and it does it well.
It's easy to use, too: install, set up the default category images and forget about it.



Does one thing and does it well
