Automatically attach stock photos as featured image to your posts without featured image.
Just install the plugin and the set your preference. No coding skills needed.
Stock photos are provided by <a href="https://unsplash.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Unsplash</a>.
<h4>How does it work?</h4>
Checks if the post (any post type with thumbnail support, including pages) has already a featured image associated, if it doesn’t have one, it will fetch a stock photo from Unsplash and upload it to your media library then attach it as featured image.
Please rate and review the plugin if you find it useful.

Instant Images – One-click Image Uploads from Unsplash, Openverse, Pixabay, Pexels, and Giphy

Nice work mate. Amazing tool for development and test site. Kudos to you.

Amazing tool

This is a great plugin that can save you a lot of time if you need to add placeholder images.

Easy to use and time saver


The recent addition of Openverse really makes this one of the best (if not the best) plugins for adding free / creative commons / public domain images/photos/etc. libraries/services to your site.



Some of the image libraries can have limited offerings so this providing as many of these libraries as possible to then pull from really helps with that situation to be able to find the best asset you're looking for.


Best all-in-one solution for free/cc/public domain images/photos/etc.


Exceptionally designed. Super functional.



Does what it says it would. This plugin deserves a 10-star rating.



Great job!


This Plugin Just Works!


Working perfect in WP, but not in ClassicPress. I tested in CP 2.0 and it doesn't load, the loading gif is endless.  P.S. ClassicPress is a modified version of WordPress (without Gutenberg)


Working perfect in WP, but...

There was an error accessing the WP REST API.Instant Images requires access to the WP REST API via POST request to fetch and upload images to your media library.

There was an error accessing the WP REST API


I'm recommending it even on the Newsletter plugin composer: it makes newsletters more professional and save a huge amount of time. Thank you.
