<p>ATTENTION for WP Version 5+: This plugin does not work with Gutenberg (no problems with Classic Editor plugin though)! Gutenberg brings its own HTML structure for oEmbed elements, which is quite difficult to target.</p>
<p>This plugin checks, if the first line of the content is a valid oEmbed URL. If that is the case, it replaces the thumbnail image with the oEmbed element (e. g. with a YouTube video). Now you don’t have to care too much about a thumbnail image, since instead you would see the video or any other oEmbed content. You can even e. g. watch videos on your blogs front page without opening the post.</p>
<p>Works for all WordPress contents, which have a thumbnail set and are not password protected.</p>
<p>The active WordPress Theme must use the_post_thumbnail() or get_the_post_thumbnail() functions for this to work!</p>


Replace Thumbnail with oEmbed

Replaces the thumbnail image with the oEmbed element from the first line of the content.

<p>Video Thumbnails makes it easy to automatically display video thumbnails in your template. When you publish a post, this plugin will find the first video embedded and retrieve a thumbnail for you. Thumbnails can be saved to your media library and set as a featured image automatically. There’s even support for custom post types and custom fields!</p>
<p>Video Thumbnails Reloaded is based on Video Thumbnails developed by Sutherland Boswell<br />
