<h4>Simplify Your Editing Life</h4>
<p>Requires your various post types — as specified in a simple options page — to have a featured image set before they can be published. If a lack of featured images causes your layout to break, or just look less-than-optimal, this is the plugin for you.</p>
<p>Rather than forcing you to manually enforce your editorial standards of including a featured image in every post, if your contributors fail to add a featured image to a post before publishing it they’ll simply find it impossible to publish.</p>
<h4>Setting up the Plugin</h4>
<p>By default it works on the “Post” content type only, but you can specify other content types, or turn it off for Posts in the new options page in your left sidebar: Settings > Req Featured Image. Simply check and uncheck the appropriate types, set a minimum image size if you desire, hit save and you’re all set. Happy publishing!</p>

Require Featured Image

Very useful plugin

Works on WP 5.8 with build in Gutenberg editor for CPT = posts

When you remove the image the message re-appears

Does what it needs to do

<p>Adds a [post_thumbnail] shortcode for use with wordpress post thumbnails. Size can also be set using [post_thumbnail size=”XXXX”]. (You can call the function directly in your theme with <code><?php post_thumbnail('size=thumbnail');?></code>.)</p>
<p>Just insert the shortcode into any post’s content and when it will be replaced with the featured image.</p>
<p>This works only with the featured images introduced in WordPress 2.9.</p>
