<p><strong>Setup Default Featured Image</strong> is the simplest way to ensure every post, page, and custom post type on your WordPress site always displays a featured image — even when one hasn’t been set manually.</p>
<p>Missing featured images break your layout, hurt your branding, and make your site look unfinished. This plugin solves the problem in seconds: pick a fallback image from your Media Library, and it will automatically appear as the featured image wherever a specific one hasn’t been chosen.</p>
<h4>Why You Need a Default Featured Image</h4>
<p>WordPress doesn’t ship with a built-in fallback for featured images. That means any post without a manually selected thumbnail will render without one — leaving blank spaces in your blog grid, archive pages, and social media previews. The <strong>Setup Default Featured Image</strong> plugin fills that gap automatically, keeping your site polished and consistent at all times.</p>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>One-click default image setup</strong> — Choose any image from your Media Library as the global fallback featured image.</li>
<li><strong>Works everywhere</strong> — Applies to posts, pages, and all registered custom post types automatically.</li>
<li><strong>Include / exclude post types</strong> — Limit or skip specific post types so the default only applies where you need it.</li>
<li><strong>Include / exclude by category</strong> — Fine-grained control to apply (or skip) the default image for specific categories.</li>
<li><strong>Zero configuration required</strong> — Install, activate, select your image, done.</li>
<li><strong>Lightweight and fast</strong> — No bloat; the plugin adds no overhead to your front-end.</li>
<li><strong>Advanced taxonomy rules</strong> <em>(Pro)</em> — Set different default images per taxonomy term for complete control.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Perfect For</h4>
<ul>
<li>Blogs and news sites with high publishing volume</li>
<li>WooCommerce stores where product images may be missing</li>
<li>Membership or multi-author sites where contributors forget to add thumbnails</li>
<li>Any site that uses a grid or card-based theme relying on featured images</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Install and activate the plugin.</li>
<li>Go to <strong>Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Default Featured Image</strong>.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Select Image</strong> and choose your fallback from the Media Library.</li>
<li>Save — every post or page without a featured image will now display your chosen default automatically.</li>
</ol>
<p>No shortcodes, no coding, no template edits required.</p>
