Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about SNY Auto Featured Image

When a rule is configured with "First Image/Video", the plugin automatically scans your post content upon publish or update. It detects the first embedded image or video (YouTube and Vimeo) and sets its thumbnail as the post's featured image. You can also enable safe sideloading to download and store the media directly in your WordPress Media Library.

By default, no. The plugin is strictly non-destructive and preserves existing hand-picked thumbnails. If you want a specific rule to replace existing featured images, simply check the "Overwrite existing images" option on that rule card.

Conditional rules let you assign different images based on post type, category, tag, or post status. When saving or previewing posts, rules are evaluated from top to bottom (the first matching rule wins). Free includes up to 2 active rules.

The Bulk Operations tab provides a safe dry-run preview. Before making any changes, you can click "Preview Changes" to view a table of up to 50 matching posts, comparing their current thumbnail with the proposed thumbnail, along with the matched rule or skip reason.

Yes! In the Settings tab, enable the "Show featured image column in posts list" option. You can customize the thumbnail size (30–150px) and choose which post types display the thumbnail column.
