## Popis

Auto Featured Image automatically fixes missing featured images and thumbnails across
your WordPress site.

Generate featured images from post titles, extract images from post content, or 
bulk assign thumbnails using advanced filters and scheduling — all in just a few
clicks.

It works seamlessly with Gutenberg, Elementor, Classic Editor, and any custom post
type.

No more manual uploads. No more posts going live without featured images.

With Auto Featured Image, you can:

 * Generate featured images in bulk
 * Create dynamic images from post titles
 * Detect and assign images already inside post content
 * Automatically apply default fallback images
 * Set advanced filters and control generation rules
 * Schedule bulk image generation

Whether you run a small blog or manage thousands of posts, Auto Featured Image saves
hours of repetitive work and keeps your website visually consistent — automatically.

### 🚀 How It Works

### Step 1: Choose a Generation Method

Select how featured images should be created:

 * Find in post – Uses the first image found inside the content.
 * Generate from title – Creates a featured image dynamically using the post title.
 * Find or generate – Uses existing images, otherwise generates one.
 * Find or use default image – Falls back to a predefined image if none is found.

### Step 2: Filter Your Posts

Apply filters to control exactly where images should be generated:

 * Post Type
 * Post Status
 * Post Category
 * Date Range

This ensures you only modify the content you intend to.

### Step 3: Generate in One Click

Click **Generate Featured Images** and the plugin:

 * Processes posts in bulk
 * Shows real-time progress
 * Logs the last 100 generated images
 * Updates thumbnails instantly in the posts list

### 🔥 Core Features (Free Version)

✅ **Bulk Generate Featured Images:** Automatically create and assign featured images
to multiple posts at once. Perfect for fixing older content in minutes instead of
hours.

✅ **Find Images Inside Content:** Automatically detect the first image inside a
post and set it as the featured image. Ideal for blogs that already include images
but missed setting thumbnails.

✅ **Generate from Title:** Create clean, text-based featured images using the post
title. Great for minimal blogs, news sites, and content-heavy websites.

✅ **Default Fallback Image:** Set a default image that will be applied whenever
no suitable image is found, ensuring every post always has a featured image.

✅ **One-Click Generation:** Generate featured images for all selected posts instantly
from a single dashboard screen.

✅ **Generation Log:** Monitor recently generated images with preview, size, generation
method, and status for full transparency and control.

✅ **Live Preview Mode:** Instantly see how your featured image will look while 
adjusting background, font, alignment, colors, and layout settings. No need to save
and regenerate repeatedly.

✅ **Posts List Integration:** Generate, set, or remove featured images directly
from the WordPress Posts screen using bulk actions. Manage multiple posts at once
without opening each post individually.

Skip the old reviews. This plugin simply works. I have a client that does not add
feature images and it makes the site look bad, but this plugin solves the problem
automatically. Thanks for the fixes. Please be encouraged and keep it updated. I
don’t need new features, just keep it updated so it continues to work. I plan to
upgrade to PRO in the future. Thanks for the great plugin!
