## 外掛說明

**Setup Default Featured Image** 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.

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.

#### Why You Need a Default Featured Image

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 **
Setup Default Featured Image** plugin fills that gap automatically, keeping your
site polished and consistent at all times.

#### Key Features

 * **One-click default image setup** — Choose any image from your Media Library 
   as the global fallback featured image.
 * **Works everywhere** — Applies to posts, pages, and all registered custom post
   types automatically.
 * **Include / exclude post types** — Limit or skip specific post types so the default
   only applies where you need it.
 * **Include / exclude by category** — Fine-grained control to apply (or skip) the
   default image for specific categories.
 * **Zero configuration required** — Install, activate, select your image, done.
 * **Lightweight and fast** — No bloat; the plugin adds no overhead to your front-
   end.
 * **Advanced taxonomy rules** _(Pro)_ — Set different default images per taxonomy
   term for complete control.

#### Perfect For

 * Blogs and news sites with high publishing volume
 * WooCommerce stores where product images may be missing
 * Membership or multi-author sites where contributors forget to add thumbnails
 * Any site that uses a grid or card-based theme relying on featured images

#### How It Works

 1. Install and activate the plugin.
 2. Go to **Settings  Default Featured Image**.
 3. Click **Select Image** and choose your fallback from the Media Library.
 4. Save — every post or page without a featured image will now display your chosen
    default automatically.

No shortcodes, no coding, no template edits required.

## 常見問題集

### What happens if a post already has a featured image set?

Nothing changes. The default featured image only acts as a fallback — it will never
override an image that has already been manually assigned to a post or page.

### Does this work with custom post types?

Yes. The plugin works with all post types registered on your site, including custom
post types created by themes or other plugins.

### Can I exclude certain post types from using the default image?

Yes. The plugin includes include/exclude settings per post type so you have full
control over where the default image is applied.

### Can I exclude specific categories?

Yes. You can include or exclude specific categories so the default image is only
applied where it makes sense for your content.

### The default featured image isn’t showing on my site — what should I do?

First, confirm that your theme uses the standard WordPress `get_the_post_thumbnail()`
or `the_post_thumbnail()` functions to display featured images. If the problem persists,
please [open a support thread](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/setup-default-feature-image/)
with details about your theme and setup.

### Is this plugin compatible with page builders like Elementor and Divi?

Yes. As long as the page builder or theme uses standard WordPress functions to retrieve
featured images, the default image will appear correctly.

### Will the default image appear in SEO meta tags and social sharing previews?

Yes, in most cases. SEO plugins like Yoast SEO and Rank Math read the featured image
via standard WordPress functions, so your default image will be used in Open Graph
and Twitter Card meta tags as well.

### Does the plugin slow down my site?

No. The plugin is deliberately lightweight and only hooks into the existing WordPress
thumbnail retrieval process — it adds no front-end scripts, styles, or database 
queries beyond what is necessary.

### Is there a Pro version?

Yes! [Setup Default Featured Image Pro](https://www.codesmade.com/store/setup-default-featured-image-pro/)
adds advanced taxonomy-based rules, letting you set different default images per
category, tag, or any custom taxonomy term.
