This plugin adds a section to your Settings menu in the wp-admin section. Through that section you can perform two tasks:

  • A scripted, one-time action updating all of the posts in your blog that do not have a featured image where the script will either try to find a suitable image to use or use one you have provided and configure it for you.
  • An ongoing, continuous monitoring for posts that do not have a featured image, using the same logic to try and find a suitable featured image and setting that for the post.

You can find additional documentation for this plugin on the author’s blog blog.nickleghorn.com

Special thanks to Robert Farago for giving me yet another massive site without any Featured Images to clean up for the impetus to finally make this available.
