Default Image Assistant allows you to assign a default featured image for each public post type in WordPress.
\nIf a post has no featured image set, the plugin automatically loads the default image you assigned.<\/p>\n\n

Perfect for:\n* Blogs that require a fallback image\n* Custom post type archives\n* Editorial workflows\n* Sites with large content teams<\/p>\n\n

Features:\n* Visual Media Library selector<\/strong> for each post type
\n* Clean and modern card-style admin UI<\/strong>
\n* One-click remove default image<\/strong>
\n* No front-end bloat\u2014only loads when needed
\n* Works with all themes (including block themes)<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the plugin folder to \/wp-content\/plugins\/default-image-assistant\/<\/code><\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins<\/strong> menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
  3. Go to Settings \u2192 Default Image Assistant<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. For each post type:\n\n
      \n
    • Click Select Image<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Choose an image from the Media Library<\/li>\n
    • Save your settings<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

      Your default images will now be used automatically whenever a post does not have a featured image.<\/p>\n\n\n

      \n

      Does this overwrite posts that already have featured images?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      No. If a post already has its own featured image, the plugin does nothing.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Will this slow down my site?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      No. It only uses wp_get_attachment_image()<\/code> and lightweight filters.
      \nNo front-end scripts or styles are loaded.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Can I assign different default images for custom post types?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. Any public post type registered via plugins or themes is supported.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Does it support block themes (FSE)?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. It works regardless of theme type.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
