Default Thumbnail Image

    I currently have my archive set to do something like this: if post has featured image, use that, if not, use the first image from the post. This is working fine. However, I want to take it a step further and say if no image in post, use a default image. This way ill be able to use featured images if needed, if not grab the first image, and if no image has been used, use a default image. Here is my current html and logic that is working.

    <div class="post-thumb">
			<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/timthumb.php?src=<?php if (  (function_exists('has_post_thumbnail')) && (has_post_thumbnail())  ) {
  echo PostThumbURL();
} else {
   echo main_image();
} ?>&w=200&h=200&zc=1" alt="image" class="frame" /></a>
		</div>

    I have tried a few things. It seems like I need to get this code into the logic somehow but im not great with php just yet.

    <?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
the_post_thumbnail();
} else { ?>
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/default-image.jpg" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />
<?php } ?>

    Thanks for any help.

    It looks like you need an elseif()

    if ( has_post_thumbnail() ){
   echo PostThumbURL();
}elseif( the_post_thumbnail() ){
   echo "<img src>";
}else{
  <!-- all else fails code -->
}

    Hope that helps…
