    I’d like to have my featured image appear when using the shortcode, but I’m also using a plugin for external featured images, it’s called Nelio External Featured Image. When my featured image is set with the Nelio plugin, it isn’t shown by this plugin. If my featured image is set in the normal way, then it is shown by this plugin. Is there a way to resolve this? I don’t mind working with code if necessary?

    Hi David,

    I was looking at the plugin you use and my understanding is that the plugin is not adding images in the site at all, it is just changing the output functions the_post_thumbnail and get_the_post_thumbnail, but the images are not actually in your site, as regular media files, and the other native functions will not recognize the images.

    If you want to use my plugin, but you want to change the code, the solution would be to change some lines to use only the functions that the Nelio External Featured Image is changing.

    Change the lines 744 -> 749 to
    $image = get_the_post_thumbnail( intval( $post->ID ), $args[‘image’] );
    if ( ! empty( $image ) ) {
    $tile = str_replace( ‘[image]’, $image, $tile );
    } else {
    $tile = str_replace( ‘[image]’, ”, $tile );
    }

    Let me know if this helps.

    Thanks for getting back to me. Unfortunately, that change did not resolve the issue.

    Hi, I added a filter for the image that should be also compatible with the plugin you mention you use for the image. Please upgrade to 6.1 and let me know if this works for you.
