Post Image – Default for None

    I am using this code:

    <?php
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
echo the_post_thumbnail();
}
else {
echo "";
}
?>

    to get the post thumbnails from the blog. It’s setting up fine, but how do I make it display another image if there is none. You can see it is the PHP if and else statements, but I don’t know how to make to do an image.

    All help is appreciated!

    Try:

    <?php
if ( has_post_thumbnail() )  echo the_post_thumbnail();
else {
	echo '<img src="https://domain/image.jpg" width="xx" height="yy" alt="" />';
}
?>

    I just tried that function has_post_thumbnail and got this error:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function has_post_thumbnail() in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress-2.9.1\wordpress\wp-content\themes\mclabs\inner_page.php on line 11

    Sorry figured it out, I added the add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' ); to my functions.php file and it sorted it out

    Sorry. I assumed you already had that in place.

    Great, esmi. How can we make this more dynamic?

    <?php
if ( has_post_thumbnail() )  echo the_post_thumbnail();
else {
	echo '<img src="https://domain/image.jpg" width="xx" height="yy" alt="" />';
}
?>

    See how it says domain/image.jpg? How can I do the <?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?> so it will work in all sites, but still inside this code?
