WARNING: 97 Posts. MANY now with copyrighted images for featured images

Hello SmileWP,

It really depends on your settings. Historically, Google Images was the first source for getting images into the plugin (more than 10 years ago) into the plugin, but over the years, other image banks have been added: Pixabay, Openverse (formerly CC Search), Pexels, Unsplash, Envato Elements, and even DALL-E.

Additionally, you can use the “Rights” setting under Google Images to search only for copyright-free images. With the Pro version, you can also use “Restricted domains” and “Blacklisted domains” to control where the images come from.

I recommend adjusting your settings if you don’t want to worry about copyright issues. You could try using sources like Pixabay or Openverse (available in the free version), or explore Envato Elements, Pexels, Unsplash, and DALL-E with the Pro version.

Please consider giving the plugin another try by changing your settings (I’m happy to provide support if needed) and, if possible, update your review based on your new experience.

Regards

Update: I created a web blog article:

Magic Thumbnail added an image

“Using Pipedrive Integrations to Boost Sales productivity.”

WHAT? Pipedrive isn’t even a word in the article.

I removed the image and hit Generate Automatically again.

Same image. No matter how many times you generate automatically, Magic Thumbnail returns the same image.

If a user generates an image automatically, then removes the image and gens a new one, it really should gen a new one because that clearly indicates that the prior image was not acceptable or desired by the user.

Another HUGE helpful addition would be three fields and one checkbox near the Generate Automatically button:

1. Required Keywords: Users can enter one or more keywords that MUST be in the image,
2. Required Title: Users can enter a phrase that should be the image title (for organic SEO success),
3. Never Use Keywords: Users can enter one or more keywords that MUSTNEVER be in the image.

The checkbox: [_] Use keywords from the excerpt in the image.

I hope these constructive notes help make the plugin better–it is 90% perfect already, and helps productivity–when it helps.
