Works awesome
by stefaniehaser·4 years ago

Crazy cool plugin! It works great (also with page builders like Elementor). Thank you.

Nice tool
by Alin Andrei·5 years ago

Great tool. It would’ve been nice if it could support bulk upload of featured images, as a gallery (just like in woocommerce product galleries).

Thanks!

A must-have
by Nate Zander·5 years ago·1 reply

Adds so much more flexibility for designing a post, or displaying content in different contexts (home page, single post, archive). Thank you for this great plugin!

Extraordinary
by niceapps·6 years ago

Exactly what I was looking for ! Works great with the latest version of WordPress (5.3)

No need for shortcode! To obtain a featured image that loads automatically according to the language of the plugin qtranslate-x, you can add in the file functions.php:

add_filter( 'kdmfi_featured_images', function( $featured_images ) {
	$args = array(
	  'id' => 'featured-image-en',
	  'desc' => 'English version of the feature image.',
	  'label_name' => 'English featured image',
	  'label_set' => 'Set english featured image',
	  'label_remove' => 'Remove english featured image',
	  'label_use' => 'Set english featured image',
	  'post_type' => array( 'page', 'post', 'portfolio', 'app' ),
	);
  
	$featured_images[] = $args;
  
	return $featured_images;
  });

  add_filter( 'get_post_metadata', 'wdm_change_featured_image', 10, 4 );
function wdm_change_featured_image( $feature_image_id = null, $post_id, $meta_key, $single ) {
    if ( $meta_key == '_thumbnail_id' ) {
         if(function_exists('qtranxf_getLanguage')) {
        if (qtranxf_getLanguage() == 'en' && kdmfi_has_featured_image( 'featured-image-en', $post_id )) {
            $feature_image_id = kdmfi_get_featured_image_id( 'featured-image-en', $post_id );
        }
    }
    }
  return $feature_image_id;
}
