Hi
We have around 20k+ post and few of them are missing featured image, So by default theme replace it with missing thumbnail image in blocks, I just wanted to use ours to show if thr is no thumbnail present, I can check the source and replace the image with my own but i don’t think that’s the smart way to do that
thanks
Hi,
The theme automatically creates thumbnails from the featured images set
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
These thumbnails will be displayed on block modules and other elements. If the post has not featured image a default placeholder will be displayed by the theme. These placeholder images are found here in the theme

If you want to replace them please use the same name, size and format for the images.
Thanks
SO
I have to replace it manually, No option to change those image from theme option?
Hi,
That would the only way of doing it. Those images are used from that theme folder, when there is not featured image set for posts. Replace them there and your custom image will be displayed. Remember to use same size, name and format for the replacement images.
Thanks
So
I replaced all the image but in child-theme, do I have to replace it to main theme bec it’s not working, how to override it to child-theme
thanks
Hi,
You will have to modify them in the actual theme files, through a child theme it will probably not work. The only files that can be customized with a child theme at the moment are mentioned in this guide

Modify them there and check the results.
Thanks

Hi,
That seems to be the modified placeholder image
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ITRWxXpF9
It should now be displayed when the post has no featured image set, instead of the default them no-thumb. Please correct me if I misunderstand.
Thanks
Yeah I can see but it’s not replacing on the site, Also Is there a way to check which loop.php is running for single post style? SO that I can edit the php file easily
Hi,
That image will be displayed on block or grid modules, when there is no featured image set and the placeholder is enabled in the theme panel

I cannot seem to find many posts with no thumbnail, on the website. Did find these, so it is working

The post template files are located in the main theme folder, each template has a corresponding single and loop-single file

Basically I wanted to show author image in single post template and I was using user photo plugin, It’s working on author page but not working on single post,
So, I need to know which loop file is using so that i can edit and check why it’s not showing
thanks
Hi,
Each post template has corresponding files, as shown above. You will have to modify the post template used. That can be done through a child theme as well, so you do not loose the customization after updating the theme

Please let us know if you need any further help.
Thanks

Hi,
Sorry for misunderstanding, I believe this is what you are looking for

That is where the avatar is called in the author box of the single post page.
Thanks
