Setting general feature image for posts

Posted in: Newspaper

Hello there! I hope you guys are doing well!

I have hidden the feature image on my blog posts because I would like all of them to have the same image on the single blog post page – is there a way to set that? Right now, it only shows an empty image placeholder with the title written on it, but I would like to set that to a particular image I want shown on all the posts.

Please let me know if there is a way to set a global image for singe blog posts!

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi Bader,

You can do that by installing a plugin Default featured image ( https://www.screencast.com/t/sIdGvOdBe ) , then from Settings > Media set your default featured image and save changes https://www.screencast.com/t/0lkELF7n

Is there no way we can have that same placeholder (https://pasteboard.co/HFuh1qg.png) that would have the image I have set as default in all my blog posts?

Hi,

Turn the feature image of and add this custom css in Newspaper> Theme panel > Custom code > Custom css and paste this code there:

.td-post-template-3 .td-post-header-holder {
background-image: url(“your image url”);

height: 500px;

background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

the url for image you will find in media ( if you don’t have the image add, please add it https://www.screencast.com/t/JO8aMiao5 ) click on image https://www.screencast.com/t/gfvuF9wQ63dH
You can change the height or add more css

Hope this will help you.
