I had a blog with over 2000 posts without the featured image set properly. This plugin and about 15 minutes and the problem is solved. THANK YOU!!!

This plugin simply works. I have a client that does not add feature images and it makes the site look bad, but this plugin solves the problem automatically.

Very simple to use, an other way to have cleaned posts. I try many other plugins but yours is the best actually.
