Use dynamic images in your templates to automate even further your featured image generation.
Supported dynamic images :
High Definition Featured Images contain 4x more pixels to ensure crisp images on high-DPI displays.
Use thousands of free icons in your templates to enhance your designs.
Create visually attractive texts in your design thanks to the Google fonts collection.
Integrate vector graphics easily from either SVG files, or with a simple copy/paste of any SVG code.
In addition to .JPG & .PNG formats, you can use the modern .WEBP image format which will keep your website fast by minimizing the image file size ! Select image quality between 1-100.
Create conditional layers in one template that will render differently depending on the actual post content.
For example, if you write articles about pets, you could show a cat icon for the posts of category “cats”, and a dog icon for the posts of category “dogs”, and a paw icon for any other category.
Smart Auto Featured Image leverages the power of WordPress Hooks.
It provides a wide variety of Actions and Filters that you can hook onto.
