Instalación
- Activar el plugin
- Go to Settings > Magic Post Thumbnail
- Configure your settings, which post type you want to enable it and the image bank.
- Go into a post or create one, choose “Plugin enabled for this post” on the sidebar. Update/Create the post and your thumbnail is generated as featured image !
- You can also mass generate thumbnails for posts. Go into the list of your posts, choose posts you want to get thumbnails and into “Bulk Actions” choose “Generate Magic Post thumbnail”
If you want to use the Google Image API method : From now on to use the Google Images API, it’s required to provide your own Google Search engine ID and API Key. Follow these steps :
- Go to the Google API Console > Credentials > Create credentials > API key, copy your new key into the plugin preferences ( Google API Key field ). Then go to Library > Custom Search API > Enable.
- Go to Custom Search page. Create a new search engine. Then edit the search engine and get the search engine ID. Copy/paste it into the plugin preferences ( Custom Search Engine ID field ).
- Enjoy !
The “How to do” for APIs activations is available here.

excellent
Brilliant,THanks!
Perfect!
The Plugin works for me. I hope for optimice in feature 🙂
Brilliant!
The plugin is amazing!! Helps save lots of time.
Google images API works great and scraping too!
I've tried Flickr's api and that worked without any issues
Even Pixabay did its job!
if someone wants to use all the sources then It would be cool to have an option like that but no complaints!!
Amazing Time Saver – Google API Needs Work
What good fortune finding this plugin. Pulling in RSS feeds as posts, this plugin solves the missing featured image problem.
Of the various import methods, Google Images scrape is the most consistent, as title keywords won't often turn up hits at Pixabay or Flickr, especially if your trying to respect copyright 🙂
Google API method was a dead end for me. Sure, I understand the Google Dev console and have many many projects and associated APIs. But creating a Google Custom Search Engine, then getting an API too; which api? Any. Will a YouTube, Google Cloud, Google Maps API work? They did not in my tests. The author needs to ferret out and better explain how a user is supposed to meet those criterias.
works great!
A great free plugin! Quickly and reliably fetches images at post update & publish. I found it's possible to get good relevant results with careful domain selection within your google custom search engine, plus selection of larger image size. Definitely worth the time to tweak to get the best results. Thank you!
Not working for me, but developer is fast to help and determined to fix
Had high hopes for this plugin based on the reviews - and to the extent to which is purportedly would suit my needs (setting thumbnails for old WP posts that did not currently have them).
I initially tried to use it with pixabay and configured it with my username and API code. Went to posts and selected several. Clicked on bulk actions dropdown and chose Magic Post Thumbnail and clicked apply. After it was finished nothing had changed.
I tried this repeatedly. When it continued to fail I thought perhaps the problem was with Pixabay, so I switched the plugin settings to fetch images from Flickr instead.
Same exact problem.
The developer was incredibly fast to respond to my problems, so I am really hoping we will get it working (I will update my star rating at that point).
