How Do I Set Featured Image Programmatically in WordPress?

Featured images are a great way to add some personality and organization to your WordPress site. You can add them manually, or you can set up a programmatic feature to do it for you.

To add a featured image programmatically, you’ll first need to install the WP Image Optimizer plugin. Once that’s done, activate the plugin and go to the Settings page.

Under the Featured Images category, you’ll see a setting to add a featured image.

To add a featured image, you’ll first need to specify the image file location. WP Image Optimizer will then use that image to create the featured image for your site.

You can also specify a height and width for the image, and optionally crop it to fit.

Once you’ve specified all of the settings, click the Add Featured Image button. WP Image Optimizer will take care of the rest, creating the featured image for your site and uploading it to your server.

Overall, adding a featured image programmatically is a simple process. Just make sure you have the WP Image Optimizer plugin installed and activated, and specify the image file location and other settings.
