Create beautiful templates in a similar fashion as you would create an image with Adobe Photoshop.\nBuild your image using multiple layers. Move, resize, rearrange layers anywhere you like within the canvas.<\/p>\n\n
Use the grid and keyboard keys to make editing a breeze !\n* Hold Ctrl: snap to grid\n* Hold Alt: resize from center\n* Hold Shift: preserve aspect ratio \/ create at 1:1 ratio<\/p>\n\n
All keys can be used in combination. Ex: Alt + Shift: Resize from center while preserving layer aspect ratio<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you wish to have the post title in your image, you can use a Text layer set as {{title}}<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Browse from 3M+ HD images and integrate them directly in your designs for free, without attribution required.\nNo API key required.<\/p>\n\nSource: WordPress<\/a>\n\n Use dynamic images in your templates to automate even further your featured image generation.<\/p>\n\n Supported dynamic images :<\/p>\n\n High Definition Featured Images contain 4x more pixels to ensure crisp images on high-DPI displays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use thousands of free icons in your templates to enhance your designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Create visually attractive texts in your design thanks to the Google fonts collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Integrate vector graphics easily from either SVG files, or with a simple copy\/paste of any SVG code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Create conditional layers in one template that will render differently depending on the actual post content.<\/p>\n\n For example, if you write articles about pets, you could show a cat icon for the posts of category \u201ccats\u201d, and a dog icon for the posts of category \u201cdogs\u201d, and a paw icon for any other category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Smart Auto Featured Image leverages the power of WordPress Hooks.<\/p>\n\n It provides a wide variety of Actions and Filters that you can hook onto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to create stunning Featured Images effortlessly ?<\/p>\n\n Go Pro now<\/a> and start creating professional grade Featured Images !<\/p>\n\n Get Smart Auto Featured Image Pro now<\/a><\/p>\n\n https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3iRSoYepAFE<\/p>\n\n\n\n This plugin relies on 3rd party services to enable provided features. \ndriver.js is javascript library, licensed under the MIT license, used for the built-in tutorials of the editor (driverjs.com). \nwp-color-picker-alpha is a javascript module that enables transparency setting in the wp-color-picker, it is licensed under the GPLv2 license (github.com\/kallookoo\/wp-color-picker-alpha)\nThe freemius sdk is used for license management and for letting users upgrade to pro (freemius.com | terms: freemius.com\/terms | privacy policy: freemius.com\/privacy).\nhtml2canvas is a javascript library, licensed under the MIT license, used to save template thumbnails and generate images (html2canvas.hertzen.com).<\/p>\n\n\n This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.<\/p>\n\n e.g.<\/p>\n\n Go to the page \u201cPlugins > Add New\u201d on the WordPress control panel\nClick on the \u201cUpload Plugin\u201d button, the form to upload the archive will be opened.\nSelect the archive with the plugin and click \u201cInstall Now\u201d.\nClick on the \u201cActivate Plugin\u201d button when the installation is complete.<\/p>\n\n Upload the folder smart-auto-featured-image to your site's plugin folder, usually it is \/wp-content\/plugins\/.\nGo to the page \u201cPlugins > Add New\u201d on the WordPress control panel\nLook for \u201cSmart Auto Featured Image\u201d in the plugins list and click \u201cActivate\u201d.<\/p>\n\n Go to the Template manager page under the Menu \"Smart Auto Featured Image\", and create or edit a template:<\/p>\n\n\n A \"template\" is basically your future Featured Image, before it is processed by our engine.
