Anyone managed to get RevSlider Post Based to show a custom field image as background instead of the default featured image?
I have set up a few custom fields on a CPT and everything shows up ok. But, I need the Background image to be an image set in a custom field instead of the featured image. I had also tried it by selecting External Image as a source and adding {{meta:my_custom_img_url}} to the URL but it does not work :).
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks

I have an image that I would like to be used for thumbnails for the page, but I don't want that as a featured image when users come to the page. Does anyone know how to do this in wordpress?
Thank you.
You probably want to use ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) to add a new field for an image in posts (or you can create your own meta field just for the image). Then You can edit your theme to show whatever image, wherever you want.

If you just want to hide the featured image in every post, and only show it in blog page (or a page like that), you need to edit the post template.

I ended up solving this by using an extension called 'Conditionally display featured image on singular posts and pages'. This allowed me to toggle off the the big picture on the post.
Is there a way from which I can use any plugin and show Post or Page specific image gallery? The image gallery upload area should be displayed in Page when Creating or Editing the page below or above the text composer or should be at least in the page. And this gallery should not be hocked the default Image gallery of wordpress or at least should not show the images that's in default gallery.
Kindly let me know if anybody knows any plugin that does the above mentioned job.
You can do this simply by [gallery] shortcode. You can also set image ids like this: [gallery ids="729,732,731,720"]
Here is my answer: All my requirement got fulfilled by default "Media Library" tab. I just need to select the option "Uploaded to this page" from the dropdown. So, no need to use any plugin for the requirement I had.
For my wordpress site, I need some images arranged in a grid and when one is clicked a specific (different) image is displayed bigger. I thought that there maybe is a lightbox/gallery plugin, where one enters the link for the small and big picture, and I can just use the link to a different image instead of to the same one, but bigger. Does anyone know a plugin that works like that? Or any other way to make that work?
You can use "WP Gallery Custom Links" plugin to set different image link by using "custom URL" option.
Simply go to a post or page and create a new gallery. You will see the custom link meta fields for individual images in a gallery.

I have installed Sparking Theme. I tried to use Sparkling Polular Post Widget to display my popular posts in the side bar. By default it shows a thumbnail which always shows the featured image. I want to show any other image as thumbnail, say the first image found in the post as thumbnail. Beacuse if any post doesn't have the featured image, it shows just blank, I want to show first image of the post as thumbnail.
Is it possible to somehow achieve it? I am new to wordpress and may be I a missing something. Please help.
Thanks

you can try using this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoset-featured-image/ or this https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-add-thumbnail/ .the second one works out of the box .when you publish a post it checks for a featured image. If it does not find one, then it looks for the first image attached to the post and sets it as featured image
