Description
This is a little plugin which adds a featured image column to WordPress. It automatically adds a column to any post type which supports a featured image. The code is pulled almost directly from my plugin Display Featured Image for Genesis.

Have been using this plugin for years on nearly every site I’ve produced for clients. Simple and works perfectly!

Have just installed it and started using it. Works perfectly. Does what it says. I find it very useful. Thank you.
(One small negative: it does not work for custom post types if you also use the Admin Column plugin.)

It’s a simple plugin, which does what it says and solved the need I had.
However, as it is not configurable it is limited. For example, there are plugins that add a thumbnail to their CPTs and putting this one in comes out both thumbnails.
For this and other reasons I have created a plugin based on this one that allows you to choose in which CPT the image is shown, besides customizing, shape, size and other improvements.
It is Manage admin columns
