Apply only to one custom post type

It’s adding images to Ubermenu too, I’d like to limit it to one post type.

Hi,

Paste the code below in your functions.php. Change the name of the CUSTOM_POSTTYPE to the posttype you need. Let me know how it goes.

function dfi_posttype( $dfi_id ) {
		if ( is_singular( 'CUSTOM_POSTTYPE' ) || get_post_type() == 'CUSTOM_POSTTYPE' ) {
				return $dfi_id; // The featured image set in the media settings
		}
		return; // no featured image
}
add_filter('dfi_thumbnail_id', 'dfi_posttype' );

Hi there,
Thanks for the code. I’ve applied and have replaced the “CUSTOM_POSTTYPE” text with my custom post type name without success. It is still showing images on my menu. Can I limit it to only the one custom post type?

Thank you

My code:

//Default featured Image
function dfi_posttype( $dfi_id ) {
		if ( is_singular( 'jobs' ) || get_post_type() == 'jobs' ) {
				return $dfi_id; // The featured image set in the media settings
		}
		return; // no featured image
}
add_filter('dfi_thumbnail_id', 'dfi_posttype' );

Mhh, what menu are you using? Then I can compare the combination

Thanks, I’m using UberMenu from CodeCanyon

Hee,

I’ve updated the plugin. It has a beter way to filter this. Can you try this code:

function dfi_posttype_jobs ( $dfi_id, $post_id ) {
  $post = get_post($post_id);
  if ( 'jobs' === $post->post_type ) {
    return $dfi_id; // the image id
  }
  return null; // the original featured image id
}
add_filter( 'dfi_thumbnail_id', 'dfi_posttype_book', 10, 2 );

Hi Janw.oostendorp,

Have you thought of extending the plugin to cater for multiple custom post types? so if you had post types like “book” and “podcast” ..etc you could define a different default featured images for each.

I think that would be a great enhancement.

Hi Justin,

I thought of it but never got around it. Mostly because I want to keep is user-friendly as possible. I kinda like how simple it is.
If I can think of a way to keep is simple I’ll probably add id.
It’s not hard technical.

Hi Janw,

Its a great plugin and provides consistency for posts to never have a missing featured image. To have a checkbox for any post types available when a CPT supports ‘thumbnail’ would be great.

so your suggestion of an “id” if that’s for a CPT name-id then yes great (for CPTs that support ‘thumbnail’). If you were then to add the ability for one or more featured-image/CPT associations then that’s another way and wouldn’t take more space in the media settings than is needed.

But anyway its a thought and would add to your great work.

..Justin.

Jan, do you know if this code worked?

I only want to apply this plugin to one Custom Post Type and so the added functionality / this code in functions.php is important to me.

@colinsp
Did you try the code? It should work.

Jan,

I haven’t tried it out yet I was hoping that @myhero would report back whether it was working or not or that he had pm’d you with the result of his testing.

I will give it a try next week and report back.
