Blocking Featured Image

I’m really late on this but it’s line 94 of im-social-aggregator.php that causes this issue

add_theme_support('post-thumbnails', array($this->post_type));

I removed it and it seems to be fix this problem but I’ll need to look into it more, a lot of this plugin needs quite an overhaul.

This should certainly be fixed by the plugin author, because the plugin is overriding the theme setting, but an alternative to modifying the plugin code is to override it again in your theme functions.php by setting a higher priority, eg. like this:

function my_social_media_aggregator_fix() {

	add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );

}
add_action( 'init', 'my_social_media_aggregator_fix', 99 );

I resolved this by adding a conditional to ensure the theme doesn’t already support this feature. I may do the theme override to avoid having to modify plugin code, but this is another alternative fix that may help someone.

if ( !current_theme_supports( 'post-thumbnails') ) {
    add_theme_support('post-thumbnails', array($this->post_type));
}

I’d love to see the plugin updated to address this — I’m very excited about the potential.
