    i try to output posts with an featured image assigned only. normally on code layer it would work like this:

    'meta_query' => array('key' => '_thumbnail_id')

    but when i try to reflect this in the editor, it does not work. It still shows posts without an image. What do i miss here?

    Hi there and sorry for my late response.

    This feels like a bug to me, leave it with me and I’ll see what I can figure out! I’ve created an issue here so please feel free to follow along.

    I have been testing this with the latest version of the plugin and I am able to generate a query that only shows posts with Thumbnails using the same settings you have in your screenshot.

    Do you have any posts set to sticky? I ran into that while testing and needed to set the Sticky Posts setting to exclude.

    Can you confirm that this isn’t the same issue you’re running into?

    I think I have it. After entering the Meta Key, be sure to hit return. It should like this – https://cloudup.com/c_b69zi1HAJ

    I think this is resolved so I am going to close it out. Please let me know if the issue persists!

    Hey Ryan, thanks for the reminder. I was some days off and now checked it once again. Indeed it works now by hitting enter after inserting a key. But to be honest this implies to me i could insert multiple strings here in this field which is not possible. so why do i need to hit enter here?! i think the user experience could be improved by using a “keyup” and some kind of delay listener event instead. But nevertheless very cool it basically works! thank you.

    to anyone else reading this here is the screenshot compared to my first one when you hit enter:
