Hi there.

Thank you so much. I manage to find the correct script. I would like to share here.

I have added the below code in functions.php

//Show the first image associated with the post

function catch_that_image() {
  global $post, $posts;
  $first_img = '';
  $new_img_tag = "";

  ob_start();
  ob_end_clean();
  $output = preg_match_all('/<img.+src=[\'"]([^\'"]+)[\'"].*>/i', $post->post_content, $matches);
  $first_img = $matches [1] [0];

  if(empty($first_img)){ //Defines a default image with 0 width
  $new_img_tag = "<img src='/images/noimage.jpg' width='0px' class='alignright' />";
  }

  else{
	$new_img_tag = "<img src='" .  $first_img . "' width='600px' ' height='300px' class='alignright' />";
	}

  return $new_img_tag;
  }

// Ditto Posts Thumbnail Output

add_filter( 'mtphr_dnt_posts_thumb', 'custom_dnt_posts_thumb', 10, 3 );
function custom_dnt_posts_thumb( $image, $id, $meta_data ) {
	return catch_that_image();
}

Have a good day.

thank you. can i know which header i need to change to be able to change the ‘extract thumbnail’ so that it would capture the first image in my post?

Hi, i would like to inquire if ditty post is able to capture the first image in my post, instead of the featured image?
