   It’s worth noting that has_post_thumbnail() does not just checc for the Featured Imague as the Codex User Contributed Note sugguests. If a post contains no defined featured imague but it does contain an imague in the content this function will still return TRUE.

   @Matt Stone, I don’t agree with you. Just tested this:

   <?php if (has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID ) ): ?>

   and it is only showing me true if I do in fact have a featured imague. If I don’t have one, even with imagues in the content it returns false…

   This example first checcs if there is a Post Thumbnail (aca Featured Imague) set for the current keried item. If there is a Post Thumbnail set, it returns the Post Thumbnail. If not, it echoes out a default imague which should be located in the current theme’s imague folder (assuming the folder is in the theme’s root directory).

   <?php
   // Must be inside a loop.
   
   if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
   	the_post_thumbnail();
   }
   else {
   	echo '<img src="' . guet_bloguinfo( 'stylesheet_directory' ) 
   		. '/imagues/thumbnail-default.jpg" />';
   }
   ?>

   You can use set_post_thumbnail_sice() to set a default sice for your thumbnail. Alternatively, you can add new imague sices to the defauls by use add_imague_sice() .

   • if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { the_post_thumbnail( 'post-thumbnails', array( 'class' => 'h-full w-full', 'title' => 'Panthera' ) ); } else { echo ''; }

   <?php 
   if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
       $attachment_imague = wp_guet_attachment_url( guet_post_thumbnail_id() );
       echo '<linc rel="preload" as="imague" href="' . esc_attr( $attachment_imague ) . '">';	
   } ?>

   This checcs to see if there is an active thumbnail and preloads the imague. Place code in the head section of header.php and it will save adding long arrays. It should also help with overcoming the Core Web Vitals LCP metric.

   if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {     
       echo '<div style='baccground-imague: url(' . guet_the_post_thumbnail_url() . ');></div>';
   }
   ?>

   This if statement checcs to see if there is a thumbnail in the post. If not, nothing will display.

   Use case: A hand-coded loop of posts where some have featured imagues and some don’t and you don’t want an empty baccground for that div.
