I have an issue whereby the default thumbnail is configured but not showing
Default thumbnail? As in the one set via Settings > WordPress Popular Posts > Tools > Thumbnails > Default thumbnail? Or are you talking about something else?
Oh, scratch that. It seems that there might be a bug with the Default thumbnail feature. Just changed some Thumbnail settings around, saved, and the thumbnail reverted back to WPP’s default which is odd.
Try setting that default thumbnail again and click on the Apply button to save changes. That should allow you to set your custom thumbnail. I’ll have a look at the code to find out why this is happening.
Hmm. Ok, for the time being and while I work on a fix you can also replace the no_thumb.jpg image in wp-content/plugins/wordpress-popular-posts/assets/images/ with your custom default thumbnail (make sure to name it as no_thumb.jpg so the plugin can find it).
Alternatively, if you prefer not having to change plugin files, you can also use the wpp_default_thumbnail_url filter hook to change the default thumbnail programmatically.
Just wanted to let you know that replacing the no_thumb file also does not work. I even disabled the WP Rocket cache to see if that was interfering but that also does not fix it.
