# Fallback image for [post_thumbnail]

 * Hello, great plugin!
 * Could it be possible to implement a way of assigning a fallback image to the 
   shortcode [post_thumbnail] in case the post doesn’t have one?
 * There is such a feature but for [post_image] and the fallback is for the featured
   image itself so it won’t help in my case.
 * And I’d like also to suggest the ability to run shortcodes not from W4PL within
   the template. That would make it so powerful… 😉
 * Thank you very much anyway!!!

 * Maybe even better, the ability to fallback to first post image if no featured
   image!
 * Many times one would want THE featured image to be visible -if there’s any- and
   then have the post content’s image as fallback…
 * Same as the post_image fallback but the other way around 😉
