 * I noticed that the featured image setting in my theme (Avada) is empty using 
   Z-URL Preview. So, when I click on the post, the image is displayed but to show
   an image in the blog post overview, it doesn’t use the one that Z-URL Preview
   refers to.
 * Is there a way to use the Z-URL Preview image automatically as the featured image?

 * That’s because the preview images are “just” links in the post content and not
   featured images hosted locally on your system, which is what themes look for.
 * If the preview is your only post content, there are plugins that will copy, download
   and attach images. But that would double the work in adding the post.
 * So I modified the theme I’m using to use the content image instead of featured
   images. Note that this is very much a “quick fix” that worked for me, it may 
   not be suitable for you if you have a mixture of posts with and without featured
   images.
