Add Featured Image

I’m not sure if anyone else is having the same issue, but I was having issues where no featured image was uploaded. So I added this code to allow the youtube image to be uploaded via the url and added in the postmeta.

Open this: core/parse.php

Add this after line: 254 ( after the “WP_ayvpp_insert_post” function ):

$last = wp_get_recent_posts('1');

$url = "http://img.youtube.com/vi/".$i."/maxresdefault.jpg";
$post_id = $last['0']['ID'];

$desc = "Imported from Youtube";
$thumb_nail_id = $post_id + 1;

media_sideload_image($url, $post_id, $desc);
add_post_meta($post_id,'_thumbnail_id', $thumb_nail_id);

Also ‘Comment‘ out line: 369 ( function update_post_meta )

//update_post_meta($i,'_thumbnail_id',$tern_wp_youtube_array['_tern_wp_youtube_video']);
