Hello robb11.
I checked to use PDF Image Generator with EDD. In my server environment, they work well. Try to set your uploaded PDF into the featured image. If you feel insecure to set pdf file directly, you can choose “Allow to set THUMBNAIL file itself as featured image” in the optional settings of PDFIG.
thanks.

Hey Mizuho,
Your plugin works great, but my problem is with the user interface with Front End Submissions in Easy Digital Downloads. When I select a .pdf file to be my featured image, it only shows an x instead of actually showing the uploaded .pdf image. It does end up creating an image from the .pdf, but it doesn’t show up like .jpg files do when uploaded. I have a screenshot if I can send it to you.
Thanks for making this plugin by the way! If I can just get this little bug worked out it will really help my site!
Application post type may be not allowed to set in Front End Submissions.
I think the following setting may help.
Check the “Allow to set THUMBNAIL file itself as featured image” box in the optional settings of PDF Image Generator, and then reselect an image file (not .pdf itself) as a featured image .
If it doesn’t work well, please send a screenshot from my contact form.

I can’t reproduce your problem because not have Front End Submissions.
I think I need to see the source of It. It will help me if you can send me zipped .php files related with the user interface of Front End Submissions.
After I watch them, I will consider whether it is possible.

Thank you! Can you explain where I would find the .php files? I’m a total non-coder, sorry. Also, I sent a screenshot via your contact form.
Thanks again for your help!

And is there any way your plugin could do the same for .doc .pages and similar file types?
Hi.
Converting .doc won’t be as easy. I think the best way is to convert .doc to a .pdf before uploading.
I searched in file of Easy Digital Downloads and Frontend Submissions. But I couldn’t find the relevant part of codes that corresponds to the screenshot. Could you tell me all plugins related to EDD that you are using.

Thanks for your help! It’s working now! Not sure why, but it is.
My only question now is how can we make your plugin generate an image for each page of a pdf instead of just the first page?
Thanks again for your help and awesome plugin.
Possibly in the future, yes.
I’ll mark this post resolved.
Thank you!!
