 * What do you think about adding support for Visual Composer?
 * It would help since they have an interface that requires more clicks before you
   can even exit out their image options interface to set your featured image.
 * If the idea is worth it and even if you make it a paid version, let me know.

 * If Visual Compser uses a non-native WordPress interface for adding images then
   I’m not going to support it in this plugin. This is designed to extend the WordPress
   interface and not that of other software, so doing something like that just isn’t
   in the scope of this plugin.
 * Cheers,
    Hugh

 * Hi Hugh,
 * I’m not 100% sure about that, but it does use the same interface to select images
   form the media library. Here are just 2 screenshots of that image selecting process.

 * I see what you mean. I’ve never used Visual Composer, so didn’t quite know how
   it works. It looks like they have their own custom interface, but then they use
   the WordPress media modal on top of that. They do, however, create a custom modal
   so it wouldn’t be as easy to hook into inside a plugin as the core modal is, 
   but it would not be impossible.
 * That being said, I am very unlikely to add support for Visual Composer into this
   plugin because if I did that I would also have to do it for the other page builder
   plugins that have their own interfaces and that’s not a rabbit hole that I want
   to go down.
 * I might look into this in the future, but it is highly unlikely.

 * Hey, appreciate it Hugh!
 * Normally I would pitch to a Visual Composer developer, but the idea came from
   you so I wanted to shoot it to you first and see.
 * But I appreciate it, I can send the idea to some VC devs because it will be ideal
   to set featured images from the frontend editing interface, which seeing your
   plugin made me realize this has been overlooked in Visual Composer.
 * #Salute … again appreciate it. Thanks.
