 * Hi guys,
 * Do any of you know how to update a post’s featured image in PHP?
 * In short: one of our clients has an edit function whereby you can edit the post’s
   custom fields etc but I cannot work out how to update the post’s featured image.
 * If anyone could shed any light on this it’d be much appreciated.
 * Cheers,
    james
