Can I insert the feature image inside the content, after any paragraph?

1 Views

I want to display the feature image inside a post text, perhaps after the third or fourth paragraph (or any) into the_content.

Searching the site I’ve found this code, by Amit:

add_filter('the_content', function($content)
{
   $url = wp_get_attachment_url( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID) );
   $img = '<img src="'.$url.'" alt="" title=""/>';
   $content = preg_replace('#(<p>.*?</p>)#','$1'.$img, $content, 1);
   return $content;
});

Works like a charm, but I can’t figure out how include the post_thumbnail after a defined paragraph (not only the second). Can anybody point me on the right direction?

Thanks in advance!!

  1. we can solve this problem by creating a shortcode so that you can insert the featured image where ever you want through the editor itself.Shortcode is a keyword that we created.Any number of custom shortcodes can be created and used either in template or in editor as like wordpress default shortcodes like [gallery].

    write a function in functions.php to retrieve featured image .

    function myTheme_featured_image($atts, $content){
    $atts = shortcode_atts( array(),$atts, 'featured');
    $post_id = get_the_ID();
     return "<div class='featured_wrapper_div'>".
        get_the_post_thumbnail( $post_id, 'thumbnail' ) 
           ."</div>";
}
add_shortcode('featured', 'myTheme_featured_image');

    ‘featured’ is our custom shortcode name.In your post/ page editor, give the shortcode name like the following where you want the image, after or before any paragraph / any line / anywhere..

    [featured][/featured]

    you can style the wrapper div ‘featured_wrapper_div’ through style.css so that the image fit as you like.
    Since we are adding this in our editor, it will display when you call the_content() in template

    Since we are adding this in editor, it will show if you call the_content() in tempalte.

    It will work..
