Featured Image with URL

Last updated: July 18, 2026

Featured Image with URL lets you set an external URL image as the Featured Image for posts, pages, and custom post types — including WooCommerce Products — without downloading the file to your Media Library.

What it does

Instead of uploading a file, you paste an image URL and the plugin displays it wherever your theme normally shows a Featured Image. It also extends this to WooCommerce product galleries and product variation images.

Where to find it

Once activated, open any post, page, or product editor and look for the “Featured Image with URL” panel in the sidebar.
