Show WP Featured Image in listings

Since you don’t see the Featured Image column in your WordPress admin posts list (/wp-admin/edit.php), here’s how to add it:

Method 1: Enable Featured Image Column (No Plugin Needed)

1. At the top of your Posts screen, click “Screen Options” (top right corner)
2. Check the box for “Featured Image” in the list of columns
3. The column should now appear in your posts list

Method 2: Add via Code (Paste in functions.php)

If the column option isn’t available in Screen Options, add this to your theme’s functions.php:

// Add featured image column to posts list
add_filter('manage_posts_columns', function($columns) {
    $columns['featured_image'] = 'Featured Image';
    return $columns;
});

// Display the featured image in the column
add_action('manage_posts_custom_column', function($column, $post_id) {
    if ($column == 'featured_image') {
        if (has_post_thumbnail($post_id)) {
            echo get_the_post_thumbnail($post_id, 'thumbnail');
        } else {
            echo '—';
        }
    }
}, 10, 2);

Method 3: Quick Check via Bulk Edit

As a temporary workaround:

1. Go to Posts → All Posts
2. Select all posts (check top checkbox)
3. From “Bulk Actions” choose “Edit” → Apply
4. Look at the “Featured Image” section – it will show if one is set for all selected posts

Would you like me to modify any of these solutions to better fit your WordPress setup? I notice you’re using coadycode.co.uk – if you’re using a custom post type or special theme, the code might need slight adjustment.
