    I want the image gallery cover to be the same all the time. Now it changes to the first image uploaded. How can I avoid that?

    Hi Jaume,
    Can you please post a screenshot? Do you mean the Gallery cover image?

    Yes, the gallery cover image. How can I upload an image here?

    Hi Jaume,
    Please use any 3rd party service like imgur etc.

    What/Where is the function that creates the new gallery cover image on image upload to block it and keep the original gallery cover image used on gallery creation, please? How do I stop it from changing the image?

    Hi Jaume,
    At the moment I haven’t provided a hook to stop it. You can see the actual implementation here

    https://github.com/buddydev/mediapress/blob/master/core/gallery/mpp-gallery-cover-templates.php#L32

    When a cover image is fetched for the gallery and if It does not exist, we check if the gallery is of type photo and then set the first image as the cover.

    I am adding a hook for future today, for now, You will need to remove that chunk of code.

    Hope that helps.

    For future, I have added filter ‘mpp_gallery_auto_update_cover’. It can be easily disabled like this

    
    add_filter('mpp_gallery_auto_update_cover', '__return_false' );
    
    

    Regards
    Brajesh

    I have updated the title of the topic to reflect the intention correctly.

    Great. Thanks. I’ll add the filter to my functions file for future releases and tweak the code by now! 😉
