<h2>Description</h2>

<p>If no featured image has been selected for a post, page, or custom post type, this plugin will assign the first featured image found from its parent, grand-parent, great-grand-parent, etc.</p>

<p>The plugin makes no permanent changes - simply deactivate the plugin to disable the automatically inherited images. ;-)</p>

<h3>Coded for Performance</h3>

<p>This plugin uses the WordPress <code>wp_cache_get()</code> and <code>update_meta_cache()</code> functions for maximum performance and fully integrate with WordPress core functionality.</p>
