## Beschrijving

PlugeThumb allows you to automatically set the featured image of your posts from
either:

 * A YouTube video URL (auto fetches thumbnail)
 * A video file uploaded/selected from the WordPress Media Library (sets poster/
   thumbnail if available)

No more manual screenshot and upload for youtube videos. This plugin saves you time
by attaching the right thumbnail whenever you add a video.
