Dynamic Featured Image (A WordPress Plugin)

2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress.
3. If you don't see new featured image box, click Screen Options in the upper right corner of your wordpress admin and make sure that the Featured Image 2 box is slected.

How it works?

1. After successfull plugin activation go to add or edit page of posts or pages and you will notice a box for second featured image.

2. Click Set featured image icon, select required image from the "Dynamic Featured Image Media Selector" popup and click Set Featured Image.
