please make it easy for brands to set the placeholder image for listings without images. it should be as simple as selecting/uploading an image to be used. ---

Hello, In the meantime, maybe you could replace the default placeholder, just by swapping the image with your own (and keeping the same name) : ![image](https://community.hivepress.io/uploads/default/original/2X/8/8ec9d0b63fb4aa0c896120526ead690f071ce4fb.jpeg) Here, for instance, it is : `https://listinghive.hivepress.io/wp-content/plugins/hivepress/assets/images/placeholders/image-landscape.svg` ---

thanks i went to this exact section in the code and this links to a place where they create the image. it isn’t actually a stand alone image. ![Screenshot 2025-05-05 at 12.55.01 PM](https://community.hivepress.io/uploads/default/original/2X/c/c4dbea22fb5e21a17d64bba2209ec04cb0f3078d.jpeg) ---

Thank you for your reply. Do you know how I can easily switch out this “svg image” for a placeholder image without wrecking everything? I’d appreciate the help. TY ---

i didnt find this comment helpful due to not including specific instructions. a screenshot with a link makes no sense to me especially when i know the link goes directly to a file with svg gibberish in the code. if you have step by step specifics to share please do. ---
