Well, you could edit the event_list_display.php file, approx line 109, and just below the line where it says //Featured image, add the following
if ( !isset($event_meta[‘event_thumbnail_url’]) ) { $event_meta[‘event_thumbnail_url’] = ‘http://www.YOURSITE.dev/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/an_image.jpg’; }
The URL should point to the location of the default image you want to use. I would suggest that the image is made at 300×300 pixels or whatever you have set your featured image size to as the code cannot resize the image.
You would also need to do a similar thing in the registration_page_display.php file in order to have the default image show there as well.

i couldent get that to work
i currently have
<code>
//Featured image
echo apply_filters('filter_hook_espresso_display_featured_image', $event_id, !empty($event_meta['event_thumbnail_url']) ? $event_meta['event_thumbnail_url'] : '');
if ( !isset($event_meta['event_thumbnail_url']) ) { $event_meta['event_thumbnail_url'] = "http://www.blue-carrots.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/course-box.png"; }
</code>

Wrong way around, it should be
//Featured image
if ( !isset($event_meta['event_thumbnail_url']) ) { $event_meta['event_thumbnail_url'] = "http://www.blue-carrots.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/course-box.png"; }
echo apply_filters('filter_hook_espresso_display_featured_image', $event_id, !empty($event_meta['event_thumbnail_url']) ? $event_meta['event_thumbnail_url'] : '');

fixed it
//Featured image
if ( !isset($event_meta['event_thumbnail_url']) ) {
$event_meta['event_thumbnail_url'] = '/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/course-box.png';
}
echo apply_filters(
'filter_hook_espresso_display_featured_image',
$event_id,
!empty($event_meta['event_thumbnail_url']) ? $event_meta['event_thumbnail_url'] : ''
);

Thank you for sharing your solution, I cleaned up the formatting from the code highlighter a little so its now easier to read in your post reply.
I’ll marks this thread resolved, if you have any further issues please feel free to open another thread.
