I saw a couple of old/closed threads related to this. But I’m wondering:

Any way to have Discourse show an image (the first image in the topics first post?) in the topics list?

This came up when a bunch of podcasters wanted to keep a list of all their own shows. So they wanted to see the podcast cover art. A big collage would be awesome, but just having thumbnails in a topics list, would be a good approximation.

At the moment the best way to do this is by using the [Topic List Previews (legacy)](https://meta.discourse.org/t/topic-list-previews/101646) plugin, which isn’t supported on our hosting unfortunately. We are looking at ways to allow themes to enable image previews, but we don’t have an ETA for that functionality yet.

Is this possible to use in the hosted Discourse communities?

It is, but only on an Enterprise plan I’m afraid!
