Different fallbacks to detect the right thumbnail
Starting with version 5.2.1, you have more options in the thumbnail detection:
- Detect the thumbnail via label - This is the most flexible way, a must-have for content editors
- No fallback - If there is no image found with this label, no thumbnail will be shown.
- Use the first attached image as fallback
