Tell us what you are trying to do? I have a Toolset View where I'm displaying PDFs from my media library and I can't get thumbnails to load of the front page of the PDF. I thought WordPress started creating thumbnails for PDFs now, could you help me with this?

What is the link to your site? hidden link

Attached are screenshots of the desired layout, the View settings, and the frontend as it currently looks.
Thank you for your help!
