Hi, is it possible to disable certain thumbnail sizes from being generated in the first place instead of deleting them after? Thank you!

hello. for some reason, after the initial scan, when i bulk renerate thumbnails, no matter which options i select, the process is finishing at around 15-20%. no errors and i got green okay line. but only part of the thumbnails are being generated. it’s a strong dedicated server and i see no error in php log.

Hi there! Apologies for the delayed response. Can you please contact us via https://devowl.io/support, so we can check this for you? Regards, Matthew :-)

Hello, The usual recommendation for thumbnail re/generation is the free “Regenerate Thumbnails” by the late Alex Mills, but it kills my 2xCPU VPS up to the point I can’t finish regenerating my gallery at all. Apart of the nice other features your plugin offers, does it give any tools to tone down CPU usage? Thanks.

Hi there! Unfortunately, we cannot answer this question specifically. But with Real Thumbnail Generator you can skip a lot of work while regenerating e.g. skipping already created thumbnails or only regenerate a set of thumbnails. You can also configure the chunk size per request of your browser how many files should be regenerated. Regards, Matthew :-)

Hi, I have a problem with my old codecanyon account more than 1 year ago

But when I updated your last update today It said: License key entered not found. But it was always updated normally with a license key I bought from you

The latest key numbers 843a8774b570

Hi there! Can you please contact us via https://devowl.io/support ? Regards, Matthew :-)

Hi, I have a problem with my old codecanyon account for over 1 year that has already been closed

But when I updated its last update today, it said: License key entered not found. But it was always updated normally with a license key I bought from you

Your email I received today

Does your old codecanyon.net still exists?

Feel free to answer by email that we can find a solution for the issue!

Best regards,

Hi,

I’m going to buy the Pro version but I found the following bug:

Total space in the file system seems to count same image size(s) more than once.

E.g. if I set woocommerce_gallery_thumbnail size same to thumbnail size (150×150) it is counted twice, and same for old WC image size names (shop_thumbnail, …), they are counted too.

See here:

https://pasteboard.co/CNjF5JzuR28g.png

1.79+63.19+45.32+15.81+2.88+11.19 should be 140.18 KB instead of 275 KB.

The plugin should take into account only images existing on file system (so same sizes shouldn’t be counted more than once).

Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave! Just replied to your email. Regards, Matthew :-)

Pre sale question : The free version works fine, and generates small, medium and large thumbs (wordpress default sizes) for my several thousand PDF files. But i have other image sizes in my custom theme (add_image_size()), will the PRO version generate the thumbnails for my PDF for those sizes too ?

Hi there! Apologies for the delayed response. If you have already registered additional sizes for your PDFs and they are already not generated even for new uploaded files, they will not be regenerated by the PRO version. Here WordPress itself decides which sizes are created for files.

I am not quite sure what the plugin does, it goes 8%, 16%, 24%, then repeats the process over and over until I am bored enough just to stop the process.

Hi there! Can you please open a support ticket via https://devowl.io/support ? Regards, Matthew :-)

Hi!! A nice function to add to this plugin: we can choose what thumbnails wordpress will be able to generate auto, so we can block medium, large, for example. When we upload an image the wordpress will not generate this sizes. Like the “Stop Generating Unnecessary Thumbnails” plugin does!

Hi there!

To your feature request: Unfortunately, this is not implemented, but I have added it to our backlog.

Which texts do you refer to? Can you please send a screenshot?

Regards, Matthew :-)

I see that have 36 strings to translate only. Here the screenshot of some words that are not on the .po .mo file… everything from this panel are in english: http://arquivos.adrianomaia.com/6HvF22 everything inside every tab… i think that is not available to translate.

I think you are relating to the frontend translation strings. They are placed in real-thumbnail-generator/public/languages Regards, Matthew :-)

hi,

I’m sorry I’m having some trouble getting the plugin to work. When I click on analyze all attachments, I can see the status bar but nothing happens – it stays at 0 until it goes away but no images are displayed. I also can no longer see the images in my media library when your plugin is activated.

Am I missing something or is my theme just not compatible with your plugin?

Hi there! Thanks for your message. Can you please contact us via https://devowl.io/support so we can check this on your site? Regards, Matthew :-)

Hello,

I have a problem with this plugin : the thumbnails quality is not enough

I would like a better quality (more sharpen) Others thumbnails plugins offers a better quality.

Hi there! I just replied to your email :-)

This plugin is great and works exactly as described.

Would you consider making an option to only bulk regenerate the featured images of each post?

Hi codings,

Unfortunately, the desired feature is not implementable, because depending on the theme and page builder featured images are sometimes shown as such, but sometimes not. Sorry!

Best regards,

Jan

I do not mind paying the $19 for PRO but I need some verification as to why the images are not fitting into my theme containers as needed. Smush of course shows you which ones are not.

The Theme team indicated that I download the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin. That plugin has not been updated in months and has not been tested with the last WP update. The Times-News theme individual said that the theme would fit the images using the plugin.

I have used your free plugin and the images are still not fitting into the containers. It would take too much time to do this individually and I do not know-how.

I have searched online with every question I can think of to see how to do this. They said if the theme had been changed, the images might have issues. I have not changed the theme since I purchased the theme. It is a pro theme.

CAN YOU HELP ME PLEASE AND WOULD THE PRO PLUGIN FROM YOU RESOLVE THIS ISSUE OR NOT. Please be honest with me. I do not know how to make the images fit the containers. Yes, I can go into edit images and make the featured images 765×500…that does not resolve the issue. The images still do not fit the containers on the front page, category pages, etc.

Thank you in advance for you professional help, but I have run the initial process and the images do not fit anywhere in the containers.

Linda Todd

Just to add…I am having better luck trying to get these suited to the containers, and going forward, I will know exactly how to fix the images. Thanks

Hi there! Thanks for your message. Here is Matthew. Real Thumbnail Generator does not resolve your issue of unfitting images in your themes’ container. Real Thumbnail Generator “simply” does only regenerate your registered image sizes. I do not know exactly how to solve this issue, sorry. Regards, Matthew :-)

Can the plugin generate proportional shapes or are the thumbnails always square?

Real Thumbnail generator can generate both, depending on how you, your WordPress plugin or theme register the thumbnail sizes in WordPress.

Could this generate thumbnail for selfhosted video?

Hi there! Thanks for your message. Here is Matthew :) Unfortunately the plugin does not support generating thumbnails for videos as WordPress itself does not yet provide a way to generate and save thumbnails for videos. Regards, Matthew

Hello,

I have just purchased your premium plugin version, but I already have a look at your free plugin.

I have discovered an issue: if I go to the settings then click to come back to the Analyze tab, the plugin popup close, and I have to refresh the media admin page to open it again.

Can you please have a look ?

Hi MagicPhotoEvents,

I tried to replicate the mentioned issue on our side, but wasn’t able to do so.

Can you please open a support ticket at devowl.io/support, where you give us temporary access to your WordPress backend that we can check what went wrong in your installation?

Best regards,

Jan

Hello, not having much luck with this plugin, it seems no matter how many times I regenerate thumbnails the plugin tells me I still have thousands to regenerate, currently 53207 images to generate after regenerating at least 5 times. Also have noticed that Wordpress is also generating images in background which I assume will result in duplicates as that doesn’t use the custom path. Which also explains why I was asking previously if your plugin removes old images, because I am finding duplicates but your plugin isn’t.

Hi again!

Can you please contact us via https://devowl.io/support so we can check your site?

Regards, Matthew :-)

Ok,

Going to create a staging environment and will go from there. I’m trying to avoid anything that doesn’t work out of the box, don’t want to complicate things and edit site to work with a plugin I want plugins that work with my site.

Thank you though. I shall keep that in mind, I will be honest and I am sorry to say though right now I just want to remove it, I don’t have time for it, it was supposed to save me time and that’s not been the case.

I will let you know.

Best regards, Lee

All right, see you in the support!

Hi There, Wondering if i could organise a refund I accidentally purchased this plugin again?

Yes, we have given you a refund just now.

Hello, I purchased your pro version however I have noticed an issue. After stating “Thumbnail subfolder” i.e “Thumbnails” the thumbnails are moved to this location which seems fine but then in broken link checker plugin https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/broken-link-checker/ every single thumbnail is displayed as broken link. It seems link checker is not detecting the “Thumbnails” subfolder but using the parent folder location.

If I remove or unset the thumbnail subfolder to revert back to original location then regenerate thumbnails once again will the old thumbnails folder automatically remove old thumbnails from inside the subfolder?

Any advice would be great. Thank you

Hi there! Thanks for your message. Are the links broken if you visit the webpage / post? To your question: Yeah, if you change the subfolder and thumbnail filename it automatically deletes the old thumbnails, too. Regards, Matthew :-)

Dear devowl,

we have several questions about plugin Real Thumbnail Generator - will this plugin able to regenerate over 1 million images? - will we be able to turn of regeneration of sizes we do not need in BULK MODE? (ex. 2048×2048)

Hi! As I have already answered this within your chat conversation, but this can also be interesting for others: Yeah, it is able to regenerate such an amount of images, but it is recommend to take a backup of your site because Regenration itself can stress your server. And yeah, it is possible to only regenerate a list of selected thumbnail sizes. Regards, Matthew :-)
