This plugin doesn’t give any errors on PHP 7.2, but it will cause your site to be super slow. I found it with the Health Check plugin, causing the loopback check to fail.

Great plugin!

Just tested it with image 12000 x 8000 px @ 14.5 MB and it didn’t resize.
Is it something that can be tweaked with settings?

(I have changed RIBU_MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE to 31457280b)

Many thanks

With the plugin activated, when attempting to upload jpegs, they fail each time.

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

had problems with uploading images, probably because of php memory limit.

this plugin made image upload work just fine, other plugins like imsanity didn’t solve this problem.

but when i tried to upload a square cropped image, upload failed. Same image with different ratio, edited with same software and same settings, uploaded just fine.

I love this plugin, but it works only while editing a post or a page. If you’re uploading via Media, the image size remains the same.

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

I get this error after activating the Plugin:

Warning: session_start(): open(/tmp/sess_9fb069dd7bf0d5623e4809a32cac2d91, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in /wp-content/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/resize-images-before-upload.php on line 14

What can I do?

Hi!

1) Tell me pls, what about Multi Site capability?
2) And does it work with WP 4?

3) Discovered a bug – the plugin does not work in Media Library (WP 4 MU). Works only in posts/pages. Could you fix it pls?

P.S.- I would like it work not only with width/height of an img, but also/or with the weight.

Hi,
i upgraded to 3.9 and noticed that I couldn’t upload an image. I got a http error and my website got into a 500 error.

I removed this plugin and than I could upload images again.

The functionality worked great but this plugin doesn’t seem to work with 3.9. Hope this gets solved.

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

Images are upload in full size after 3.9 update.

Hello there!

I’m using the following “sanitize filename” code in my functions.php.
But, when “Resize images before upload” is active, the filter (sanitize) don’t work properly.

Any ideas?

add_filter('sanitize_file_name', 'sa_sanitize_special_chars', 10);

function sa_sanitize_special_chars ($filename) {
	$special_chars = array( '/á/', '/é/', '/í/', '/ó/', '/ú/', '/ü/', '/?/', '/á/', '/é/', '/í/', '/ó/', '/ú/', '/ü/', '/?/', '/o/', '/a/', '/ /', '/à/', '/à/', '/?/', '/?/', '/a/', '/ê/', '/?/', '/?/', '/?/', '/?/', '/ê/', '/?/', '/?/', '/?/', '/?/', '/?/', '/?/', '/?/', '/!/', '/%/', '/@/', '/?/', '/=/' );
	$sanitized_chars = array( 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u', 'u', 'n', 'A', 'E', 'I', 'O', 'U', 'U', 'N', 'o', 'a', '-', 'a', 'A', 'c', 'C', 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u', 'A', 'E', 'I', 'O', 'O', 'a', 'o', 'A', 'O', '-', '-', '-', '-', '-' );
	$friendly_filename = preg_replace($special_chars, $sanitized_chars, $filename);
	return $friendly_filename;
}

Hi,

if I upload a picture at the media popup, if I edit an article, I get an error, that this file is empty.
Upload only works within the media tab, but not at the media popup.

Any tipps for solution?

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

I really really need this to work and have only just found it. However it worked once and ever since it still uploads the original file. Have tried deactivating and reactivating and reinstalling it but will keep uploading the original now. Has anyone else reported this and could you look at our setup to see why it’s happening?

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

Does this plugin strip EXIF data from the image? The EXIF data contains so much valuable info I need. If not do you do custom dev?

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

If I use a smaller image than the set width and height, will the plugin expamd the dimensions to those settings?
THank-you

Hello,

I am using WP 3.6.1 and installed latest vesion of this plugin. The plugin works fine as I tried. But unfortunately I cannot see tick box (check box) for temporarly turn of the feature like on screenshot in the media uploader ??
Is that feature missing due to some configuration issue?
In my WP I see only following in the Media uploader: “Images will be resized to the large image dimensions, as specified in your media settings” and before that no tick box or other text.

kind regards,
luckyrings

Hi there,

I’d love to test your plugin but it won’t activate on my install.

I deactivated all my plugins, even switched back to standard 2012 Theme. Doesn’t make any difference. I get the error below.

Thanks…

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 2944 is not allowed to access /tmp owned by uid 0 in /home/motherbo/public_html/_new2/wp-content/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/resize-images-before-upload.php on line 14

I’m running the latest version of WP and for some reason it doesn’t work using the upload tool via Galleries. Did it broke with the latest one?

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

I would like to encourage others to use this plugin, but editing their config.php file may be too risky and technical. It would be nice if RIBU could have an option in its own settings panel, or else under the Media settings, to allow a custom resize target.

This is useful for when someone has “large” set to their content width, but may want a larger image to still be kept online for colorbox or zooms.

For example, one may prefer 720p-sized movie screenshots when someone clicks on the image, but they want the image in their post to display at “large” and only 640 × 360.

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

I’ve discovered that RIBU doesn’t allow WP Smush.it to process the images through Yahoo!’s Smush.it engine.

When I have both plugins activated and upload an image, RIBU does resize it, but the image (and it’s smaller versions) remain unprocessed by Smush.it, which is suppose to be an automatic process on upload.

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

I have added define( 'RIBU_RESIZE_WIDTH', 1024 ); to my wp-config.php file, but it still takes the size from my large image in the media settings screen, and not the 1024px widh.

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

Hi
I love your plugin
However I’m wondering if there’s a way to disable resizing image before uploads (or at least customizing separately) for images used for backgrounds?

I have a global setting for 1024×1024 which works fine for blog posts, however is too small for a background

This is for a multisite install

Cheers

Hello.

The resize before upload function is only working when i upload going on “Media”-> “add new”. When i create or edit a post and attack an image to it, the image is uploaded, but is not resized before upload.

Thanks.

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

Hi, just for my understanding…

Is this the same what scripts like Timthumb and Aqua resizer are doing?
So are those scripts also rezising the image before save it onto server?

Kind regards,

Willem

Sorry to say not working. Actually it works, but sometimes it doesn’t.

I’ve done several tests:

If when editing posts, click “Add Media” > “Upload Files” > “Select Files” then it works. The files really resized.

But if click menu > “Media” > “Add New” then it does not work.

I tested on online multisite WordPress 3.5.1 + Resize images before upload version 1.3 using Opera 12.14 (Linux).

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/resize-images-before-upload/

I am having an issue with this plugin and so I had to disable it in order to keep my server running (which runs WP 3.5.1 on nginx and php-fpm on debian squeeze)…

Several of my users reported that they couldn’t upload a pdf after I installed the plugin. I tested on my end (using Chromium) and it worked fine.

I then tested on their end using Firefox 10 ESR and it would get 20% and then hang during the upload and would never finish.

Then I tried upgrading Firefox to 17 ESR and I upgraded adobe flash player to 11.6 as well which did not fix the problem. Then I downloaded Google Chrome and the pdf upload finished successfully (so it appears to be working in chrome and chromium)…

Then all of the sudden my server went down because it ran out of memory which has literally never happened before. I rebooted the server and thought I would try to upload the pdf using firefox and then watch the memory usage. After clicking upload in firefox as I watched it sit at %20 I also watched as my memory usage counted up from 500 to 700 mb in a matter of seconds… Then I restarted the php-fpm service and memory usage returned to normal.

Once I saw that I decided I would disable the ‘Resize images before upload’ plugin and now pdf uploads work on firefox as well and no more memory leaks.
