2.5 Image Thumbails Not Working

Anyone??

1. 20 minutes is a bit short to be bumping posts. People here are volunteers, they have other things to do too. Quick response is not to be expected.

2. I had this problem with some images. I think there’s some kind of issue there that I have not found yet. Try opening the file in a photo editor and resaving it. This worked for me on one file (using windows paintbrush). Not sure about this yet.

I’ve got muliple wp installs and it works on all but the one being hosted by Godaddy. Dont know if that matters or not.

Has this issue been added to trac previously?

Nobody’s quite figured out the issue, so no, it’s not added to the tracker yet.

Near as I can figure, if the function has any problems loading the image, it fails to create the thumbnail. This is right and proper behavior, actually, because it can fail for a number of reasons. Out of memory (image is too large in megapixels), GD library does not like grayscale images, certain phone cameras have faulty EXIF data that breaks GD, etc.

But every once in a while it fails for some reason I can’t figure out or reproduce. Not yet anyway.

I do know that the images you send to it need to be full 24 bit color or higher. Grayscale and 256 color indexed images don’t work so well. But this is an underlying PHP/GD thing, nothing can be done to solve it.

I host on GoDaddy as well, and it does work there. Near as I can tell it’s the images themselves in most cases.

It seems to be a problem with Podpress. As soon as I deactivated Podpress, everything worked fine.

I can concur, there is a conflict with PodPress (8.8 for me).

I had two tabs open: one the post I’m currently drafting, the other my plugins page. I deactivated PodPress, uploaded an image and selected ‘thumbnail’, it dropped in the thumbnail fine. I reactivated PodPress and went to insert the same image, this time thumbnail DID NOT WORK. It inserted the full-size image.

There is something between PodPress and Flexible Upload where PodPress stops the uploader from inserting the correct ‘thumbnail’ code.

very confusing.

I have this problem as well without any solution, but an extra problem tp add.

1. Thumbnail and medium are not working, and we are using podpress.
2. Also, when I try to uploads a 15.2MB video, I get an error message saying that I cannot go over the 20MB max and it will not upload.

Any help would be much appreciated.

theicast and nicknormal: Does deactivating podpress work as a workaround? In other words, if I deactivate it, add my photos, then reactivate will not effect my just added photos?

Thanks in advance.

Finaly i found my problem, had to deactivate the podpress too :s

Dev9393 I found a solution to Podpress conflicting with my setup (WP 2.6/Podpress 8.8/PHP5):

https://www.mightyseek.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1400

the 5th entry has a one-line of code to be changed, which should come packaged with Podpress 8.9 when that gets released in the next week or two.

minor bug causing big problems!

nicknormal:

could you post your solution here? mightyseek’s forum is broken and your link to the solution doesn’t work anymore.

Thanks!
