Custom Field Map All Attachments not working

    I’m trying to add size dimensions as a custom field so it will appear as an MLA column. When I select “Map All Attachments” it gets about 30% into the mapping then quits with a bad response from the server error. It’s completing about 1225 with 2998 to go (I have lots of photos).

    Here’s what’s in the WordPress log… SELECT orig_size-image_size FROM wp_ewwwio_images LIMIT 27000, -715 made by do_action(‘wp_ajax_ewww_savings_loop’), call_user_func_array, ewww_image_optimizer_savings_loop

    I’ve run it several times and it breaks at the same place every time, so I don’t think that it’s just bad communication with my crummy server. As a test I’ve switched parameters so that it’s Quick Edit and not the MLA column, but it breaks at the same place.

    I ran the SELECT portion of the query above through the database and it worked fine. So I don’t know why it’s breaking.

    Any idea how I can fix this?

    I forgot that was a plugin. I’m using Enable Media Replace and it seems to work pretty well. Thanks again.

    Just as I thought – I have some experience with Enable Media Replace (EMR). It seems safe enough when used in the way you outlined.

    I just used it to replace one image with a completely different image. The replacement image had different dimensions, and EMR left the old intermediate size images (which had slightly different names) in the Media Library directory along with the new images. Harmless, but could be confusing.

    Let me know if you have any other issues with your media scaling/replacing adventures. Thanks for a good discussion.

    I’ll keep your comment in mind. I had noticed some strange behavior with EMR in the past and always try to check that it’s done what I think that it should have. If you have a better media replace plugin or process, please let me know.

    I the meantime, thank you for all your help.

    I have released MLA version 2.02, which includes the “pause/restart” and “skip/re-process” controls for the mapping functions.

    I am marking this topic resolved, but please update it if you have problems or questions regarding this feature in the new version.

    Thanks again for inspiring an enhancement of the plugin.
