Overwriting Post Thumbnails when no new source for thumbnail is given

  • Dear Joseph,

    I found another bug that the ingestion overwrites thumbnail image paths when theres no source for it in the source csv.

    Replicateable:

    1. Create a post with a thumbnail
    2. upload CSV with post_id in order to update post
    3. ingest given CSV (without any image links, nor configuration in the ingestion page to update thumbnail file)
    4. reload created post
    5. Earlier uploaded Thumbnail is now gone

    Can you please provide a quickfix for this bug? We’re using the Supra CSV PREMIUM plugin.

    Quickfix (for Premium Edition):

    @RemotePost.php in $params-Array (near 109)

    'post_date_dmt',
//'post_thumbail',
'comment_status',
...

    Images are now no longer overwritten, but are also not updateable anymore. Still, it works as a WORK AROUND. Theme author is needed to implement a fix for this in order to get Thumbnail Updating done correctly.

    Its furthermore not an viable option to import Images again and again, due to the duplicating in the the media database. Say you have a row with a post and its new thumbnail ressource you will get N images if you ingest it N times.
