Skip Regenerating not working

    I have ~40k images to process and I can get about 50% of the way before it crashes. When trying to start again it processes all images again, ignoring the skip existing correctly sized thumbnails that’s checked. Is there a way to start the process from a certain attachment ID so I can complete the process?

    I’ve tried wp media regenerate via WP_CLI and that doesn’t work either.

    I have a custom add_image_size function added via a plugin, so maybe it’s not being picked up?

    Hi @reholmes27,

    Can you tell me if your issue is somehow similar to this one we’re addressing? Just to understand if it’s a different issue altogether or it has something in common with this one.

    Thanks!

    Yes, it sounds similar, although I haven’t had an issue with the images all deleting aswell.

    Hey @reholmes27,

    Have you tried anyway to check the solution we offered in the other thread? We’d like to understand if they can help you on any capacity.

    As far as I can tell you haven’t offered solutions to the problem of not skipping thumbnails. You’ve suggested things to look at in terms of trying to overcome the issue with reaching a certain point and crashing but that’s not the problem that I’d like resolved.

    However, the main issue with reaching a certain point and stopping is that the site logs the user out after a certain amount of time and I get an error along the lines of user cookie invalid.

    Hi, I have the same issue. Anyhow I stopped / reloaded the regeneration by myself, and I was surprised it started again from the beginning (so no crashing at certain point). I am looking at FTP to upload/ folder and I see files modification times changed to current timestamp / date. So files that has already been regenerated an hour ago are freshly regenerated again … so that “skip regenerating … ” checkbox does exactly nothing.

    Hi there,

    Upon talking with our developers, we lean over to not recommending alternative plugins generally speaking.

    That said, since WP CLI is?www.ads-software.com?owned, we’d suggest it as an alternative while we look for possible solutions to these issues.

    Please note that WP CLI is a doable option to explore if your host has given them command line access:?https://developer.www.ads-software.com/cli/commands/media/regenerate/?

    ?? Just a quick note about a new plugin release: version 3.1.6 has just been released, including a fix that can help with this.

    The same change also fixes an issue that removed all thumbnails when selecting the option “remove unused thumbnail sizes”.

    Hope that helps!
