Thumbgen generated images are black

btw: we have a dedicated server with gdlib 2.1, debian 7, nginx, php5-fpm.

Same problem for me on WordPress 3.8

@esmi I though I was contributing the the discussion by mentioning the fact the plugin doesn’t work on WordPress 3.8. I was about to make my own post on the subject but surely people contributing to the same post about the same subject is preferable to many people posting the same error on a forum post that didn’t have any advice or help on in the first place?

I’m afraid that is not how these forums work. Please try reviewing the Forum Welcome.

I have same problem when I upgraded WP to 3.8.
To fix it i modify this line:

$openImage=substr($openImage,0,1) != “/”? $sitePath.$openImage:$openImage;

and I use:

$openImage=substr($openImage,0,5) != “/home”? $sitePath.$openImage:$openImage;

It’s work for me for now.

Yes that line is the problem. I removed it and it works now. For debugging, just remove all “@” in thumbGen.php and it will tell you the problem.

Friends,

Strangely, in my site the line appears like this:

$openImage=substr($openImage,0,1)==”/”?$sitePath.$openImage:$openImage;

The comparison is “==”, not “!=”.

Unfortunately, to change or comment this line didn’t cause any effect. My images continue in black. ??

Marco, did you try to remove all “@” from the code? It might then give you error messages that can help you find the problem.
