Excellent. That certainly seems to give us back the thumbnail functionality. Thank you very much.

I’ve posted about this issue on the PodPress forum (at MightySeek.com) a few times in the past week. The moderator keeps saying the issue has been resolved. It’s certainly not resolved in my case — and I’m using the most current version of everything (PodPress 8.8 and WP 2.3.2). Actually the PodPress forum moderator offers a staging system where you can try it out. I did try it and had the same problem. Upload an image and there’s no thumbnail option if PodPress is activated. Deactivate PodPress and upload the same image and the thumbnail option is there.

People often suggest that if you’re having an issue with thumbnails, it may be because the GD library needs to be enabled or updated. First, however, I’d try temporarily deactivating PodPress and if that solves the image problem, at least you’ll know you that you don’t have to chase down non-existent issues with the GD library.

PodPress seems to interfere with thumbnail functionality. If PodPress is deactivated, image thumbnails and resizing work just as they’re supposed to.

For those who may be having similar issues with thumbnails, just try a quick check with other plugins (like PodPress) deactivated and see if that solves the problem. At least then you’ll know that you don’t have to chase down non-existent issues with the GD library.
