Thanks for raising this issue jumzle. I searched for the error and found this thread, so you saved me some time trying to figure out which plugin was causing that error.

I disabled CloudFlare and the fatal errors and error messages disappeared.

I have raised a ticket with CloudFlare as well and directed them to this thread. Hopefully they will resolve this quickly ??

OK. Will do ??

Thanks Cais. I have completed the bug report form.

Hi Cais.

I deactivated NextGen. Deleted the plugin. Reinstalled it. Activated it.

I then tried to generate new thumbnails and I got the same errors as before.

Is there a way to contact you privately with some login information so that you can quickly check the issue and see what is going wrong.

Thanks,
Kevin

Are you 100% sure of this?

When I try and delete the plugin, WordPress states:

You are about to remove the following plugin:

NextGEN Gallery by Photocrati by Photocrati Media (will also delete its data)
Are you sure you wish to delete these files and data?

This states that all data will be deleted.

I have been reluctant to delete the plugin and reinstall it as I assumed that NextGen would also remove all data.

Can you confirm that if I uninstall the plugin and reinstall it, all data will remain and all shortcodes etc will remain the same.

Hi Cais.

Yes I have. We deactivated all plugins and then reactivated NextGen. There is no conflicts with the theme either as we tested the issue with the default WordPress themes.

What could be causing this.

Thanks for such a quick and detailed reply Boris. It worked perfectly.

Many thanks. I’ll try and do a review of the plugin on my blog soon and spread the word about it. Keep up the good work ??

It doesn’t currently work with JetPack comments. I have the same problem.

Any luck with this Crushlabs?

It’s bizarre. The auto featured image seems to be working well on one of my websites but on the others it’s not. No images are attached on any site though.

That would be fantastic crushlabs. I’ve found that auto featured image isn’t working well at all now. Thumbnails aren’t being assigned to draft posts and many other posts are missing thumbnails too. It seems very erratic.I’ve tried a few other solutions today but none seem to work that well.

If auto post thumbnail works with video, I’d definitely switch over ??

Will do. I’m going to write an article about it on https://www.wpmods.com but I want to make sure I have everything resolved before doing so. Nothing seems to be jumping out at me as being wrong though!! ??

Thanks Paul. I’m looking at the image.php file in the admin includes folder and checking to see if I can work this out.

I’m deleting thousands of images from around 4 websites that use the plugin and then need to regenerate them. I don’t want to go through it again so I’d prefer to get posts attached before hand before regenerating everything.

Adding update_attached_file( $thumb_id, $new_file ); to the plugin file seems to be the best solution.

I’ve found that whilst the solution works and attaches images to posts, all auto generated images are still unattached. This doesn’t seem to be a problem with displaying images just now though perhaps will be in the future.

Any idea what needs to be changed to ensure new images are attacked to their corresponding post?
