Mass regeneration of thumbnails
A client asked “why are the thumbnails in Textpattern all portrait when the images are mixed proportions?”.
I explained how Textpattern remembers the last thumbnail size settings, and the issue is solved for future image uploads…
How can I rebuild/fix around 1000 old thumbnails without going through each image manually?
smd_thumbnails should do the trick, but I don’t want to use another plugin when its only task would be to replicate Textpattern functionality.

It looks like there is no core way, but that’s what plugins are made for. But we could probably add it to image multi-edit widget in 4.9.

Thanks; smd_thumbnails it is.

That’s a lot of processing juice, even on a page with ‘only’ 96 images selected! I had frequent script timeouts in smd_thumbnail when I implemented batch thumbnail regen. which is why I had to go the Ajax route. It’s a messy implementation though and needs tidying.
The smd plugin menagerie — for when you need one more gribble of power from Textpattern. Bleeding-edge code available on GitHub.
