Re: Automatic thumbnails for Textpattern
Right click a thumbnail that purports to be automatic (i.e. has /thumb/w800/… in it) and open in a new tab. If the process is failing you should see an error message in the browser.

Re: Automatic thumbnails for Textpattern
I think I’ve identified it as a problem in the default nginx vhost that I don’t quite understand yet.
It has a section as follows:
location ~* ^.+\.(css|js|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|gz|svg|svgz|ttf|otf|woff|woff2|eot|mp4|ogg|ogv|webm|webp|zip|swf|map|mjs)$ {
add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*";
add_header alt-svc 'h3=":443"; ma=86400';
expires max;
access_log off;
}Removing jpg|jpeg from that list allows the images to appear. I need to learn what that means and then see what I should correct or exclude from that. But that’s a problem for tomorrow.
EDIT: Additional observations after further investigation:
Normal images seem to be handled just fine, so it looks like just the initial redirect to thumbnail creation situation that occurs when a token is passed isn’t being handled. To test that, I temporarily removed the image extensions from that list allows txp to create the thumbs, then restored the original nginx directive including the image extensions. The thumbnails created in the /images/thumb/…directories now work, just the new creation of thumbs doesn’t.
@gaekward or anyone else? Is there a way of either passing through image requests that result in a 404 or 301 to the thumbnail creation routine, and / or is there a way of excluding location regexs that contain a ?token= url parameter from this directive?

Re: Automatic thumbnails for Textpattern
none of these two options output the correct size image:
I have then in a TXP Form:
The thumbnail sizes on the Images panel is at 324×200 , but the image output is large … but if I right click to show image in a new window it is the proper size.
This also fails to render a small 324.200 image:
<img src=”../images/16t.png” width=“324” height=“200” alt=“nav” class=“portfolio__nav__img”>
but if I enter this html
<a href="https://example.ca/portfolio/bikes_wheels" class="portfolio__nav__item grid__item one-half medium--one-half wide--one-third is-active">
<img src="https://example.ca/assets/portfolio/nav-bici.png" width="324" height="200" alt="nav-solutions" class="portfolio__nav__img">
<h4 class="portfolio__nav__title">BikeHistory</h4>
<div class="portfolio__nav__role">Website Design</div>
</a><!-- 1 -->the image is output at the right size of 324×200
