Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Selective Thumbnail Regenerator

You might need to regenerate thumbnails if: * You've changed your theme and it uses different thumbnail sizes * You've modified thumbnail sizes in WordPress settings * You've installed a plugin that adds new thumbnail sizes * Your thumbnails are corrupted or missing

No. The plugin only regenerates thumbnail versions. Your original uploaded images are never touched.

When thumbnail dimensions change, old thumbnail files can remain on disk. The plugin compares old and newly saved metadata, then deletes only files that are no longer referenced. Existing files remain intact if generation or metadata saving fails.

The plugin detects the missing file, marks it as failed in the log, and moves on. The entire regeneration process never stops because of a single missing file.

The plugin automatically enters single-retry mode: it re-processes each image in the failed batch individually. The image causing the crash is identified, logged in the Failed Images report, and skipped so the rest complete successfully.

When Dry Run is enabled, the plugin checks that every matching source exists, is readable, and can be opened by a WordPress image editor. It writes no thumbnail changes and never marks a calendar month complete.

It is a 4×3 grid of month buttons beneath the date filter. A month turns green only after an unfiltered, all-size run finishes without failures or skips. Older records appear in amber because their scope was not recorded.

Yes. Click the "Cancel Process" button. The active server step completes safely, then the process stops and shows a partial summary.

The browser processing loop pauses. Reopen the plugin page within 24 hours and use "Resume Job" to continue from the last per-image checkpoint, or cancel the saved job. Completed work remains applied.

For each matching source image, Smart Regeneration compares active WordPress image sizes with saved metadata and files. It selects sizes whose file is missing, whose saved dimensions differ from the currently registered dimensions, or whose file is older than the source image. The preflight estimate is approximate and represents expected generated output, not guaranteed net disk growth.
