Hi there –
This plugin has not been updated in a couple of years. Is it still supported? Even here in the repository, it states, “This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.”
Thanks for any info.
Hello, can I create a template and apply it directly to images previously uploaded from WordPress and not images from Spencil?
]]>I want so bad to like Stencil. But for me, it falls short in some areas:
1. User shouldn’t have to pay a premium to use any of the Google fonts.
2. The workflow using Stencil is not conducive to the WP user’s workflow. If I want to add an image to my post and create one in Stencil, why can’t I save it directly to the post without having to save it to the media gallery first?
3. Pictures are free these days… Unsplash, etc. Why do we have to pay a premium to use extra? It even counts against us to upload our own images it seems.
4. Why can’t users pull images to Stencil canvas via Wp Media?
Some other wp plugin alternatives.

Hi,
The plugin doesn’t work in WP 5.8. It doesn’t show up anywhere in the admin area. I tested it on a new clean site.
Please have a look.
Thank you very much.
]]>Hello,
I have tested Stencil with a picture that I saved in the Media folder. There are not errors but the picture is not placed. I work with the latest free Elementor version 3.0.5. With other pictures I don’t have problems.
Sorry, I don’t have on online URL. I’m work and test on local host environment.
Thanks in advance for any hints or help.
Hello,
I have installed and activated Stencil on 2 different WordPress websites and Stencil will not load. I’m testing only on my personal Windows IIS local host environment. So, I don’t have an online URL to share. I’m working on Windows 10 IIS with PHP 7.4.9.
I use the latest WordPress 5.5.1 version.
When the Stencil application will open, there is a big screen display with some error messages and a Reload button but this is not working. See here for the screencapture.
The error messages are:
Please reload Stencil
We had trouble accessing your cookies, which is needed for Stencil to work properly.
This can happen if you reset them or your computer runs out of memory. Reload should fix this.
“Reload”-button
Is there anyone who have got the same issue? And how can I resolve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
I absolutely love this plugin! I have been searching heaven and earth for a plugin that will allow my users to create graphics for their wiki fantasies! This is perfect! My only question is this:. How do I make it so that the stencil tab shows up for other users of the site, not just for me as admin! If you can help me with this I will gladly purchase an upgrade!
]]>Gooedday,

]]>Hello guys,
Congrats on this amazing plugin. I love it so much.
I just encountered this error while trying to add my post featured image via the Stencil Editor.

Hi, I just noticed that the Stencil plugin is not working for my administrators in my multisite install. As super admin I can use Stencil in every subsite. But the subsite admins can not. Let alone can other user roles. Can this be fixed?
]]>Hi,
After the latest WP update 5.2.3, changing the featured image using stencil no longer works.
If I click the stencil tab, nothing happens. If I close and click on replace featured image again, then the dialog box opens again and now stencil is loaded, but I can’t change back to the regular media library or upload file. Changing between media library tab and upload file tab has no problems. It’s just the stencil tab that is acting up.
This wouldn’t be a deal-breaker on its own, but now I can’t add the image to the library via the once-handy “Add to Media” button.
I am using this in the backend of the website. I have no Gutenberg add-ons installed.
What is strange, is that if I try to add an image in the content of the post, it works fine.
]]>I have noticed only recently that I get “getstencil.com refused to connect” when in WordPress. Presently I am in Vietnam and have not noticed before that there is CloudFlare protection on your site so I am also wondering if it this.
It could just be me as Vietnam does seem to have some issues with other sites.
I install Stencil for clients to use and I’m worried some may not be able to sign up to Stencil from their WordPress site. Of course, if they sign up and login on another tab the problem goes, but it’s another step for them.
]]>Need a reliable way to dequeue or option to turn off on front end to use Stencil.
]]>Why is stencil-admin.js loaded on the frontend?
There is a conflict with WP Rocket’s minification setting. I had to exclude this file in WP Rocket but it raises the bigger question of why the javascript file is even being loaded on the frontend of a site when not logged in.
]]>Hi I have just installed the plugin but there is no Stencil option in the add media library
]]>I see you have added support for elementor and beaver builder, could we add thrive architect page builder as another one to add for compatibility as I use this quite often.
thanks
Hello again.
Is the pixel width of images added to the media library restricted to 1800px?
This feels a bit cheeky as you have already added Page Builder support and allowed us to add an SEO image names, but I’m wondering if it could be nudged up to 1920px (the highest of Stencil’s default sizes) to avoid confusion … some who design for hi-res screens may even like 2560px.
BTW – I love that when you leave spaces when naming an image file it adds dashes – brilliant!
]]>I love Stencil and the idea behind this plugin, but for SEO I need to be able to change the image file names. Is that a possibility for the future?
I also run a script in my themes so that whatever the file name is it fills the title, alt tag and description with the same ( all cleaned up.
Thanks ??
]]>It would be very convenient to also be able to access Stencil from the ‘Add New’ context in the WordPress media library.
What do you think?
Congrats on this new plugin!
I got it working with Gutenberg, but when I load an image with the Beaver Builder plugin, the Stencil tab does not appear in that context.
Will it work with BB too?
With 2 million active installs Elementor is the biggest page builder for WordPress. Currently, it appears that the Stencil plugin does not support it.

You can see it only gives the option to view the media library and upload a file. While in the dashboard and editing a page I can see the Stencil option.

Is it likely that you will be adding support for Elementor in the future?
]]>Any plans to integrate this for use with page builders? I was really disappointed to see that it doesn’t work with page builders.
