Awesome but just 1 little malfunction on portraits to paysage

  • Hello.. I found something not functioning as expected.
    Process :
    > I did set up an image size with cropping (with the plugin Easy image size) for my portfolio featured images : size paysage 650×350
    > With your plugin Image Regenerate & Select Crop, I set up a rule for portfolios to overwrite the main image with this custom size
    > Then when I went in your function panel into a portfolio page above the featured image clicked on “image details” to regenerate this image size and updated the featured main size on top of the screen
    > works perfect with a paysage original picture, for exemple 1024×600 > generate 650×350 = ok
    > BUT doesn’t make the right size for portrait original image 672×900 > generate 340×455 = not the expected portrait 650×350
    NOTE that in that case I have no Large image (NOT FOUND) which is set up to 1024×1024
    TRIED also to reupload the original file and same wrong size ending 340×455

    Any idea of what’s going wrong there? Anyway, I’m going to resize this one by hand but it would be perfect if this scenario was solved in the future.

    Also, you should think to add the functionalities to create custom images size so we wouldn’t have to add the plugin Easy image size and it makes sens.

    Another thing, I was looking for in the first place, was to be able to crop myself manually some images and I ended up adding CropRefine plugin (which is good but I’m affraid my client will try to resize under minimum size quality as there is no minimum ratio set up for the cropping)… and for my client it will be a bit complicate to understand were to do what with separate tools, so maybe it’s an improvement you will think to add in the future (maybe on a premium) for exemple a little crop icon beside the regenerate buttons. I would definilty pay for that.

    Many thanks for this great tool!
    It saves a lot of time and the rules are just fantastic! (maybe missing an “add rules” button if we need more rules ?)

    Have a nice day

    Found another bug… more annoying

    Sometimes the top button “Image Details & Options” doesn’t seem to work. The size for the image is not changing to the good image 650×350 and when it happens, that’s because it replaced the main large picture with the small size… and that’s really annoying for my portfolios which needed the large size pictures inside the gallery…

    sorry, my bad for this last one, I forgot to add the large image into the rules… maybe that’s why… but I thought the original image shouldn’t be touched

    After few hours working with the plugin made me a bit crazy.. I had to upload several time the original picture and sometimes to let 2 versions to keep one big for my slideshow and another one for my featured image… sometimes it’s reducing the size put keep telling it’s the full-width original size… I’m affraid on huge media library it would make people very mad… which is not the advantage of having multiple sizes. Also it was messing around with WPML when I erased in one language, media still appeared on the other langage.. I will give a closer look on the ftp later.

    The fact it’s not stable for image size rules made me think maybe you should simplify :
    > allowing to create the size on the fly is awesome
    > attributing the size on the fly is unstable, sometimes works perfect, sometimes for no reason it’s not
    SOLUTION >>> you better put a drop-down menu = choose the sizes in order to allow us to pick manually the good image we want for the featured image or elsewhere

    Hello,

    I just released a new version of the plugin that includes some new features you might be interested in, also the Define Custom Image Sizes.
    Give it a try and let me know if this is helpful.

    Happy holidays!
