Can't get it to work on my site

Images inside existing posts and pages will not resize though. If you check the text version of the content, the url, width, and height are all specifically stated there. e.g.

<a href="myimage.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-1459" src="myimage-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>

Then what is different about this plugin in comparision with the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin? Is it not the point that previously added images to posts will rescale to the new size? In all existing posts?

I thought that was the use of regenerating thumbnail plugins, because if the images inside existing posts will not resize, what’s the point of creating new thumbnail versions?

The difference between this and Regenerate Thumbnails is that this does things automatically.

As far as I know, Regenerate Thumbnails doesn’t also modify the img tags explicitly placed in your content.

But for example, let’s say you have inserted a gallery shortcode. The image sizes there would change. Or perhaps you edited the featured image sizes found in your theme, those would change too.

The reason it doesn’t work in the case you mentioned is that the image url for that specific size is saved in your content. So if you remove and re-update your content’s image path, then it should then reflect the new size.

Thanks for explaining, but this would still mean editing each and every post and saving it again. Not an option for about 2800 posts ??

Someone should think of a better solution, if not the developers of WP.
