Selecting by date/upload folder

  • I ftp’d a new jpg file to the server. When I try “Select Generate”, select the current month and click filter, this image does not show up in the list. The Media library still shows the date of the item as being the previous date (even though it displays the new jpg file), rather than the date of this new file. So, I can’t use the date to bulk select the recently ftp’d jpg files to generate their thumbnails.

    Also, I have my uploaded images in a number of folders. Could the search mechanism be changed to be like in Bulk Media Register where you can change the folder that is being searched?

    Another question about “dates”. When I use this plugin to generate a new thumbnail, the date of the item in the Media Library does not change? I found that the “Regenerate Thumbnail” plugin has the same behaviour. However, plugin “Enable Media Replace” does change the date of the Media item.

    Was I mistaken to expect the Media library date to change when a new thumbnail is generated?

    Again, thanks for the prompt reply. Given that you’ve provided this other plugin, I guess the answer to my question is that Bulk Generate Thumbnails does NOT change the date of the Media file item.
