Smart Delete not reassigning featured image

    Tested the plugin with a couple of the duplicate featured images that have been uploaded to our site and Smart Delete is resulting in all but one image being deleted but isn’t then reassigning the image to the posts which have had media deleted.

    It also seems that if you do a smart delete on some but not all of a duplicate it doesn’t kip any of selected and also doesn’t reassign.

    What I tried:

    • Smart deleting 2 featured images of around 30 duplicates. This resulted in both being deleted (as I would expect) with neither being re-linked to a retained duplicate
    • Smart deleting 3 featured images of which they were all the duplicates of that type. This resulted in 2 deletes and 1 skip (as expected) but again no re-linking of featured images

    Am I missing something? Does the plugin work with custom post types (which is what these featured images were attached to)?

    Sorry for the delay!

    I can’t quite tell what the issue might be so I’m escalating this issue to our developers. I’ll let you know what they say.

    If you have any additional information to share, please feel free to email us at [email protected]. Either way, I’ll get back to you ASAP.

    Thanks,

    Given the way smart delete works, it shouldn’t make a difference whether you select every duplicate for deletion or just a handful.

    Please send along a screenshot of the duplicate list you’re seeing as well as the actual image files, if possible, to [email protected]. We’re wondering if maybe MDD isn’t considering these duplicates of each other and we’d like to investigate why.
