Watermark not working properly

Hi @snapper65

1) If you have a caching plugin installed, purge all site cache
2) Under Gallery > Other Options > Misc, clear image cache
3) Clear browser cache and check again.

If you do not see the watermark show up on thumbnails, you need to recreate them under Gallery > Manage Galleries > under ‘bulk actions’ select ‘create new thumbnails’ and run that tool.

Hi Gaby

I have cleared all cache and regenerated thumbnails

Now i have half the thumbnails with a watermark and half without

How can i fix this?

Thanks

Hi @snapper65

Do you have those thumbnails in separated galleries?
You might need to regenerate those thumbnails in each gallery.
Have you tried to test your site with another browser?

If you keep having issues we would like to take a look at your site.

Please, keep us posted.

Hi Gaby

No, its a single gallery containing 279 images

I have tested on three separate browsers and two separate computers, the result is the same

Half of the thumbnails have a watermark and half don’t

Watermarking on Nextgen Gallery has always been a bit hit and miss

This happens continually, the results are the same on two different WP installations

Should i try and rebuild thumbnails again?

Thanks

Hi @snapper65,

I think that @gabyimagely may have missed the part that from your question where you’ve mentioned that you can’t apply the watermark for the thumbnails only.

It looks like everything works as it should in your case. NextGen Gallery will actually apply the watermark for the lightbox images only.

Hi Mihai

I think you will find that Gaby is correct

Nextgen gallery applies watermark to Basic Thumbnail Gallery and Lightbox

I have now rebuilt the thumbnails once more and now the watermark appears on all thumbnails

I have been using nextgen since 2013 and it has always worked this way

I can send you a screenshot if you wish or try it for your self

Its a shame that it takes so long to apply a watermark to multiple images and some time it works well and other times it doesn’t

Hopefully this will be fixed

Thanks

It actually shouldn’t apply the watermark for the thumbnail. Please check this video tutorial: https://youtu.be/Jr-5WoNwajs?t=133

Hi Mihai

There has always been thumbnails with Nextgen watermark in Nextgen Back end “Manage Galleries” and in “Basic Thumbnail Gallery”

This has been this way on multiple sites, various servers and various word press installations

These where not displaying on all thumbnails, until i regenerated the thumbnails three time, after bulk adding of my watermark

Here are some screen shots for you

Hi @snapper65 –

Some users will rather see the watermark in their thumbnails, other ones not so much. Currently, it’s a little bit tricky, as I have already explained.

If possible, please send us a bug report here: https://www.imagely.com/report-bug, refer back to this forum thread and let them know Gaby referred you.

Note: Do not forget to add this forum link.

Thanks!
