Nice to hear ??

Did you experience the same behavior on the thumbnails?

The plugin is using the gd image library internally. You may experience a loss in quality due to the JPEG encoding. The library does not support much exif information, so if you add exif information that controls the brightness of the image, it may be removed.

Hi,

The main problem is that the plugin does not find the correct attachmentfile. This needs to be the original file name.

The main line is this regexp:
=^(.*/)((?<name>[^/]+?)(-(?<x>\d+)x(?<y>\d+))?(?<ext>.\w+))$=

Replace it with:
=^(.*/)((?<name>[^/]+?)(-(?<x>\d+)x(?<y>\d+)(@\dx)?)?(?<ext>.\w+))$=

You can test it here:

(use the full file path as pattern)

Does it work now?

No, I was not. I do not have any sites using the avada theme.

What are the full paths you want to exclude?

This one should work:

Hello,

You should only see this message once. Simply ignore it.

Which plugin is generating those images?

WordPress stores a list of thumbnails for images. Those images do not seem to be in that list the normal way. This is why the watermark plugin cannot find out what to do with them (watermark or not)

Hi,

My sites are running WordPress 4.5 for some time now, no compatibility issues.

Do you have more diagnostic information? Any error message or any plugin that might be conflicting?

I have not tested WordPress 4.5 yet. My sites are still waiting a bit with the update.

When I do (probrably next week), I’ll update the plugin.

Hi,

By setting a min height/width you force the plugin to increase the watermark size to at least 10%.

Try setting width min and height min to 1px. It will then be able to use your desired width/height everywhere.

Facebook is fetching the biggest image you have available and then scaling that back by itself.

This is why the watermark is so small.

Hi,

I’ll keep it in mind for the next version.

If you need a quick fix, search for shouldAddWatermark(). Return false whenever you do not want to watermark that image. You can access $this->attachment there. If you set debug to true, you see all the fields in there.

The result of this method is cached later, don’t worry about performance there.

Hi,

This plugin requires Apache+mod_rewrite in a basic setup.

If your image cache/CDN is holding old versions of the image, talk to that cache operator on how to flush the cache manually. This is only required after changing watermark preferences (e.g. enabling/disabling it, changing the position, …). The plugin cannot detect that and there are plenty of cache types. Facebook and your browser may also cache old versions of the image.

The plugin will respond with a 304 Not Modified correctly if you use the default apache setup and has it’s own cache to make things as fast as accessing a normal file.

You need to put the file path in a web browser. Like: https://<your-url>/phpinfo.php

Ho did you “delete” the plugin? Did you use the normal uninstall or simply delete the plugin file?
