最近、WPBeginnerの読者から、サイトの画像に関する問題について助けを求められました。すべてはユーザーが新しいテーマに切り替えたときに始まり、そのテーマは投稿の抜粋の次のサムネイルを表示しました。問題は、テーマを有効化した後にアップロードされた新しい画像はすべてきれいに表示されるのに、古いサムネイルはすべて醜く歪んで見えることでした。ユーザーは設定 ” メディアで画像サイズを調整しようとしましたが、問題は解決しませんでした。この投稿では、WordPressでサムネイルや新しい画像サイズを再生成する方法を紹介します。
初期設定では、WordPressに画像をアップロードすると、異なるサイズが作成され、アップロードフォルダーに保存されます。以前、WordPressで追加の画像サイズを作成する方法のチュートリアルを公開しました。多くのWordPressテーマはこの機能を利用して新しい画像サイズを定義していますが、問題はこれらの新しい画像サイズはテーマを有効化した後にアップロードした画像にのみ適用されるということです。
この問題を解決するには、以前にアップロードした画像すべてに新しいサイズを生成する必要があります。このプロセスは、しばしばサムネイルの再生成と呼ばれます。
動画チュートリアル
動画が気に入らなかったり、もっと説明が必要な場合は、このまま読み進めてください。
新しく定義した画像サイズで画像を生成するには、Regenerate Thumbnailsプラグインをインストールして有効化します。プラグインを有効化した後、ツール ” Regen.サムネイル。
サムネイル再生成ボタンを押すと、テーマまたは設定 ” メディアページで定義された新しい画像サイズの生成が開始されます。サイトの画像数によっては時間がかかる場合があります。
また、メディア ” ライブラリで選択した画像のサイズを再生成することもできます。
画像サイズを再生成しても、元のアップロードには影響しません。新しく定義されたサイズの画像のコピーが追加で作成されます。
また、以前に作成された画像サイズは削除されません。サイトのどこにもそのサイズを使用していないことが本当に〜してもよいですか？

Thank you for the article. I was dealing with a similar problem after switching from another system to WordPress. we did the export, but the resulting images did not look good after the import, unfortunately. This really helped and saved us the stress of redoing all the graphics. You are amazing, the whole team.

Is it possible to regenerate thumbnails natively for just one post? By natively – go to media gallery, click on image, click on button to regenerate its thumbnails. No plugins, no programmatical magic, no messing about with FTP or cPanel. Can this be done?
WPBeginner Comments
Currently, the only way to regenerate the thumbnails in WordPress is to use either code or a plugin.

The Regenerate Thumbnails plugin seems to have fallen out of maintenance. Is there another you could recommend?
WPBeginner Support
For the moment the plugin should still work, if you are concerned about the not tested with your version warning then we would recommend taking a look at our article below:

You can also use WP-CLI and the command: wp regenerate images
WPBeginner Support
If you’re comfortable with the command line interface you could use a command like that but not all beginners are comfortable using that or need to use it

Hello!
What happens If, in many of my posts I use the 1024 post thumbnail and later, change this -let’s say- to 910 width? Is it safe to make such kind of a change?
Thank you for your time
WPBeginner Support
Your theme should specify the image size it is using for the featured image and resize or use the version of the image that is the correct size normally.

I used the plugin and now the thumbnails look great but the pictures are blurry. I appreciate any suggestions to solve this issue.

If you use the plugin to regenerate thumbnails after resizing an image that was ALREADY in existing posts/pages, what’s the easiest way to update those existing pages/posts to use the new image size?

Hi,
what if I only have the image path yet the image is actually missing? I backed up the site and migrated it somewhere else, but the back up was maybe not complete or apparently there are no image files in some of the ‘upload’ folders.
Now when I open the media library I get many empty frames, with the path to the image. If I click on edit image I can’t of course do anything because there is nothing inside. Can I upload an image again in that path? Is there a plugin to do that?
Thank you for your help, if you have a solution

Hi
If you have FTP access to the site, you can navigate to the wp-content/uploads folder, and manually add the file in the correct path (eg: url.com/2017/12/image.jpg would be found in “wp-content/uploads/2017/12/image.jpg”
Once that’s done, you should be able to resize the images again using the tutorial above.

how can remove old regenerated image ….
Mike
I was using Avada which creates SEVEN sizes and have since changed to Beaver Builder.
The article says “You can delete the sizes if you are sure that you haven’t used those sizes anywhere on your website.” How do I delete those old sized images from Avada?

Hey There Experts,
I am having some issues with my thumbnails. I recently migrated my website from one host to another and after migrating the files, I can see that the thumbnails are not showing up as expected. My thumbnails are mapped to the post featured image and after migrating all the featured images are gone. Even I tried the plugin here described but it did not help. Could you please provide any solution to this?
Gagan
So if i change Image Size in Media Setting and than regerate thumbnail, than i have to modify maually almost alll post and pick up right size for image. Because Images are not showing up.
abdo
thank you so much, for this awesome blog, all solutions are here, thank you so much for you work and lessons.

For some reason, I’m seeing a duplicate regenerate thumbnails under the “bulk actions” area of my media library. One says “Regenerate thumbnails” and the other “Regenerate Thumbnails”. I deactivated and deleted the plugin but I still see it in the media settings area.
How do I permanently remove this plugin? I need to go back to factory media settings and this is preventing me from doing so.
Jack
The regenerate thumbnails plugin works great. I’m afraid I used it many times already in the last 10 years or so. The problems remains how to exchange the current used image size in older posts. I haven’t seen a plugin for this.
It must be possible to use a search and replace action that would search for *******160x???.jpg or *******???x160.jpg, search for an image with the same name (everything before the last 11 characters), and replace it with an image with the same name but uses 300 at least once somewhere in those last 11 characters.
The problem is, I can think of a way, but I haven’t got a clue how to do it in mysql ;).

Hello, I see that the support is very responsive and I am really happy to see that
May I know how I can set regenerate thumbnails in such a way that all my product thumbnails are squared? Initially, I manually cropped them one by one so that all images would be squared. Now, after performing regenerate thumbnails, the thumbnails will not be affected no matter how I crop them. my products are best viewed when they are squared. Having them in a rectangular form actually blocks out the sides in the thumbnail. Any help is much appreciated!
WPBeginner Support
The appearance and size of your thumbnails if often determined your WordPress theme. However, you can override this by adding new image sizes in WordPress and then using that size in your theme’s templates. After that you will have to run regenerate thumbnail plugin to resize all existing images.

jack
after regenerate the images, all do show in FTP under upload but never show in WP DASHBOARD MEDIA LIBRARY. anyone know what going wrong here?
it never update the post image as well
WPBeginner Support
Your Media Library will only show the original upload not all the resized copies of the image. You can select a size when you are adding an image to a post or page using Add media button.

broke every single one of my images. I only had a couple broken, now they all are broken.

Hi,
When I try to regenerate thumbnails it fails to do it.
WPBeginner Staff
Try switching to a default theme and then change these values if you succeed then there is something wrong with your current theme, you should contact theme author for support. If this does not help then try deactivating all plugin, and then change the values. If you succeed, then this means one of the plugins on your site is stopping you from changing those values.
Gursimran Singh Reehal
Found another solution, I’ve edited my themes functions.php and added new post_thumbnail image sizes and instead I’m calling those in my post widgets. Thanks for your reply.
Gursimran Singh Reehal
The thumbnail and medium image sizes in the media settings aren’t being saved. I get the ‘settings saved’ notification but the new values don’t appear in the fields below. Somehow the large size shows the change, but the other two keep showing the old values.
I’ve tried regenerating, but the problem is the changes aren’t saving properly. Any solutions where can I make the changes through ftp in which file?
WPBeginner Staff
Regenerate Thumbnails is one of those plugins that you can install if the need arise. There is no point of keeping it on your site since it does nothing on its own until you explicitly tell it to regenerate image sizes.
Marc
Is there any plugin to regenerate automatically? When one of our authors posts a featured image and then switches it for another one, the 2nd image always needs to be regenerated manually. It would be best if it were done automatically so the awkwardly sized image does not have to display on our site waiting to be regenerated by one of us manually.
Thanks!
tinagleisner
It feels like this plugin will regenerate all sizes if you want but noone is stating that it does more than thumbnails?
WPBeginner Staff
Yes it will regenerate all image sizes. If an image does exist in all defined sizes, then it will not regenerate another copy of that image.
tinagleisner
Thanks for confirming as I’m trying to sort out what plugins to install on my new site
WPBeginner Staff
Lisa the problem is not with WordPress but with the theme you have chosen. This theme is using a larger image size 640×427 while the flickr image you inserted in your posts were 300×200 px.
One possible workaround to that problem is to import external images in WordPress and then run Regenerate Thumbnails plugin.
Make sure that you first create a complete WordPress backup before trying this solution.
Lisa
I just made the switch from blogger to wordpress.org and the pictures inserted from Flickr are incredibly blurry.
Here are two examples:
I have four years worth of content…Does anyone know how to fix this? Many thanks!
WPBeginner Staff
You can actually do some basic editing like cropping, resizing, rotating, images in WordPress. However, this can only be done after an image is uploaded to the server.
Just to be extra clear on the topic, WordPress does store your image file in its original size. You can also create additional sizes if you need or remove sizes you don’t need.
WPBeginner Staff
you probably need to regenerate thumbnails.
Joshua Coller
I have a similar issue to Utsav. I am at the point of giving up on WordPress as Blogger seemed to handle photo re-sizing much better. Is there a tool that will add a step between upload and creating the sizes to adjust the section of the image you want to use for the feature? Something similar to when you box in your profile photo on facebook.
Utsav
hi,
when I upload any images as featured image only some part of the image appears as featured image. how to fix this problem?
Flávia Pimentel
Hi, there. I used the plugin and now I have 2 images as thumbnail. How do I delete old sizes? I only have the original image, after using the plugin it did not create a new media file.
Osama
Hi.. It will regenerate only thumnails (feature images, popular posts on sidebars etc) or it will regenerate all the images on the website?
WPBeginner Support
It will regenerate all the images you uploaded using media uploader in WordPress. Not the images in your themes, plugins, or images you uploaded manually.

I am using Solostream’s theme WP-Clear 3.2.1, which uses the latest version of the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin, however when I run the regenerate thumbnails plugin, I get about an 80% failure on regenerating.
I have even gone so far as to temporarily set the upload directory and files permissions to 777, and it still fails.
Any ideas? Should I just purchase another theme that will work.
Thanks
PS I can’t remember the exact error message as it was all in some code and about 200 characters long, but I have asked around in different forums. You guys are my last hope!
GABRIELA
YOU ARE AWESOMEEE!!!!
YOU SOLVE ALL MY PROBLEMSSS !!!
THANKS A LOT REALLY!

I had an issue with the thumbnail version of some of my images being broken in the media section. When I checked the folder it was referring, it was not there for some reason, but the original size version was still there. Using this plugin not only fixed my problem, but also saved me a lot of time from having to manually resize each image through photoshop.
For anyone using this plugin, since I only had about 6-7 broken thumbnail images in the media section, I just selected regenerate image on each one selectively instead of doing it to all images just to be on the safe side. Everything worked well.
Thanks.
