Regenerate WordPress Thumbnails with Media Hosted on S3

Question

I have a WordPress site that uses the WPRO (WordPress Read Only) plugin to host all media on Amazon S3. I resized the thumbnails and images in my custom theme, and uploading new images to the media library uses the new sizes. However, when I try to restore all the thumbnails using Regenerate Thumbnails, this does not work, often complaining that the original could not be found.

How can I make the regenerative thumbnail plugin use the original S3 image to recreate the thumbnails for existing images?

Answer 1

There is a plugin claiming that it can "force regeneration of a thumbnail", I remember how it worked a year ago, and it worked for my business at that time.

But today I personally never go this way again for reasons of efficiency, as the topic can change a lot, and extreme cases may appear depending on the needs of clients / corporations. To get around any "Regeneration", you can install.

The essence of the plugin is that you determine your size, but only generate it when someone calls up a specific image, which allows you to resize theme images at any time without going through the regeneration process (which can be very long). Any created file sizes can also be deleted at any time as long as the original exists.
