Hello,
every time I post and attach an image, the server creates 20 different versions of that image with different sizes, which apparently are needed since each one is used for each individual Blocks.
We would like to avoid it. How can we do?
Do we need to disable the blocks we don’t care about in Block settings> Thumbs on module blocks?
If we turn them all off, what happens?
Also … what is the module blocks of the mobile version?
Last request: our server is overloaded with 20 different versions of the same image, is a reverse procedure possible on the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin, or can I delete all 20 regenerated versions and leave only the original image file?
Hello !
By going in Theme Panel – Blocks Settings -Thumbs you will be able to see What sizes each block uses. By inspecting your website you will be able to see what blocks do you use. Then deactivate all the unused thumb sizes.
You can remove the images but only the unused sizes.
I hope this was helpful !
Thank you !
I asked a slightly different version of this same question earlier today:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/reducing-number-of-images-generated/
I assume the answer is similar? Thanks!
Hi,
The theme need to create thumbs for each thumb enable in theme panel -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/ if the images that you are uploading in media library are to small the theme can not create these thumbs, therefore you need to use a plugin to regenerate the images to the size that your theme needs -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/
If the problem persist please provide me a link to your website and some example.
Please enable only the thumbs dimension you use.
Hope this will help you!
Thank you!
