    Hi,

    Thanks for this fantastic plugin. We are trying to integrate the plugin into our production environment after testing in our development environment. We have more than 3000 images with five different sizes and we’ll only apply a watermark to one of these sizes.

    The bulk mode didn’t work (at last with a page size of 100 or 500) because the browser returns “Request-URI Too Long. The requested URL’s length exceeds the capacity limit for this server.”. Anyway, using this approach would require us to go page by page applying the watermarks.

    We are also using Regenerate Thumbnails plugin to regenerate all the images and image size changes. I read here http://www.dfactory.co/support/topic/regenerate-the-watermarked-images/ that this plugin should work with
    any regenerate image plugins, but in this case it didn’t work.

    Is there any workaround or advice about how to apply the watermark image to all existing images?

    Thanks in advance,
    Julian

    Hi Julian,

    And sorry for the late reply – we just temporarily limited the support and focused on development, that’s why we have some delays.

    When it comes to your case:

    1. Try bulk watermarking smaller number of files at once. There are might be different server limitations that make it impossible to process larger number of files at once. There’s not much you can do at the WP level (but try to increase memory limit in wp config). I suggest asking your hosting provider for some help and guidance with the error.

    2. Image regeneration plugins are useful if you want to remove/change the previously applied watermark from your images. It uses full size image (the original one) to re-generate other image sizes, so the best practice is to never apply watermark (or any other image modification) to those full size images. If you didn’t apply watermark yet, it will do nothing for you.

    Hope this helps.
