## Description

Generate Thumbnail allows you to generate all thumbnails on your site. There are
already some plugins available for this, but they have one thing in common: All 
thumbnails are regenerate in a single step. This works fine when you don’t have 
that many photos on your site. When you have a lot of full-size photos, the script
on the server side takes a long time to run. Unfortunately the time a script is 
allowed to run is limited, which sets an upper limit to the number of thumbnails
you can regenerate. This number depends on the server configuration and the computing
power your server has available. When you get over this limit, you won’t be able
to generate your thumbnails.

Why would you want to generate your thumbnails? WordPress allows you to change the
size of thumbnails. This way, you can make the size of thumbnails fit the design
of your website. When you change the size to fit for a new theme, all future photos
you are going to upload will have this new size. Your old thumbnails won’t be resized.
That’s where this plugin comes into action. After changing the image sizes, you 
can generate all thumbnails. But instead of telling the server to recreate all thumbnails
at once, they are generate one after another. Generateing thumbnails for one photo
won’t take all too long, so you won’t run into any script timeouts. Note that you
still have to wait until all thumbnails have been rebuilt. If you close the page
before the task is completed, you have to start all over again.

You can also select the thumbnail sizes you want to generate, so that you don’t 
need to recreate all images if you’ve just changed one thumbnail-size. You can also
choose to only generate post thumbnails (featured images).

This plugin requires JavaScript to be enabled.
