    Hi there, I’m using your plugin and having a problem with some posts, some of them are showing the ‘No thumbnail’.

    When I inspect, it has a comment on the code saying something like: “It was not possible to get the image size”.

    Problem

    Thanks for the attention.

    Hi @padawantoni,

    When I inspect, it has a comment on the code saying something like: “It was not possible to get the image size”.

    Could you please check again and tell me what’s the exact error message shown in the HTML code?

    Of course:

    <!– Não foi possível ler o tamanho da imagem. –>

    It’s in Portugues from Brazil. Translating: Could not read image size.

    I can’t link my website here, but it’s the Playboy website, from Brazil. You have to write playboy dot com, and put dot ‘br‘ in the end.

    Ah, thanks for the notice. I can’t check that site now since I’m at the office and the boss wouldn’t find it very amusing hehe

    I’ll have a look and get back to you as soon as I can.

    Hey man!

    Finally had a moment to check the site. Here’s what’s going on: the featured image of the “Einnis” post is being stored in the cloud (Amazon’s AWS service, to be more precise.)

    When you tell WPP to generate thumbnails from Featured Images (Settings > WordPress Popular Posts > Tools) the plugin assumes that these are stored on your server (as this is WordPress’ stock behavior) and tries to fetch them. And then of course it fails and shows that ugly “No thumbnail” image instead.

    So, you either move that image back to your server so WPP can use it or if you’re using the W3 Total Cache plugin you could follow these instructions to move WPP’s thumbnails into your AWS cloud storage.

    TLDR;

    The featured image for the “Einnis” post isn’t stored on your server but on a cloud storage where WPP can’t reach it. Read the last paragraph to learn how to fix it 😛

    I discovered that the previous developer had already set up a plugin for the Amazon AWS S3 bucket. I’m a bit afraid to set the W3 Total Cache in this same S3 bucket and the site will break or lose the image links.

    The plugin WP Offload S3 Lite is already configured. If I the CDN option from W3, all the images will lose the path, right?

    No idea, honestly.

    If you wish to keep using the cloud storage you should get in touch with the developers of the WP Offload S3 Lite plugin to ask them whether it is possible or not to add a custom image folder -like W3TC does- to the cloud.
