[Plugin: Media Tools] Problem With Ajax – Plugin doesn't work

    Hi, I really need this plug-in to import in media library a lot (700+ posts) of images added from another site.

    I found this plug in that does exactly what I need, but unfortunately it doesn’t work in my WP (3.4.1 with Genesis Child theme).

    When I select my settings in “Media Tools” tab, and press “Set featured images” button, nothing happens but being redirected to “tools.php” (home of Tools section) with a long GET query string.

    /wp-admin/tools.php?choose-tool=convert-import&content=all&cat=0&post_author=0&post_start_date=0&post_end_date=0&post_status=0&page_author=0&page_start_date=0&page_end_date=0&page_status=0&submit=Set+Featured+Images

    It seems Ajax not working.

    Any suggestion?
    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Hi Thanks for the bug report.

    Can you try again but instead of choosing all content choose posts only. Also if you are importing external images you need to select import and set featured image.

    I’m going to do some more testing to see if I can determine the problem.

    I installed the new version and now it works fine (thanks); it grabbed all images and saved locally (posts only), the only problem was it didn’t set them as featured images.
    After that I run the “Set featured images” only function and it worked too.

    Errata corrige:

    it grabbed all images and saved locally

    It imported the first images only. All other images in posts are the same (not imported with old url).

    You should get feedback for each post. Depending on what tool is ran it will say “featured image set” if it sets a featured image,

    "featured image already set" if the post already has a featured image,
    "img already in media library" for found images that match the base url of your uploads folder (doesn't actually check if the image is in media library- just does a url comparison)

    For imported external images you should see a thumbnail of the image along with a link to edit it.

    See this screenshot as an example. http://c3mdigital.com/files/2012/08/tools.png

    If you don’t get the “Media Tool Complete” output at the bottom of the page it means that the execution timed out. You can fix this by increasing your php.ini max execution time or breaking it up into date blocks. For very large sites you might not be able to handle the complete import in one round. The next version will hopefully have a progress bar and something to prevent the timeout.
