Smart Phone Uploads Will Not Work With Pluging

    I like the resize image on upload plugin, however when I send an image and text via a smart phone to create a wordpress post, the image does not send with it. If I deactive the plugin, the image sends fine into the post, but it’s way too large due to the phone. My smallest size of image I can take with a Samsung Note 3 is about 1MB and over 2000 pixels wide. I had it set to send images at 720 pixels in width. It works fine when I just upload from my regular computer into the WordPress media library.

    Any suggestions? Or is there another plugin you would recommend that can handle reducing images sent via a smart phone?

    When you say through a smart phone, do you mean through the WordPress app? I’m afraid the plugin doesn’t work through the app due to it using the XML-RPC interface which by-passes the image processing tools of the media library which are required for the plugin to function. Through the browser on the phone, it should be fine.

    What you can do is check out the add_image_size() function (http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/add_image_size) in WordPress which will allow you to define a specific size to show images at in your posts. You will still end up uploading the huge images from your phone, but at least you will be able to display a smaller downsized image in your post.

    Hope that helps,
    Phil
