I second this, that would be awsome! 🙂

This is NOT resolved and the support poster has a point!

Since WordPress 5.3, WP has had a feature so that it automatically scales any image above 2560 pixels (this is basically a nice feature). It then simply adds an image named _scaled and uses that in the code instead of the original.

This means for some reason that Easy Watermark does not watermark neither the original image nor the scaled one. I just tested it (again) and I have the same problem on a live site. It never scales the original image!

I just checked and double checked, both on my live site and on a sandbox. I suggest you do the same.

To the poster:

You can disable this new feature by following this guide. Basically, add the filter

add_filter( 'big_image_size_threshold', '__return_false' );

in your theme functions. That way, Easy Watermark will work again, I just checked. (For some reason, I have a 150px thumb which is watermarked too, even though I disabled watermarks for the 150px thumb… that is another can of worms though.

BTW: If you like the feature of auto-scaling the full size picture, use Imsanity. That will likely work with Easy Watermark because it doesn’t do anything under the hood.

I second that, and it actually shouldn’t be an issue to decide what custom taxonomy the plugin should work with 😉

I think I can tell you this because I have the same problem.

What happens if you visit admin-ajax.php? You get a “0” which means it is working.
However, if I do the same with curl on the server, I get a 404 error.

This happens regardless of whether or not I activate or deactivate Wordfence on the site.

Maybe you should write your own handshake, because it seems like this is a MAJOR ISSUE for a lot of people!

Forget all this php crap. The risk of breakage is higher due to the two extra layers that may fail (php and web server).

The command (in Linux) is:

To MyISAM:
D=voksenbasen; for t in $(mysql $D -B -e ‘SHOW TABLES’); do mysql $D -e “ALTER TABLE $t ENGINE=MyISAM”; done

To InnoDB:
D=voksenbasen; for t in $(mysql $D -B -e ‘SHOW TABLES’); do mysql $D -e “ALTER TABLE $t ENGINE=InnoDB”; done

Ahh. As Eventualo points out, there are several.

I use wp-mail-smtp myself, this is very effective.
