Serendipity Forums

Hello everybody,
is it possible to rebuild thumbnails of photos that have already been uploaded in a different (larger) size?

When I installed serendipity, I kept the default width of 110 px for thumbs.
For a certain entry, I uploaded a number of photos to the media database (or whatever it is called in English ), and used the thumbs in the entry.

Well, when the entry was ready, I found out that the 110 px size thumbs look rather small, too small for my taste... I changed the value to 130 px in the configuration, but I found out that it works only for new photos, not for the ones that already reside on the server...

So my question is:
Is there any method to rebuild the thumbs of the existing photos in the new thumbnail size?

Thanks in advance for your help,
regards, biesi

I'm not sure if there is a better (easier) way, but I just tend to delete all the thumbs (using and ftp client or shell access) and rebuild the thumbs inside serendipity's interface.

All the thumbs should be marked in the file name (default is *.serendipityThumb.JPG).

Hi mgroeninger,
that works perfectly! Great hint; thank you very much! This really was a help for me.
