Crop Thumbnails 1.10.0Latest
- fix crop filename keeping the source extension (e.g. “photo.jpg-150×150.webp”) if image_editor_output_format is used
- fix deleting a file that is still used by another image size when re-cropping
- if the original of a scaled image is missing the editor now asks the user to confirm cropping from the smaller scaled image and shows its resolution (filter crop_thumbnails_allow_cropping_from_scaled_image to disable it)
- fix saving the settings “Sizes and Post Types” failed with a PHP error (TypeError) on some sites, i.e. with plain permalinks (thanks to rainersnookh)
- if there is only one image size to crop it is selected automatically
- the crop editor shows a checkerboard (like the WordPress default crop) instead of black behind transparent images
- fix fatal error (HTTP 500, DivisionByZeroError on PHP 8) in the crop editor if the original of a scaled image is missing – the editor now shows a message instead (thanks to E1NSER)
- fix: image sizes hidden for a post type (settings) are now also hidden when cropping from the media dialog inside the post editor (e.g. SCF/ACF image fields) – the post type is derived from the edited post
- security: check if the user is allowed to edit the image before reading or cropping it (thanks to Pedro Pinho for reporting)
- security: harden input handling of the settings endpoints
- the plugin requires WordPress 5.7 or newer (it already used functions of that version)
- code cleanup (escaping, direct file access protection, WordPress file functions)
- filter crop_thumbnails_user_permission_check: the default value now also contains the permission to edit the specific image (see github readme)
