Under construction
In TNGv12 and beyond, this mod uses the new guidelines for TNG v12+ cust_text.php files
If you are using TNGv12+, and any cust_text.php file in this mod is marked with a Bad Target error, you need to update your cust_text.php files before you can install this mod. [Show instructions]
If you upgraded to TNGv12+, and did not update your cust_text.php files as instructed in the upgrade readme script, then you must use the TNG Mod Manager to update them. To do so:
- Go to Mod Manager, and select its "Recommended Updates" tab.
(If the "Recommended Updates" tab is not visible, then go to the Mod Manager Options tab, select "Display Settings", and turn on the "Recommended Updates" tab.) - Click the "Update" button in the "Recommended Updates" tab.
Installed mods do not interfere with the update, and if you already have (or think you may have) run this update, it will not hurt for you to run it again.

Purpose of the Mod
To make the the generation of thumbnails quicker and more flexible. Changes include:
- A mod parameter lets you increase the file size limit (which is normally 1MB), since most servers seem able to process files of 2MB or more.
- Process only the Mediatypes and tree that have been selected (I generally don't bother with censuses and documents)
- Generate a list of new thumbnail paths and offer to display it.
- Displays files that couldn't be processed (and offers to hide that list).
On a technical note: This mod turn admin_generatethumbs.php into an Include file that is included directly in admin_thumbnails.php, which, in the native code, runs admin_generatethumbs.php through AJAX. Unfortunately, using AJAX causes some errors to be hidden and makes it impractical to interrupt a long-running operation.
Parameters
Skip files larger than this size, in KB (defaults to 2000)
PHP crashes badly if it runs out of memory when trying to create a thumbnail, and the pristine code sets 1000Kb; that is, 1MB, as a reasonably conservative limit. I have found that I can get by with 2.5MB (2500KB) on my servers.
Compatibility With Other Mods
This mod is compatible with Unused Media, the only other published mod that affects either program.

Like virtually all of my mods, this mod uses, but does not in any way depend on, Show Mod Names.
