macmike78 on "[Plugin: Featured Image Admin Thumb] Duplicate Thumbs"

OMG this plugin is so awesome! Saved me a bunch of time uploading a pile of placeholder feature images. The problem is, I just dragged & dropped my real images over top the placeholder ones (local dev) and now I have 2 thumbs showing up under the thumb column for each page/post.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hey - great that it's helping you out.

I'm not sure I understand fully the issue you are describing.

Can you supply a screen shot (perhaps using http://imgur.com/ and that might help me see what's happening.

Also, would you be able to, step by step, describe the actions you have taken when applying your placeholder feature images - that might help me recreate the issue and determine how best I can help.

Thanks again for using my plugin.

Ran some more tests. Looks like it's only happening with download monitor. It's no big deal, would just look a lot prettier if it didn't look the way it does. I could probably re-assign them manually.

Screenshot can be viewed here.

What I did was come up with a file naming system for all my media. I created placeholder images for everything before getting into the nitty-gritty of choosing & batch processing my photos (ie: create a placeholder image called foo.jpg, made it my feature image. Then when I'm ready I just replace my placeholder foo.jpg with the real foo.jpg in my uploads folder and voila, just like that, my entire site is populated with all the right images.

Might seem like a stupid idea but is working great for me so far, that is until I noticed this. ;)

Thanks Sean! You rock!!

NM man - it's only doing it to Download Monitor because they already have a thumb preview. So when I have your plugin tued on, there's 2 thumbs squished together. No worrys. Awesome plugin Sean!
