Description

vhost=yes version=r733

In the uploader when browsing old images they say that they have no thumbnails when you click on the image. The thumbnails are still there and show in the old posts and for me they show in the image browser. However, they do not show if you try to use the old image in a new post. Instead the full image is put in the post. Also the path to the image is set as ../files/more_stuff which will not work if you view the post anywhere but the home page of the blog. I know I am on an old build but I just ran into this while trying to teach a professors class how to put images in posts.

To summarise what I found (with older uploaded images):

1. Old links in posts still work 2. Thumbnail displays in image browser 3. No option to include a thumbnail if you edit the old post and use the previously uploaded images.

This only happens with old posts, I suspect it has to do with the older thumb-filename.ext vs filename.thumbnail.ext and them being identified to be displayed but not to be sent to the post.

Sorry, but this won't be fixed unless someone else someone else wants to do it. It shouldn't be too hard. A script needs to find thumbnails with old filenames, then rename them and search each blog's postmeta table for the attachment record and rename it there too.
