HiIs there an easy way to manually or alternatively use a script on a windows installation to regenerate all thumbnails for a specific site?Thanks Mark

Hi,

You can force the regeneration of a thumbnail when this is requested. The corresponding URL has a request parameter to force (c=force) a new thumbnail each time. Note that this will be resource consuming.
You'll need to modify the call URL wherever it is defined.

Hi

Thank you for your reply.

I have tried using the method you suggest:

It doesnt seem to regenrate the thumbnails unfortunately.

I am more than likely doing something wrong.

Thanks

Mark
