Hi victoria,
Geoblocking is now turned off…can you try again please?Thanks,
RobApril 14, 2019 at 8:19 pm in reply to: 404 error loading themes/enfold/images/background-images/ios-linen-dark.png #1090705Hi Mike, thanks for your response!
Interesting!
No, the staging site is not doing this (in private content).Caching cannot be disabled as it is server side mandated by WP Engine, but I can exclude certain cookies and subdirectories.
What would you suggest I try?
Thanks much!
RobApril 12, 2019 at 7:10 am in reply to: Move to mobile menu if the menu bar begins to wrap on desktop? #1089903Hi there,
Sorry for delay in responding – we had a death in the family.
You can check it out here:
and it looks like it starts wrapping under 1350 pixels when I look at it on developer tools on Chrome.
Thanks!
RobThe above code, pasted into the Optima Express configuration “css override” does indeed fix the issue with Enfold / Optima Express.
OK to close this ticket… maybe it will help another Enfolder in the future.Cheers
RobMarch 22, 2019 at 2:06 am in reply to: Please Stop Enfold Generating So Many Images Sizes for Every Image #1081661I had a similar issue though without the CPU problems… (I have WP Engine, and they are amazing, zero regrets switching to them).
I was able to reduce the storage used on my site by 50%.
Good luck!
RobHi Günter!
Thanks for checking. It’s not a big deal — I just go into classic editor and select the photo size that I use most often, then Avia remembers it until I choose a different size in Classic.
I’m 99% sure that Avia used to “remember” the last photo size selected. I think it changed during one of the major revisions where the mobile menu functionality changed… maybe around 3.0? It’s been like this for at least 1.5-2.5 years.
Thanks again! OK to close thread.
Cheers
RobHi Günter,
Thanks so much. Hoping it’s an easy fix since it’s such a small little bug.Thanks,
RobPaging @Guenter… ;)
Hi Victoria and happy 2019!
Yes I was blocking locations to reduce bots… blocking is turned off except for China now. Let me know please if you need China opened as well.Best,
RobI do not have lazy loading enabled and am still seeing this behavior on Masonry after the last update, even with animation turned off.
It seems like you have to scroll past the masonry and to get it to “fire”…January 19, 2019 at 7:34 am in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1055791Sure thing, Rikard, hope it helps someone else. And maybe Gunter can work on this option for a future version of Enfold? :)
January 18, 2019 at 5:21 pm in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1055520Hi Gitte, I saw that button and used it on Simple Image Sizes Plugin to re-generate thumbnails, but after it ran I checked via SFTP and all the old ones were still there. It was not until I used the “Regenerate Thumbnails” plugin that the old ones were deleted. Perhaps this is unique to my server environment on WP Engine but I’m just glad to have the disk space cleaned up.
Thanks for your help!
January 18, 2019 at 7:15 am in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1055362OK… I gave up on using the functions.php and installed the plugins…. and I’ve reduced the storage used on my site by 50% from 9 GB to 4.5 GB with zero impact on the site itself. I DO THINK that Enfold should add this to the theme options… it’s ridiculous to save 15 files for every photo if you only need a few of them… wastes lots of space.
For anyone else searching for this or needing to do this in the future, download:
– Regenerate Thumbnails plugin
– Simple Image Sizes PluginUse Simple Image Sizes (SIS) to select which photo sizes you want to use on your site (See Gitte’s screenshots above for how to do it), then use Regenerate Thumbnails and select ” Delete thumbnail files for old unregistered sizes in order to free up server space. This may result in broken images in your posts and pages”
BE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR ENTIRE SITE BEFORE YOU BEGIN THIS PROCESS
Thanks all for your help!! I am surprised this isn’t a more common request on this forum.

January 17, 2019 at 9:32 pm in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1055162Thanks Gitte, and then to re-generate the older media files already uploaded, do you use regenerate thumbnails plugin?
I’m a bit concerned that the plugin you are recommending has not been updated in a long time and has not be certified to be compatible with WP 5.0…?January 17, 2019 at 1:18 am in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1054813This code seems to keep all the thumbnails except the shop thumbnails when I upload… so after I installed the code in functions.php in my child theme, I uploaded a photo, and there are still 12 files (versus the original 15 at the top of this thread).
I would imagine others will have this request if and when they start running up against their own 10 GB server storage limits. Can we figure this out please?
Thanks,
RobJanuary 10, 2019 at 6:57 pm in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1052441Ismael, thanks so much. However I want to keep some of Enfold’s sizes.
It sounds like this will eliminate all the theme’s sizes?I would like keep all except:
– portfolio
– portfolio small
– gallery
– entry with sidebar
– entry without sidebar
-shop thumbnail
-shop catalog
– shop singleDo I need to customize the above code?
Thanks for continuing to work with me on this…. !
Cheers
RobJanuary 9, 2019 at 6:20 pm in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1051980I am unclear what to do here. Am I supposed to add that to the script you already gave me? Does this replace the code you already gave me? I am not a coder so need more explanation please.
Thanks
RobJanuary 8, 2019 at 3:15 am in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1051136OK I added the below code to functions.php on my child theme and nothing changed… I uploaded a photo and all the sizes were generated when I SFTP in and look at the directory:
function ava_image_sizes() {
remove_image_size(‘magazine’);
remove_image_size(‘widget’);
remove_image_size(‘portfolio_small’);
remove_image_size(‘gallery’);
remove_image_size(‘entry_with_sidebar’);
remove_image_size(‘entry_without_sidebar’);
remove_image_size(‘shop_thumbnail’);
remove_image_size(‘shop_catalog’);
remove_image_size(‘shop_single’);
}
add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘ava_image_sizes’, 11 );What did I do wrong?
Thanks,
RobI use WP Engine and Enfold as well, and I can sure you PHP 7.2 works great.
On the WP Engine dashboard / portal, you can actually toggle to PHP 7.2 and if it doesn’t work, toggle back to 7.1.
As Michael said above, I would make a full backup using WP Engine’s one click backup, and I would take the extra step of downloading a full backup to your machine using the “Download production backup ZIP” option on the backup panel. I think that’s a good thing to do every 6 months or so.

January 5, 2019 at 5:52 am in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1050193Thank you, Basilis!
Questions:
1. Will this process get rid of the photos used for Woo Commerce? I won’t use Woo Commerce.
2. For this line do I change the 11 to the number of photo sizes I end up with? add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘ava_image_sizes’, 11 );
3. After this, do I use Regenerate Thumbnails plugin to re-process all the photos in my media library and delete the ones not used, or do I use a different plugin?Thanks!!!!
RobJanuary 3, 2019 at 5:15 pm in reply to: Photos taking up a huge amount of space on my site storage – anything I can do? #1049652Hi Ismael,
Thank you for the response!Is there a way to do this without a plugin? Modify functions.php in my child theme? And are there additional sizes generated by Enfold for Woo Commerce?
Thanks!!
RobDecember 17, 2018 at 10:23 pm in reply to: Strange results when searching our website on google #1046567I had this same issue for quite a while. Have you updated Yoast to latest version? There’s a “redirect attachments” option that allows you to redirect them to your post page. I think the newest version of Yoast does that automatically.
Also, in your media library you have to make sure that your photos etc are actually attached to specific pages.
This should solve your problem:

RobDecember 14, 2018 at 5:44 am in reply to: WordPress 5.0.1 Security Release / Enfold 4.5.1 Question #1045131Sounds like WP Engine will upgrade us to 4.9.9 instead of 5.0.1 to address the security issues.
“WordPress Security Upgrade 5.0.1

December 14, 2018 at 4:03 am in reply to: Editor Unexpected Error After WordPress 5.0 and Enfold 4.5.1 #1045104Are you using legacy staging on WP Engine? That one is throwing a lot of errors on the front end which support can fix in a matter of minutes. They told me it’s a known issue with legacy staging.
December 13, 2018 at 6:49 pm in reply to: WordPress 5.0.1 Security Release / Enfold 4.5.1 Question #1044975According to their page, they handle security updates differently. I had selected the “defer updates” button when WP 5 came out and we saw the issues.
“SECURITY/MAINTENANCE UPDATES
This type of update contains security or minor fixes that are pushed out to repair a vulnerability or bug in the WordPress core. We immediately investigate that the change doesn’t adversely affect our platform then push it out to our customer’s installs. We have found that the vast majority of installs that are adversely affected by security updates are ones that are using the vulnerability that is being closed. Because of this, we cannot defer security updates as this would keep your site and our platform vulnerable. Given the timeframe, site administrators will only be emailed on the same day as the upgrade occurs.”Full page here:
Having said this, the classic editor plugin seems to solve the issues I was having on ALB pages not loading, but the fact that there is an incompatibility makes me concerned to update to 5.0.1 until Enfold weighs in. I don’t think I will have a choice much longer according to WP Engine’s process.
December 9, 2018 at 8:57 pm in reply to: Major problems with new WordPress 5.0 and Enfold 4.5.1 updates! #1042809If you install the classic editor plugin, all problems are solved.
December 9, 2018 at 8:52 pm in reply to: WordPress 5.0 + Enfold 4.5.1 + ALB = Problems Loading Elements #1042807Yes, that plugin fixes the problems! Mike, you might want to add that suggestion to the sticky. Much better than the “save and re-save” the page which didn’t work for me.
Cheers
RobDecember 8, 2018 at 6:24 pm in reply to: WordPress 5.0 + Enfold 4.5.1 + ALB = Problems Loading Elements #1042511Thanks, Mike, it’s great to have a mod and development team on this. And thanks for the sticky!!!!
I hope it’s still Saturday and not Sunday or else I’m in big trouble! :)

RobDecember 8, 2018 at 5:45 pm in reply to: WordPress 5.0 + Enfold 4.5.1 + ALB = Problems Loading Elements #1042501Thanks Mike. The solution from 007 is not working for me on pages that I had already opened to test… perhaps it only works the first time a page is opened? In any event I will wait for 4.5.2 before installing WP 5.0 on my production site. :)
“Edit: if you first – when you open an existing Enfold ALB Page goto “Save” : “Update” Button on the right top side – then the page will be as it should be – and the image of text-block element would not be this way above:”
