I was on 2.5.0beta4, I think you guys added support for topic thumbnails since then - is that it? I don’t really need those as I’m using the Topic List Preview plugin for now, so is there a way to disable this for the time being? It already ate through 2 5GB of disk and is far from done…

FYI Rob has changed TLP to use the thumbnails generated by core, so you’ll need those thumbnails moving forward See: Topic List Previews (legacy) - #1166 by merefield

Gotcha, thanks! Hopefully the now unused TLP old thumbnails will be cleaned up @merefield?

Images should be deleted once orphaned:
