External Images Update Released – manual update required
Firstly, my apologies to those of you not using External Images. We have a change coming very soon which will give you the option to choose which email updates to receive.
A fairly major update to External Images has just been released, but included in it is a change to the folder name. Because of this a manual update is required.
To manually update the plugin, follow these steps:
- Download the new plugin file from your account – https://staging.superspeedyplugins.com/my-account/
- Deactivate the plugin on your site
- Delete the plugin on your site
- Upload the new zip file
- Activate the plugin
Changes include many requested features including CSS portrait/landscape image cropping, check image sizes (and grab largest) and Facebook OpenGraph tags. You can view the full list of implemented features here:

We have changelogs in most of the plugins now and we’ll be making those changelogs visible on the product pages soon.
I made the update and afterwards I noticed that product images are not anymore visible on my websites front page where I use "Featured products" widget. I also tried the default "Latest products" -widget and it was the same. I also changed theme to the basic theme, and it was the same. My webpage is http://vaatehaukka.fi
The new plugin works in the shop, but outside the shop it doesn't seem to work - the previous version worked outside shop as well (e.g. in website front page widget).
