Single or bulk regeneration of thumbnails (resized uploaded images) and creation of a custom structure for uploading thumbnails made easy. Force regenerate thumbnails after e.g a theme change!

== Description ==

**Real Thumbnail Generator allows you efficiently to regenerate your (existing) thumbnails in your media library. You can regenerate a single image or images in bulk. The plugin allows you to create a custom upload structure for thumbnails.**

The regeneration of thumbnails can be up to 33% faster than other plugins like Regenerate Thumbnails or Force Regenerate Thumbnails due to chunked regeneration. Just install this plugin and it works with all your image and media files without any problems. It also supports WordPress Multisites.

... and after you set a custom upload structure it can look like: 
wp-content/uploads/2016/11/thumbnails/medium/myimage.jpg
