When I have images uploaded to Wordpress, there is no way for me to flexibly edit these images. For example, let's say I want to add a colored overlay over an image that has been uploaded to Wordpress. For me to do this, I have to add the overlay to the image, then upload the new modified image to Wordpress. When I am developing a non-Wordpress site, however, all I have to do is link to the photo in the CSS, then using the Image Assets generator, the linked image is changed on the fly. This saves me from having to re-upload photos every time I make a change.
Is there any Photoshop script or plugin, or just a method in general for editing photos without having to re-upload them to Wordpress?
There isn't any script out there that I know of, but if you have access to the wordpress uploads directory via an ftp client, you can edit the originally uploaded file and then use a plugin like Regenerate Thumbnails to update the smaller and automatically generated images.

I am only able to upload single images per time using the WP Page Builder, I have to save the page and then upload another image, whenever I try uploading another image, the screen greys out until I save the page before I'm able to upload another image
I should be able to just upload pictures as much as I want before saving the page
I'm using the add_image_size(); along with the_post_thumbnail(); from wordpress in my functions.php BUT I want the existing images to be refreshed automatically without having to remove and upload them again. How's that possible?
There are multiple plugins that allow you to regenerate your thumbnails without having to reupload them.
Some of them are:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/force-regenerate-thumbnails/
These plugins actually take the currently registered image sizes, and regenerate all of your images with these sizes, automatically. So once you make a change to your existing image sizes, or create a new image size, you should simply use one of these plugins to regenerate your images quickly.
When I'm working in localhost, every uploaded image in wordpress generates thumbnails and after that I can edit manually these thumbnails and replace .jpg files with the edited ones. But when I placed my site online, every time I load the home page, it generates all the thumbnails AGAIN and that erases my edited thumbnails. I also assume that makes my site slower.
Is there a way to disable that?
I'm trying to create a wallpapers site, using WordPress platform. The website should have similar functions like this wallpapers site. Which plugin is required to re-size images in multiple sizes, like 1920x1200, or 1920x1080. If there's no such plugin, how can I create this function in WordPress?
You have two options for this:
Manual: Uploaded images can be edited and cropped to the required size by teh administrator. Go to the media library, find the image, click edit and make the changes necessary
Automatic: I found this page by typing "how to edit image size in wordpress" when I was, in fact, looking for a manual that would explain with screenshots the instructions in step 1 above: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-create-additional-image-sizes-in-wordpress/
The post there makes use of the add_image_size function of Wordpress and tells Wordpress to automatically generate thumbnails in your required size.
Creating a Wallpaper website in WordPress is now as easy as counting 1-2-3. All you need a WordPress + decent hosting and a Wallpaper WordPress theme from https://binarynote.com
Just install Wallpaper WordPress theme along with their bulk image uploader plugin and you are ready to upload your wallpapers. The theme is able to generate different image sizes like you have mentioned automatically but will not store any such images on your server.
here is one such theme for your ready reference. https://binarynote.com/wordpress-theme-wallpaper.html
Hope this will help you a lot.
I am developing a wordpress plugin and I have a problem with image uploading. I need do something like what a custom-header contain where I can upload image and use it. I try to use http://goo.gl/JHna9 It upload image successfully but I need something more. I need to find out way how tell to wordpress that uploaded picture was for my plugin and next get all pictures uploaded through my plugin.
Any ideas?
Thanks
you have several choices.
Use the same upload function to create a DB entry (But I would not reccomand it if it is not absolutely neccessary)
use the same function you are uploading to create a hidden custom field - associating it somehow (with a key) to your plugin (after all - an attachment is only a taxonomy for some kind of post - and has it´s own metadata. )
put your attachments in a different folder (can be usefull - depending on what you want to do)
