FeedWord Press - Media attachments - wordpress

I installed the FeedWordpress plugin but I noticed it was not posting the images in the media attachment of the feeds, but only the text. I found a little script that helped me a bit (the images are added to a custom field without actually downloading them). The problem is I need thumbnail images and of course.. you can't have thumbnail images without downloading the image.
Is there any way I could download automatically the images in the media attachments ? Or, is there any other way I could have my thumbnails fixed ?
I would honestly appreciate any help

I am major armature in the developer domain, however, my PHP guy sorted it out by downloading another plugin called Auto Post Thumbnail, they did a small hack so it would constantly check for feature images.
You have to make sure you sure your CSS person tells the feature image grabber to only grab images of a certain size, and crop if necessary, this will prevent it pulling social media icons in as feature images :)
**I did have a duplicating image problem recently, i disabled Jetpack which fixed the problem, but I want Jetpack back :(
Good luck, if you need more detailed information, I will ask my developer.
Sincerely,

Wordpress website uploads texts before images

My website uploads texts some fraction of a second before the images or graphic appears.
I use elementor pro as my website builder and hello theme. Please wish to know how to tackle this issue. Thanks for helping.
The simple answer is: your browser prioritizes smaller file sizes. Use properly optimized images and make sure to use the webm format for optimal user experience.
That's it. There's nothing more to it than that. Use smaller images. You can look through google's do's and don'ts here.

Removing image size assignments - wordpress

I noticed that my images weren't crisp, and in the inspector found the piece of code that is making them blurry. But, now I don't know where to look within the actual code to remove this. It's not assigned in CSS. This is a portfolio page. I am using the Avada theme. Any ideas?

Looking at your theme's demo I see sharp images and the image code is different. So, the problem is not caused by your theme.
My guess is that you use Jetpack's Photon on your site. Try to deactivate the module and see if this changes anything.
However, image compression is a good thing, especially when using lots of images. Perhaps, if deactivating the Photon module solves the issue, compare the speed of your website with and without Photon. If it makes a notable difference, look in the Photon settings, to see what you could change to solve the issue.
Also, JPEG files (.jpg) may not be the best choice for your thumbnails, because you lose a lot of quality when the image isn't shown at its original size. If changing the settings doesn't help, you could try to use PNG files instead.
If Photon causes the issue and you don't find a way to solve it, while still compressing your images, I would suggest to contact Jetpack support. Alternatively you could try to use a different WordPress plugin for image compression.
I hope that helps. GL!

WordPress Plugin for video banner?

I'd like to have a video banner on my WordPress site pages. I saw the following site (http://pictoryproductions.com/) and they have exactly what I would like to do on my site. However, I'm not sure what plugin they used to accomplish this. Could anyone just point me in the right direction?
I'm fairly new to WordPress, so if anyone can suggest what plugin to use, or if there is functionality already in place in WordPress for this how I can use it to get the effect I want.
UPDATE
As per the requirement to show what has been done so far to achieve the result I want, I have created a PHP page that uses the HTML 5 video tags to embed the video I want, with the PNG overlay. I then embed the page using an iframe tag from within WordPress. The problem is I have to create a new PHP page for each WordPress page I want with this layout when it needs a different video and overlay png image.
Thank you!!!
To avoid an opinionated answer on what I think is the best plugin to use, I just did a simple View Page Source on the site you posted and picked through to find where that video banner is displayed. It references a lot of classes and stuff labeled "mejs" which I think refers to a mediaelement.js plugin found here:

Pinterest Bookmarklet Not Finding Images

I have searched quite a bit for a solution and can't seem to find anything on this topic so I thought I would reach out to this amazing community.
I will try to provide enough context here so that others may be able to see what is going wrong.
Up till a few days ago I have been able to use the standard pinterest bookmarklet to pin images from my blog's main page (Forged Photography) to pinterest. I tried pinning some images today and realized that it is only finding my header image and none of the other content.
It is a wordpress blog and I have deactivated my plugins and changed my theme to eliminate those aspects as a cause and the behavior still remains.
I have uploaded content in two ways:
Uploaded photos via Wordpress and created galleries
Pinterest bookmarklet only finds the header image and the featured gallery image
Embedding images that are hosted on facebook
I can still pin them if I click on individual pictures but I can't pin from the main page of the blog.
When I used to click the bookmarklet from the main page of my blog it used to pull up all of the images contained in all of the posts and enable me to pin them, now it only finds my header image.
Any ideas on what may have happened or what is preventing the bookmarklet from finding the images?
Well, it isn't the answer that I was looking for but it seems to work out. A nice lady reached out to me on Facebook who was experiencing the same issue, turns out Pinterest won't find images that are under 200px...
Doesn't explain why I was able to pin them in the past but now I can't. I am not crazy about the way the thumbnails look # 200px, any other ideas on how to get around this issue?
Try this:
<img src="smallimage.jpg" data-pin-media="largeimage.jpg" />
The bookmarklet should pick up the image you send in data-pin-media. Also worth trying out: data-pin-url, which will make the bookmarklet pin the URL you suggest rather than the URL of the page you're on right now.

Batch resized images on server, now image sizes are wrong in Wordpress

I ran a Mogrify script on my server and resized about 1000 images. That went fine.
However when I started editing pages in Wordpress I noticed the images all looked very odd. Thumbnails for example weren't sized correctly and looked like they had been resized incorrectly.
I checked some images in the media library and saw that their metadata showed the old resolution, before I had resized it.
Is there any way I can have Wordpress go through and update its media library with the correct image sizes?
Problem is WordPress has its own way of dealing with image sizes. And it's not only the metadata and other database info, the various versions that WP generates has the size suffixed to the file name.
You will probably need to use add_image_size in your theme's functions.php and/or adjust the Media Settings in the administrative panel.
After that, run the plugin Regenerate Thumbnails. And regarding its name, I'll quote the plugin author:
Anything that is not the fullsize image is a thumbnail. Some
thumbnails are just bigger than others. My plugin re-makes all of
them.
