    I love the fact core files don’t need editing but I have discovered it now watermarks thumbnails as you can see in This post
    Is there a way of only being able to watermark full images.
    Also though not so important my preview is not working running Version 0.9 on WP 3.5.1
    Thanks merekkis

    Hi Pantyscoop,

    usually the pictures should be re sized and the watermark should be inserted in the re sized pic. But if you need the other way, then you can make a small change in wm_functions.php file. At the bottom on this file you have to replace:

    Select Code
    1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9

    add_filter('wp_generate_attachment_metadata', 'mm_applyWatermark');
function mm_applyWatermark($data) {
    $udir = wp_upload_dir();
    foreach ($data['sizes'] as $datas) {
        MM_Execute_WM($udir['path']."/".$datas['file'],'');
    }
    MM_Execute_WM($udir['basedir']."/".$data['file'],'');
    return $data;
}

    with

    Select Code
    1
2
3
4
5
6

    add_filter('wp_generate_attachment_metadata', 'mm_applyWatermark');
function mm_applyWatermark($data) {
    $udir = wp_upload_dir();
    MM_Execute_WM($udir['basedir']."/".$data['file'],'');
    return $data;
}

    This will watermark only your original file not all the re-sized pics.

    If you have still problems, feel free to contact me. I’ll be happy about comments and ratings on: wordpress.org/extend/plugins/marekkis-watermark

    Thank you,
    Marekki.

    ps. If you have problems with preview you can uninstall this plugin, remove the files and install once more. This can help, otherwise you have a caching problem. in this case you have to press F5 to reload the page and to see the preview.

    Now I’m working on a ajax version, but psst! is a secret! ;)

    Hi Marekki
    Did as you suggested but now its not watermaking at all, I did alter the compression value from 100 to 80 because the image was 3x the original file size, but the edit is as above.
    Thanks

    the file size increases 3 time after addition of watermark. Is there any solution to this,

    Hi dev,

    the quality of the output file is set to 100%. This is the reason, why the file size is so big. I have this in focus for the next update. At moment you can change this only in code. So find in the file: marekkis-watermark/wm_functions.php the following lines

    Select Code
    1
2

    switch(exif_imagetype($file)) {
        case 2: ImageJPEG($photoImage,$file,100);break;

    and remove “,100“. so you need only:

    Select Code
    1
2

    switch(exif_imagetype($file)) {
        case 2: ImageJPEG($photoImage,$file);break;

    After this the quality of the watermarked images will by stay at default and the size of your pictures change minimally.

    Best Wishes,
    Marekki.

    Hi courses,

    sorry, but at this moment it’s not possible to save IPTC-data while watermarking. But this is not a big deal, so I’ll try to realize this in the new release.

    Sorry,
    Marekki.

    Nice plugin, I used to spend hours together to put watermark on images. My website has thousands of images on it. Thanks. Hats off to you and really a useful plugin for everyone who uses lots of pictures on their websites.
