Whoops – found another while testing on my MAMP setup.
This was an alert while cropping a particular custom size:
The javascript alert also wasn’t processing the bold and break tags in the code.
<b>Fatal error</b>: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 13020 bytes) in <b>/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/tr_wordpress/wp-content/plugins/scissors-watermark/scissors-and-watermark.php</b> on line <b>62</b>
This is a site issue – not a plugin one. Try increasing the memory available to PHP.
Oops, sure enough – but the first two issues are not memory based.
Sorry. I should have said that I’m not associated with this plugin in any way. I just spotted your memory issue. Is the plugin behaving itself otherwise? What about the site generally? Any problems?
None really, it seems to work as advertised. Im a bit spooked by the unexpected output – and the broken variable, makes me wonder about the code integrity.
I’ve also played with “Post Thumbnail Editor” which is what Im after really. What I like about Scissors is that it lets you create the crop for each pre defined thumbnail size at the time of upload, where Post Thumbnail Editor makes you do it in the Media tab – less intuitive for users I think.
The warnings/notices you are seeing imply that there are some minor issues in the plugin and that parts of it may even need rewriting to conform to wordpress.org plugin/coding standards. If you find the plugin useful, I’d just keep an eye on it for now, If you hit any site problems further down the line – especially any “headers already sent” messages – start by deactivating it (by FTP if necessary).
If it were just for me, I’d agree – but as its for a friend, and I may not be able to fix it later, I’ll go for the more shepherded Post Thumbnail Editor. Scissors has had several developers take it over already. In my mind its a great addition, just needs to be flushed though, and perhaps given a face lift.
Its too (at least as I’ve yet to see) no one has figured a way to modify the functionality of the media editor itself. Presently you only have the option to apply crop changes to “all images”, “thumbnail”, and “all sizes except thumbnail”. If custom post sizes were listed here it would cover the gap Im trying to address.
