Scissors
Continued also gave me the “The plugin generated 192 characters . . .” warning
as well. Im using the Roots theme which endvors to make all links root relative.

* 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.

* This is a site issue – not a plugin one. Try [increasing the memory available to PHP](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/253495#post-1017842).

* 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.
