 * What’s the use of the “recreate thumbnail” button?
 * I want to recreate the thumbnails of some images, because I had problems in the
   thumb folder… But there’s no way to do it?
 * Also, is there a way to set the first image of the gallery as the cover image?

 * Dear fullbl,
 * Recreate thumbnail is designed for recreating the original thumbnail, which has
   not been affected by editing. But if you have problems with thumbnails, you will
   have to delete the images and re-upload them, since if the thumbnail was not 
   originally created it cannot be recreated.
 * As for the cover image, it will automatically take the first image on the front
   end if you leave it blank. Thank you.
