 * My thumnbnails are poor quality. I love the plugin but this is a major issue 
   for my client.
 * I’ve tried following the lead on other topics where this issue is raised and 
   none of the solutions seem to work. I’ve set the thumbnail quality to 80, 90 
   and 100 with no result. I’ve refreshed all of my thumbnails and that hasn’t helped
   either.
 * This page shows the issue to good effect: [http://georginahooper.com.au/2016/09/undaunted/](http://georginahooper.com.au/2016/09/undaunted/)
 * FooGallery version : 1.2.15

 * Have you tried clearing optimization cache after setting thumbnail quality to
   100?

 * Thanks for your reply. I’ve just run an thumbnail regenerator again. Will that
   have the same effect?
 * I’ve also cleared the cache on my browser. No effect tho – the thumbnails are
   still poor quality.
 * I uploaded new images for the shop and that made the world of difference there.
   I’m linking to the same images in the FooGallery and the thumbnails remain poor
   quality.

 * I mean this option:

    – i’m not saying, that it will fix it for sure but i remember having same issue
   some time ago and setting thumbnail quality to 100 and using that function fixed
   my problem. The problem occured after wordpress migration.
 * Also try removing cache created by foogallery manually(wp-content/uploads/cache/
   plugins/foogallery).

 * Sorry to hear that :\ You might also try removing hard crop for thumbnails and
   see how the plugin will react.

 * I just noticed too that the thumbnails within the back end of Foo Gallery are
   low quality too. Could this be linked?

 * If you mean preview, then i think it takes image from cache folder, same as output
   in front end.
 * You are not using any cache plugin like W3TC by any chance?

 * No. I have run EWWW image optimiser. I just installed Envira and it seems to 
   be working fine.
 * I was very happy with FooGallery otherwise tho and would happily switch back.
   The thumbnails were a major issue for the client tho.

 * I understand.
 * btw. you haven’t mentioned – this issue was since the beginning(i.e. after installing
   foogallery), or it just appeared after some time?

 * It was from the outset and only with FooGallery… I’m a bit of noob so couldn’t
   do too much deeper level problem solving.
