Using this dropdown you should be able to select any existing container or create a new one. * If this does not work the credentials you entered likely do not have sufficient permissions. * Could you provide a screenshot of your settings screen with private data obfuscated? * Thanks Thorsten * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Microsoft Azure Storage for WordPress] Can’t generate thumbnail](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-generate-thumbnail/) * Plugin Support [Thorsten Ott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tott/) * (@tott) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-generate-thumbnail/#post-9595078) * Hi Isaiah, * sadly I’m not familiar with the Boal theme you’re using on this site but I’m assuming they are using a custom method to deal with thumbnail generation within the theme that does not follow the WordPress standards and therefore does not provide the necessary hooks for the plugin to act upon. * Given that this is closed source code I can’t tell you much more than this. Maybe take a closer look at the theme code and see if you can figure out how thumbnails are built. * I hope this helps * Thorsten * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Microsoft Azure Storage for WordPress] SAS Token Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sas-token-support/) * Plugin Support [Thorsten Ott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tott/) * (@tott) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sas-token-support/#post-9532144) * Hi, * we do not support this currently, but I’d like to encourage you to open a feature request at [https://github.com/10up/windows-azure-storage/issues](https://github.com/10up/windows-azure-storage/issues) for further consideration. * Best Thorsten * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Microsoft Azure Storage for WordPress] CDN Configuration](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cdn-configuration/) * Plugin Support [Thorsten Ott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tott/) * (@tott) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cdn-configuration/#post-9532137) * Hi Ashivn, * the CNAME setting should work in this regard.

Are the changes reflected in your settings after you reload the webserver? I’m a little bit worried as you have two system.webServer sections now and I’m not 100% sure if this is a supported format for IIS * Best Thorsten * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Microsoft Azure Storage for WordPress] HTTP error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/http-error-99/) * Plugin Support [Thorsten Ott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tott/) * (@tott) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/http-error-99/#post-8453663) * Hi [@setevoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/setevoy/), * could you try to increase the uploadReadAheadSize to a more reasonable value. Especially when working over SSL this limit can be reached pretty quickly and I think. I’d suggest setting a value of around 10 MB to align with your 8MB upload limits. * Please let me know if this solves the issue * Thanks Thorsten * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Microsoft Azure Storage for WordPress] HTTP error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/http-error-99/) * Plugin Support [Thorsten Ott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tott/) * (@tott) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/http-error-99/#post-8445381) * Hi [@setevoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/setevoy/), * that would not help at this point. I was hoping to identify if the uploads issue is actually related to the azure storage plugin or a more general issue. Just changing the settings would not help us to identify this. * Let’s see what the settings reveal. * Best Thorsten * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Microsoft Azure Storage for WordPress] HTTP error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/http-error-99/) * Plugin Support [Thorsten Ott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tott/) * (@tott) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/http-error-99/#post-8445192) * Hi [@setevoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/setevoy/), * can you give us some insights on your IIS settings especially uploadReadAheadSize and maxRequestEntityAllowed * [https://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/serverruntime](https://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/serverruntime) * Also the maxAllowedContentLength limit might be of interest as per * [https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/azureossds/2016/06/15/uploading-large-files-to-azure-web-apps/](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/azureossds/2016/06/15/uploading-large-files-to-azure-web-apps/) * In addition, can you confirm that uploads are working if you disable the azure storage plugin? * Thanks Thorsten - This reply was modified 9 years, 7 months ago by [Thorsten Ott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tott/).
