Generated image sizes can now be published while the original stays protected — for a photo site where the gallery is open to everyone and the full resolution is not.
- Tick the sizes anyone may see under “Image sizes anyone may see” on the settings tab. The original and the
-scaledcopy of a large upload are never among them. - Which size a file is comes from what WordPress recorded when it generated it, not from the numbers in the file name, so a size that does not crop cannot leak through a coincidental match.
- This only widens access inside the protected scope: an excluded extension or folder is still decided first, and a per-file exception still overrides everything.
- Fixed: generated sizes of an image large enough to have been scaled on upload did not resolve back to their attachment, so the “follow the parent post” mode treated them as belonging to no post.
