mediaUrl method for thumbs image returns null

Don’t know if it’s a bug or what else, but there are a few methods of $file object that returns null value when $file is a thumb. Code:

$thumb = $image->thumb(['crop' => true, 'width' => 1080, 'height'  => 1350, 'format' => 'webp', 'quality' => 90]);

echo $thumb->mediaUrl(); //returns null
echo $thumb->contentFileDirectory(); //returns null
echo $thumb->mediaRoot(); //returns null

Is there any reason?
Thanks

Yes, these are methods of the Kirby\Cms\File object, and a thumb is a FileVersion object, which has these methods: FileVersion | Kirby CMS

What are you trying to do?

@texnixe you’re wonderful.

I’m using the thumb() method to scale and convert an image, but I need to save it down after the thumb is generated.

Thank you so much
Francesco

Ok, so you can get the original file (and all its properties) via $fileversion->original() | Kirby CMS
