The thumb() function seems to have no effect

Hello

I would like to get cropped square thumbnail for every image uploaded from the panel with a size of 400x400px. the tumb() and resize() functions doesn’t seem to work.
I apparently have the same kind of problem as documented in this thread but i don’t find any solution.

I have tried this autoresize plugin without any success.

My current settings are :

return [
    'thumbs' => [
        'driver'    => 'im', // I also tried gd driver
        'quality'   => 90,
        'presets' => [
            'default' => ['width' => 400, 'quality' => 90, 'crop' => true],
        ]
    ]
]

this is my blueprint for the image part :

thumbnail:
  type: files
  label: Album cover
  info : Ne s'affiche que si le lien Bandcamp n'est pas renseigné.
  layout : cards
  query: page.images
  uploads:
    template: image
  image:
    back: white
  multiple: false

In my code i try to get the thumbnail url with :

$thumbnail = $article->thumbnail()->toFile()->thumb()->url();

I guess something is happening because I get the URL with these parameters at the end : “400x-crop-1-q90.jpg”
The problem is the result image isn’t modified at all, it is just the full size image without any modification.

I checked and imagick extension is activated server side. Am I doing something wrong ?

Thank you for your help : )

Have you checked with phpinfo if gd is enabled?

for the im driver, you might have to add the path to the convert binary in your config.

Thank your for your quick answer, yes i just checked and gd is also activated, i just gave it a new try and i get the exact same result

Have you also tried to do pass parameters explicitly?

if ($thumbnail =  $article->thumbnail()->toFile() ) {
  echo $thumbnail->crop(400,400);
}

Okay, your link gave me the solution :

I just had to allow exec on from my hosting panel.

Thank you so much : )
