Image Sizes Panel

See all available image sizes for any image and copy URLs with one click. No more digging through your uploads folder or guessing size dimensions.

Use Cases

  • Direct URL with one-click copy button

FAQ

Why don’t I see all my custom sizes?Custom sizes must be registered before the image was uploaded. Sizes added after upload won’t appear until you regenerate thumbnails using the Regenerate Thumbnails module.
Can I copy multiple URLs at once?Currently, you copy one URL at a time. For bulk URL needs, consider using a media export plugin or direct database query.
Why are some sizes missing for certain images?If the original image is smaller than a registered size, WordPress doesn’t upscale it. A 500px wide original won’t have a 1024px “Large” version.
Does this work with non-image files?No. The panel only appears for image attachments (JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF). PDFs, documents, and other files don’t have thumbnail sizes.
Are the URLs permanent?URLs remain valid as long as the image exists and isn’t renamed. If you rename the file using the Media Rename module, the URLs will change.
Can I see image sizes in the block editor?This panel is in the media library interface. In the block editor, use the Image block’s size selector, which also shows available sizes.
