### 󠀁[Not Replacing the enlarged image](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/not-replacing-the-enlarged-image/)󠁿

 [Tony Hisir](https://profiles.wordpress.org/copperrefections/) april 19, 2022

Hi, I love your plugin. Thank you. We have about 2,000 images that we would like
to replace with higher resolution ones. Your plugin is replacing the image nicely
with the new High-Resolution one for the product but it is not replacing the enlarged
one. When clicked on the product image, it looks all pixelated. It is still using
the old, low-resolution one and when it enlarges the low resolution bigger image
looks pixelated. How can I fix this? It will also be great if it deletes the old,
replaced ones. Thanks, Tony

Simple and straightforward. Although I wish there was a bulk replace option.

<!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=””>Previous review was “Doesn’t always replace other
sizes.”</p> <!– /wp:paragraph –> <!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=””>Tried this plugin
again. This time it just didn’t work at all. Drag and drop to replace did not work,
and then when I had the image selected, clicking the button to continue did nothing.
