I've just uploaded many items via the Bulk Upload facility using Excel spreadsheets, and find that for SOME ONLY of the new listings, the thumbnail image shown on multi-item pages (e.g. searches, shops) has not been generated and instead the 'no image' / 'camera' placeholder image is being used. It's possible (probable!) that for a few of these items I think images exist when they don't, but this has happened on 10% or so of my listings. This isn't a one-off. The same thing happened last time I uploaded listings.
* They're all listed in the same way, using the same syntax etc., so (so long as the image really does exist) there doesn't seem any reason why the missing ones shouldn't have been created
* When I go into listings that aren't showing a thumbnail, the image from which a thumbnail SHOULD have been created is showing so I know, on the ones I've checked so far at least, that the image does exist
* When I edit a listing individually - actually not really editing it, just going into the edit mode and then saving it again - the thumbnail image is created and appears
* When I go into a listing that isn't showing a thumbnail, do nothing, but then return to the multi-listing page it's on, it still doesn't show an image next to the listing, but an image for it IS shown in my 'Recently Viewed' list at the bottom of the page!
Is there a way anyone knows of to regenerate these thumbnails automatically, rather than going in to individual listings and editing? I've just uploaded 2000+ items, so it would be a lot to look at and edit if necessary one at a time!
Many thanks in anticipation
