Hi, the "Enable Thumbnails Generation" parameter does not have any such feature - to delete all existing thumbnails. Try to see other parameters in your Phoca Gallery options.

There is one parameter "Clean Thumbnails" in Phoca Gallery options which search for unused thumnails (only when original does not exist):

but even this parameter does not remove thumbnails when there are original images.

When you start to create thumbnail manually, then of course, this process first needs to remove current thumbnails and then create new ones for the current image.

You say: "When you start to create thumbnail manually, then of course, this process first needs to remove current thumbnails and then create new ones for the current image."

OK. And when you do that if the "Enabele Thumbnails Generation" is set to No, it removes the current thumbnails (and then tells you that the new thumbnails have been created).

To my opinion, it shouldn't remove anything when "Enabele Thumbnails Generation" is set to No!
