Hi, today I change my thumbnail size, so I did a regenerate thumbnails, some got genereated to the new size, but some still stay the old size. And I got this message :

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/cbtoday/public_html/includes/functions.php on line 139

I tried turn off the ping addon, still the same. help pls.

when thumbsgenerating is active, PING Addon is not involved

you may have a lot of thumbs to be regenerated
many images must be processed and stored
in this time, the server reaches the execution-time-limitation which is configured at your host

so: too many images to be processed + a timelimit set => maximum execution time exceeded

at your server this timeout is set to 30 seconds which is a reasonable limit

so, ask your hoster to set another limit, maybe for a short time or create the thumbs locally and re-upload them

remember: this limitation is to keep the host active and alive and able to respond to request, it is set for stabilty and safety
there are reasons for this limitations

good luck!
