A post-processing error is generated when uploading JPG, PNG, or other image media in WordPress. An example of this error is Post-processing of the image failed. If this is a photo or a large image, please scale it down to 2500 pixels and upload it again.
The "Post-processing of the image failed" error in WordPress typically occurs when there is an issue with processing or manipulating images uploaded to the website. This error message indicates that an image file could not be resized, cropped, or modified as intended during the post-processing stage.
This is often related to not logging out of the dashboard after an update is completed and in some cases is related to NGINX caching.
