Came bundled with a theme but only works in browser uploader, not in drag-and-drop multi-file uploader. Even then often does not work so it is quicker and more certain to just edit thumbnails by hand individually.

It’s very useful plugin.
I always settting to “top center”.
Usage notes
It seems that it is not set in the media library.

Changelog
1.3
This update were made by Grégory Viguier (ScreenfeedFr). Thanks Grégory.
- The PHP class is now in a separated file, so it is included only in the administration pages (and removed the create_function(), bad for the php cache).
- Globally, use a more “WordPress way” for some parts of the code.
- SECURITY: better sanitization of the option, check user capability, and add a nonce for the ajax call.
- Minify css, js and images (js and css dev. versions still presents).
- HTML: remove useless divs, adjust some classes.
- CSS: use existing WordPress styles for the buttons, simpler but same look.
- JS: no more inline scripts (onclick), change button active state only on valid response, add a loading state.
- Translation: use native translations (left, right, center) and add French translation.
