There are times when you may want to change the thumbnail or featured
image dimensions in your current WordPress theme or you may have
planned to switch to a new theme. In both of these cases, you would feel
the need of regenerating thumbnails, compatible to new dimensions. In
this post, we have shared a plugin called Regenerate Thumbnails, which allows you to regenerate the new thumbnails after changing the thumbnail sizes in WordPress.
This plugin is very useful if you have changed the thumbnail dimensions (sizes) recently in WordPress (Settings » Media) or if you have switched to a new theme, which is having different thumbnail (featured image) dimensions.
You will be able to configure the plugin's settings for your own particular needs by doing the following:
The plugin will then regenerate new image sizes as defined by your theme or on the Settings > Media page
Regenerate Thumbnails by other plugin
find the AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild to be better than the regenerate thumbnails plugin, because it doesn't tie up your server as bad, allows you to skip certain sizes (which saves time), and gives more visual feedback.
