Not interchangeable from standard image field #3

It should be easy to swap between a standard image field and a crop image field, both for improving old sites and for removing this plugin if necessary.

Good point. The problem is, that the way the two fields store data is different. This field stores a json-enconded object containing both the original and the cropped image ids, while the built in image field stores just the plain id.

It should be possible to make the transition from the regular image field to the crop field, though.

I'll look into that.

+1 for this as well. My use case involves Codepress Admin Columns. The image won't work with these custom columns: https://wordpress.org/plugins/codepress-admin-columns/

The new update makes it possible to migrate from a standard image field to the crop field without losing images. It is still not possible to migrate backwards.
