Plugin not replacing the upload plugin

[Dirvann]

strapi-version: 4.10.7, but also tested with 4.10.5 lang: typescript

• I added the strapi-server.js file in src/extensions/upload/strapi-server.js

• I copied the typescript code that had to be put in there :

  
  const imageManipulation = require("strapi-plugin-responsive-image/server/services/image-manipulation");

export default (plugin) => { plugin.services["image-manipulation"] = imageManipulation();

return plugin; };

- I ran `npm run build` and started the server
- I changed a few options like the name of the formats and output format in the settings of the plugin
- When uploading a new file only the standard (small, medium, large, thumbnail) sizes from the upload plugin are present. 

I also tried with the js version in strapi-server.js but also not having an effect

## Expected behavior
- the files are in the format set in responsive image plugin

should be a .ts file when using typescript, no?

@svenruegg Thanks for the reply.

The upload plugin actually has a js file, in the readme it also sais to just use a js file for typescript. But I also tried with .ts but that also did not have any effect.

Hi @Dirvann

Ok, that's a pity. I am using the ts version as well and your script looks like mine. I am using Strapi 4.11.0 though where it works but don't think that thats the problem.

Have you tried to delete the node modules folder and the package.lock.json and run npm i again?

[Dirvann]

Oh good to hear that it works, i will try again with version 4.10.8 ( because for some reason there is an issue when I upgrade to 4.11).

I'll just remove all node_modules and reinstall

[Dirvann]

@svenruegg Thanks! It worked

I upgraded to 4.11.0.

• removed node_modules
• removed package-lock
• installed packages
• ran the build
• changed the file type to .ts Then it worked!

So a good refresh was needed

Thanks for the help!
