Add your own thumb generator not working about kirby HOT 2 CLOSED

It sounds what you are experiencing is the result of Kirby's async thumb generation.

When the initial requests runs Kirby's code, it's not the thumb component, but the file::version component getting called. Which creates .job files with all the instruction for the required modifications to the image (also name etc.).

When the actual image URL is then called, Kirby looks up if there is an already processed thumb available, or - if not - if a .job file is present. With the info from the job file, it then runs the thumb component to generate the actual thumb file.

But this is why you won't see your initial request be interrupted by die() as the thumb component will only be called on the individual image requests, not the main request.
