This looks like it could be helpful, thanks. I don't have CloudFront setup for testing this, so I'll have to do that first... |

Tested April 18, 2018. Works like a charm! :D |

We recently wanted to serve thumbnails via CloudFront for one of our websites, but it appears that pThumb currently only allows you to serve them directly from an S3 bucket. Therefore, we've added two new system settings which allow you to use CloudFront to serve the contents from the S3 output bucket.
In order to use it, you first need to create a new CloudFront web distribution for the S3 bucket in the AWS CloudFront console. Afterwards, you set the system setting pthumb.s3_output_cloudfront to true and point the pthumb.s3_output_cloudfront_url setting to the URL of the CloudFront distribution in the MODX manager.
It would be nice if this could be included in a new release of pThumb. Please let us know if you need any further info!
