Cropped featured images for blog entries

Activello

Hello!

Someone recently asked a question about cropped featured images here: https://colorlibsupport.com/t/cropped-featured-images-for-blog-entries/

I’m having the same issue, but the solution given in the thread above (How to disable featured images auto crop in WordPress – MagniumThemes) uses FTP, which I don’t have access to - any other way to fix this?

Thanks!

Hello there,

I hope you are doing well today.

In order to change that, you need to edit the theme files so you would have to contact your host or try editing the files via Appearance > Editor.

Hi there,

I found the functions file through Appearance > Editor and followed the tutorial, but the featured post image on the home page still isn’t displaying at the correct size - if anything, it’s smaller than it was before (should be larger). It’s still displaying correctly on the post page itself.

See attached - any suggestions?

Hi Noda,

Hi,

Here’s the code:

		  add_image_size( 'activello-featured', 1170, 550, false );
		  add_image_size( 'activello-slider', 1920, 550, false );
		  add_image_size( 'activello-thumbnail', 330, 220, false );
		  add_image_size( 'activello-medium', 640, 480, false );
		  add_image_size( 'activello-big', 710, 335, false );

Thanks!

HI Catena

Is this theme edited? have you done any modification in the theme files?

13

Hi Noda,

The only modifications I’ve made are to the CSS, aside from the above modifications to functions.php.

HI

Can you please enable temporary access plugin once again?

Could someone please look at this before the link expires again? I’ve set up a third link, here - http://catenacrochet.co.uk/wp-admin/?wtlwp_token=65ef861bec4370ecf5d26052a0d46a07 - it expires in 3 days.

Hi @catena

Sorry for the delay and check again

Hi Noda,

Thanks for fixing the image issue, but it looks as though the widgets in the sidebar have now disappeared :confused: See up-thread for screenshots of how it should look.

Hello there,

There are no widgets in the sidebar, please go to Appearance > Widgets and add the widgets back to the sidebar because sadly WordPress does not have a settings to restore sidebars.

Hello,

The original issue (incorrect post image size on home page) seems to have reappeared, but only with the latest post - any idea what’s causing this and how to fix it?

EDIT: On closer inspection, it looks as though the post image size is completely random on the category page, for example - see attached.
