[How to] Customize Thumbnail Size & Position

Sparkling

Hi ,
How can I get rid of the 750x410 featured image that is displayed above the content area ?
Instead I need a 220x220 Featured Image to be displayed right aligned to the Post and not above.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi @makingbig,

I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.

Do you want to make this change on the posts listings page like blog page or on the single post page or on both?

Please advise.

Kind Regards,
Movin

Thanks for your reply Moving.

I want it on both pages - blog page as well as single post.

Best regards.

Hi @makingbig,

Thank you for your reply.

You can try achieving this using the small custom plugin attached to this reply.

Thanks Movin. That Plugin did help me.
The Images right now appear right aligned to the Title. can I move it somewhat below so that it is aligned to the content rather than the title.

For eg: I want like this,( but right aligned )- https://colorlib.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/sparkling-featured-image.jpg

Right now it’s appearing like the attached image.

Hi @makingbig,

You can try achieving this using the attached child theme of Sparkling theme that contains some custom code.

Thanks for the custom Solutions that you have provided above - The Plugin and child theme.
Really appreciate the way you are helping out.

Movin after installing the child theme.

  1. Home Page shows full content even after selecting ‘Excerpts’ under Customization.
  2. The thumbnail shows just perfect at home page - http://makingbig.com/ but on the Post page it shows like the previous attached image only , right aligned with the Title , see - makingbig.com

Hi @makingbig,

1. Home Page shows full content even after selecting ‘Excerpts’ under Customization.

It’s working fine for me using shared child theme.

Have you made any changes in the shared child theme?

Is it working fine for you using Sparkling theme instead of shared child theme?

2. The thumbnail shows just perfect at home page – http://makingbig.com/ but on the Post page it shows like the previous attached image only , right aligned with the Title , see – http://makingbig.com/13-reasons-why-im-not-rich-secrets-revealed/

Could you please try using the attached updated version of Child theme to achieve it?

Best Regards,
