Slider vs. Featured Image

Hi @ all

Thanks for this Theme!

it’s clear and easy to use! I have a question regarding images for slider and features image …

as you write in your documentation you suggest two image sizes, is it possible to give each post
two image links, so that there is not image cut, what is does if i use Featured Images and upload
the slide_size?

for example, this post here:
http://krieg-und-frieden.org/vortrag-von-prof-harald-seubert/ uses a slider_image_sized Featured imaged, looks great in slider but cuts the type as you see …

You can change featured image size to something like 9999 and 9999 or some other large number, so they won’t be cropped anymore. Current featured images are defined like this via functions.php file.

add_image_size( 'dazzling-featured', 730, 410, true );

Other options is simply replace

<?php the_post_thumbnail( 'dazzling-featured', array( 'class' => 'thumbnail' )); ?>

Inside content-single.php file with something like

<?php 
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it.
	the_post_thumbnail( 'full', array( 'class' => 'thumbnail' ));
} 
?>

This will make sure that full size image without crop will be displayed inside post as well. That will be the exact same image you can see in slider with the same aspect ratio and everything.
