I have regular wordpress galleries in quite a few of my posts. They are set to 1 column and image size is “full” but when displayed in the theme (post) the images seemed to be restricted vertically to a height of 385 – so all the pictures looked different sizes instead of filling the post area.
While running the recommended “thumbnail regenerate” plugin, now the gallery I was experimenting with shows as giant cropped thumbnails. How do I get the theme to just recognize the wordpress gallery as it is without manipulating the pictures sizes or cropping?
Thanks
Hi,
Please try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. Our theme does not alter the wordpress image gallery. You can set the image dimensions from here: http://screencast.com/t/knYTb3jp7K

Thanks.
Yes, as you illustrate here: http://screencast.com/t/knYTb3jp7K the image dimensions are set to “full” and they used to fill up the entire post area proportionally. Now they are all being cropped as giant thumbnails. I tried deactivating all the plugins – didn’t work. Also just tried turning off all the the “Thumbs on module blocks” and didn’t work. What could be cropping all my pics to 696 x 385? One of my posts: http://www.cruisingoutpost.com/2016/06/cruising-outposters-30-pictures/
This is how the images look in the wp editor (just the first two, all I could screen capture) and how they should (and used to) look like in the post. You can see how they are not cropped. http://www.cruisingoutpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/images.jpg
Hi,
Upon further investigation in this matter, there seems to be a thumb used on the galleries. You can remove this thumb by commenting out or deleting this code:

Thank you!
I deleted the code but it didn’t change. Images are still cropped. I even tried viewing it in a browser that I hadn’t used to look at the site before in case it was in browser cache.
O.K., it just started working. Maybe the delay had something to do with my hosting. Looks great – thanks for the fast response. I didn’t need to switch back to my old theme. Really glad I went with Newspaper. Thanks again.
I just upgraded to version 9 and am having the same issue. Removed the code, but there must have been an auto-update that overwrote it again. Is there a new way in 9 to stop my “full size” gallery images from being cropped???
Hello COutpost,
Notice that all of the images will be cropped according to the module thumbs used by you.
Thanks.
I didn’t see a module thumb setting for displaying “full size” images in a WP gallery. I did remove the code as specified here http://screencast.com/t/mXRDOVcXS and they are displaying full size now without cropping. Just wondered if there was a way to do this so when the theme updates, I don’t have to remove the code again. Thanks.
Hello COutpost,
You can try using the Child Theme set up according to our documentation from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Thanks for your understanding!
