I just installed NewsPaper and configuring with my existing blog. I turned on the image resizing into required size and working fine. My problem, this theme is resizing all articles images into this different sizes. Where can I resize only featured image? Where is the setting to resize only featured images and leave other content images as is?

Hello,

We do not recommend resizing images with any external plugins or tools. Our theme does not have any re-sizing options except the theme thumbnail system that will crop images, but not enlarge them. Please do not use any re-sizing options with our theme as this is not tested and It could break the layout. Our theme has no resizing options so i cannot provide any solution for resizing only the featured images.

Thank you!

I am referring tagdiv https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/.

I’m bit confused here and wondering what is exactly resizing images into these multiple sizes. I uploaded an article with featured and content images after installing this theme. I saw all those images (featured and content) created into multiple sizes.

What plugin/theme part generating these thumb image sizes?
How can I limit these thumb images only for featured image?

Hello,

Unfortunately you cannot limit the thumb system just for the featured image. Sorry. This system will create the thumbs for all images as the theme has no sway of knowing which image you will use as featured and which one you will not. The thumb system creates the thumbs when uploading an image in the media library as that is the only way it can. You set it as featured after that step so there is no simple way of removing the image sizes for the other images. What you can do however to lit space on your server, is to disable any unused thumbs from the theme panel. Make an assessment of your site and write down the elements that you use and only use thumbs for those particular elements. You can use the guide you pointed to learn what module uses which thumb so you can deactivate the unused ones.

I hope this helps.

Thank you!
