Dear Support,
I’m building my first blog with Newspaper 8.
I’m having some troubles about the featured images dimensions. In the manual it’s clearly explained that images are cropped with a center top logic, but sometimes i’m not happy about the result. There’s a fast way to detect the actual size of the image displayed in the frontend in relation to the layout that i chose, so that i can resize the image to show exactly as i want?
Then… do you suggest to work on a child version of Newspaper?
Thanks!
Daniele
Hello,
No, we do not recommend using a child theme unless you plan on code modifications in the php file. that is the one and only scenario a child theme should be used for. You do not need it otherwise.
As for the images, please note that each block uses a different thumbnail to show the images. You can check the different thumb sizes used in our theme here: https://www.screencast.com/t/zH5FMYs9
Thank you!
