Carousel featured image size

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi there,

Every time I upload a featured image it doesn’t stretch to the whole area on the front page – see http://www.janet-love.com

Is there a way to ensure the main image is auto-resized to take up the whole of the header carousel?

Hi,

Your image width must be at least 745x483 as you can see on our demo – http://screencast.com/t/Ohpp7LDCNPwx to fill the whole container. If your featured image is smaller, please note that WordPress doesn’t enlarge images and you will need to use plugin like Thumbnail Upscale to enlarge thumbnails: https://wordpress.org/plugins/thumbnail-upscale/ For upscale use a combination of plugins Thumbnail Upscale + Force Regenerate.

Or you can enlarge it via custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/JfylXNZ08G

.td_block_big_grid .td-big-grid-post-0 .entry-thumb {
width: 100%;
}

Thanks!

Is this the same in Newspaper 6?

Hi,

In Newspaper 6 depends on what Big grid do you use. Do you use Big Grid Slide? – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-slide/
Please provide a link if you have issues with it, also you can try this customn css instead the above:

.td-big-grid-slide .td-big-grid-post-0 .entry-thumb {
width: 100%;
}

Thanks!

Hi,

Please regenerate your thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ you don’t have to use custom css if your images are large enough to be cropped.

Thanks!

Yes also got an issue now in Newspaper 6. The image isn’t big enough but I want to stretch it and the above code doesn’t seem to work.

Hi,


@dazburn
Please try this custom css as the above code is for Big Grid Slide and you use Big Grid 2 – http://screencast.com/t/lstMuEXTHly

.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-grid-post-0 .entry-thumb {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}

Thanks!
