the featured image is 696*379 in size and i am using the BigGrid Slide, there are gaps between image and border in grey. However, if I switch to the Slide module, the image fits perfectly.
Is there any special setting I am missing here?
Hi
The size that you indicated for your image is to small to fit the entire space from first thumb of big grid slide. As the image to fit well in that thumb must have an size at least by 741 X 486.
The slide it’s built in a different way, meaning that the image is stretched by css and even if is smaller than the slide surface, it will be displayed fine.
You can try this css to stretch the image on the entire surface of the thumb, but this may affect its quality:
.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-thumb .td-module-thumb img{
width: 100%;
eight: 100%;
}
Thanks!
if I update the featured image size to 741 X 486, will your post template display the image in a such big form?
if so, it will be too big for the featured image.
how did you do for you demo page? how can I make it to be same as your demo?
Hello,
The featured image can be as big as you want. The bigger it is, the better quality the thumbnail will be. The featured image has a thumbnail of it’s own so a big picture will not be displayed in it’s full size but ion a thumbnail.
For example on our demo you can see this picture with the 2 girls on the homepage. The image size is pretty big: http://screencast.com/t/qFVF39uU and the theme creates thumbnails for it in every particular case post featured image, module featured image, etc.
I hope this helps.
Thanks.
Also, various plugins like “thumbnail upscale” can help when you regenerate your thumbs to “enlarge, crop, fit” … which might help.
it is good to know all of this and helpful, thanks guys.
now I am using the style3 of post template, will the big featured image be displayed in a thumbnail form as well?

this is the style3 with the featured image in size of 696*379, you can see that it is already very big. If I use a large image, I could imagine that the page will be covered by entire image. In style3 will the featured image also be displayed in a thumbnail format?
Hi,
All post styles use thumbnails so a large image will only fit as the theme intends it to. It will not stretch to the full width or height of the image itself. You can see this behavior on our official demo and check a few styles to see how the featured images will be displayed: http://screencast.com/t/GD8fo7xs – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/
Thank you!
now I see. Thanks mate.
I can see that there is a lightbox in your demo and it can navigate to different images appeared in the post, but my one can only display the 1st featured image.
is there a special setting for this?
another random question, I can see there is an author avatar on the demo page. do you use a plugin to do this or you have your own avatar module in the theme?
and how to use tagGallery and videolist in the post just like your demo? is there a document I can read?
I have just updated the featured image size to 800*546, it appeared as I mentioned above, it covered almost whole page, check this http://www.screencast.com/t/59gFJVm18K4o and this http://www.screencast.com/t/JwzPBktuVXzB
it should be displayed in a thumbnail form but it seems showing whole image. any idea?
Hi,
1)You must have the lightbox selected from the theme panel so all images will receive a lightbox: http://screencast.com/t/bbxnPvICz
2) We use a plugin named WP User Avatar.
3) You can check this section of our docs: https://forum.tagdiv.com/gallery-2/ and https://forum.tagdiv.com/video-playlist-2/
4) Please provide a link to your website so we can inspect the issue (if login will be required, do not post the information here as it is a public forum. You can send it to contact@tagdiv.com along with a link to this topic)
Thank you!
the lightbox worked,thanks mate. I have sent you an email with link to the post, username and password.
I have been told to upload the image as big size(1688*1152) as your demo and I have tried, but the featured image was still same. No any changes. Besides, in your demo the height is only 500 more pixels, but my one is 729 pixels.
how can I fix this?
