Hello,

Iv been trying to change the size of my thumbnail images in ,my site feeds.

Problem
I get thumbnail sizes of 100 x 65 for all my feed items. which i want to change to a custom size

Tried
1.I tried changing the image size in the wordpress media settings, but nothing changed
2. I tried installing multiple plugins to help me change this but nothing worked.
3.I researched the wordpress codex but i was told to come here
4.If searched through the template settings i cant see any setting that controls this.

Question
I want to know where i can change the default thumbnail size of 100 x65 to something else

Hi,

It seems that the image used for your rss feed is the 'thumbnail' size image which dimensions you can set from WordPress media settings: http://screencast.com/t/cAzwvJywUGS
I’ve also did a research on this and found out that the changes need some time to apply so I suggest you make your changes then give it some time to update.
You can also try to use this filter in your functions file and set it to use one fo the thumb’s that theme creates for each image: http://screencast.com/t/veGfKV1Jf
Here is the filter code: http://pastebin.com/s3wBWjwT
Please let me know!

Thanks

Hi,

I’m not sure if the image thumb is added by default by WordPress or not so if you have added it yourself then you just need to remove that code which you used to add it if not then I suggest to use the thumbnail image size from media settings to set the size for your images: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ then regenerate thumbnail: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
After this without using the code in the function file the image size for feeds should be at the sizes you want.
Please let me know and also provide your site’s URL so I can check this.

Thanks
