Hello,

Can you help me out with how to change the thumbnail size on the mobile homepage (mobile plugin is activated)?
This is my website – https://monkeysfightingrobots.co/
As you can see from the desktop version we use a vertical featured image.
Thank you for your time and help.

Hi,

The mobile theme uses predefined thumb sizes, they can’t be changed, but basically all the thumbs the theme creates are cropped center top. This was decided to be the best overall solution.

There are ways to add a custom thumb and crop it differently
https://forum.tagdiv.com/td_api_thumbadd/
and then modify the mobile theme modules to use that thumb. Or update the existing thumb

This would be the only way to display differnttly cropped thumbs in the mobile theme modules.

Thanks

Simion,

Thank you for your help.

What module is the mobile theme homepage?

Would I put the new code in the custom code section of the Mobile Theme of the Newspaper Theme panel?

Thank you again for your help.

Hi,

The mobile theme uses 2 modules, they are located in the composer plugin
https://prnt.sc/r41x8o
They are set to display 2 thumb sizes, from the ones the theme creates automatically. One for the grids and one for the smaller module.

I should note that the modifications required for this will have to be made in the composer files, that is the only way to change the thumb the mobile modules use. This means that the modifications will be lost after a theme update and will have to be made again.

Thanks

Simion,

What would the code look like if I wanted to change it?

When I plug in numbers I end up getting no images showing up.

Thank you for your time with this, I do appreciate it.

Hi,

That depend on what you want to do, if you want to change the image/thumb you need to set a different size also is need some custom work, the sizes can be seen in theme panel -> https://i.imgur.com/DTXkYMl.png also please notice that those implementations are not covered by the team support -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/support-policy-2/
