Changing Featured Image Size

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi,

I’ve read posts, pages and recommendations about thumbnails but I don’t think it answers, so here I am 🙂

I have the Newspaper theme, using for my articles the template n°7, with a full width featured image. The problem is that the bloc of this image is in 16/9 and I would like to change it to 4/3.
I’ve tried to modify the thumbnails but it doesn’t change the size of the displayed block, only the quality of the image. So, I don’t know how to change it now 🙂

To be more clear, this is what I have now
In full width template 7

This is the image I would like to have in full width and correct height

Thanks for your help !

Hi,

Then you could use post template style 3, that displays the featured image similar to what you are describing

Hi Simion,

Thanks for your answer.
Actually I would like a full width image, which is not in 16/9. Template 3 doesn’t seem to be full width, see :

Maybe it’s a problem from another setting ?

Hi,

Then you could maybe increase the height of the featured image, in post template 7. If the image used is big enough there should be no problem. This post template has a fixed height of 700px, it could be changed with a code like this

.td-post-template-7 .td-post-header{
height:900px;
}

This code should be entered in Theme panel->Custom code->Advanced CSS, in the desktop section, so it only applies for desktop.
Post template 3 uses a thumbnail for featured image

If it would be stretched with code to full width, the image may not look properly. Try the provided code and it will increase the height of the post header image, in post template 7. Maybe experiment with different values for the height.

Thanks
