Hi,
By a theme setting that is not possible, the thumbnail sizes and cropping method are predefined.
If it is a block you are referring to, then you could use a flex block, these have width and height settings for the thumbnail

Maybe you can get the result you want with a flex block.
Be sure to check out some block examples made by us using flex blocks

These can be imported with the cloud library plugin – https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
So flex blocks are not an option? They have settings for the images, you could load a bigger thumbnail and use the width/height and position settings

Modifying the cropping method would require that you edit the tagDiv composer files (after update 9.7)
The thumbnails are defined here – http://prntscr.com/nrc4yp
Then the future thumbnails will use the new cropping. The existing thumbnails will have to be regenerated, you can use the plugin mentioned here for example

But I should note that modifications to the plugins will be lost after the theme and plugins are updated.
Hi Simion!
Do you know if its still possible to edit the tagDiv composer files to make it so the thumbnails don’t crop anymore?
I tried following your screenshot but there must have been an update or something and the files moved because I can’t find init.php anywhere.
Thanks!
Hello,
Now the thumbs code can be found in wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/includes/td_config.php -> http://prntscr.com/psluu8
Thank you!
Thank you Calin. This is exactly what I was looking for 🙂
Hi Calin, I tried to edit the td_config.php so I could change the cropping for the td_api_thumb for Module 19 to false, however my file manager won’t let me edit it. It says You cannot open this file because it is either a directory or a file larger than one megabyte (1 MB). To edit the file, download it and use a local editor.
I’m scared to mess my website up by downloading and deleting files. Any suggestions?
