Low Resolution Thumbnail Images

Posted in: Newsmag

Hello,

I purchased the “NewsMag” theme and ALL my thumbnail post pictures are low resolution. This even occurs on brand new post. When the post title is clicked to read the article the image inside the actual post is crispy (The Way it was uploaded).

How Can I retain the clarity of the images I upload for my post as thumbnail pictures? I have also noticed that the images on the DEMO themes are low resolution too?

Can you give me a solution to this issue???

Hi,

The images used on modules are thumbnails generated from the image you upload and set as featured image. This is done to reduce the page size and speed up page loading time. We use a wordpress function – add_image_size() – you can read about it here – https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size – and here – http://www.davidtan.org/wordpress-hard-crop-vs-soft-crop-difference-comparison-example/

You can also read here about the featured image size – https://forum.tagdiv.com/image-size/

The theme thumbs are defined in td_config.php – http://screencast.com/t/nGx92Xe2Q
They can disabled the unused ones from Theme Panel – http://screencast.com/t/3u77QXSKDbK

If you want to display the full image (not recommended because it affects the page load speed) on each module you have to modify the locations on which the image is called and replace the specific thumb id with a wordpress default one – http://screencast.com/t/l4UHDeJhElhttps://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Thumbnails , you can find them here – http://screencast.com/t/GLC8aAznh

Thank you, Emil G.

Note also, if using PHOTON for image thumbnails, this is known to create “crappy” thumbnails.
