Multiple Image Sizes

Posted in: Newspaper

I’m not sure why but for every image we upload to our server it’ll crunch it down as normal but then produce 22 (yes 22!!) different variations of size. Any ideas where i can change which thumbnails sizes it creates?

I’m not sure if this is a plugin issue or if it’s the newspaper theme default?

Tx in advance lovely community of legends.

Hi,

That will be the case. The theme can produce a total of 19 thumbnail size, when they are enabled in the theme panel
https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
These thumbs are used on blocks/modules. They can be disabled and they will not be created anymore. Disable the ones that are not needed. Next to each size it is specified which elements use it

WordPress also creates 3 sizes, you could disable those like this

Note that the WordPress thumbnail size may be used by the theme in some cases, module 16 uses it for example.

Thanks

Awesome thanks for your help. Somehow we’ve hit 1 million files on our server which is 1&1’s limit (who knows why?!) and having 22 files per image probably isnt helping our cause.

Thanks!
