Why so many image sizes

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 1

I have installed a test of newspaper on my localhost and am running php5.3.13 with GD2 installed, wp v4. I have set my Media settings to 100×65, 326×235 and 700×357. However, when I upload a 745×483 image multiple sizes are being created that do not match up with the sizes you detailed in your documentation and the size that ends up being used on a default article page is 700×453 rather than 700×357 like the demo. I can only guess that there is something wrong with my Media settings, can you please detail how the Media settings should be set up?

Thanks,

jason

Hi,

The only WordPress image size that the theme uses is the thumbnail size: http://screencast.com/t/ZamKJmP7ar5I so this is the only media setting you need to consider: http://screencast.com/t/ZamKJmP7ar5I
The other image thumbs sizes are added inside the function.php file: http://screencast.com/t/4XZAbtTQ1
Regarding the featured image from post page it’s showing the image at 483 height because it’s showing the image at original height as the crop feature image option is not enabled in theme panel > post settings: http://screencast.com/t/gJyEjlvs8ng
You can find more info about how thumbs are created and how the crop function works in these topics:
