Preview images is scaling WordPress

  • SOLVED

The preview images on that page: http://design-studio-basel.ch/buildexcellence/referenzen/
are scailing, but I would like to have them size 1:1.

I changed the size in the CSS:

}

.fpost .post-thumb img { display:block;
width: 235px;
padding: 0px;
margin-right: 24px;
margin-top: 4px;
border-style: hidden;

}


then I'm uploading an image withe the size 235 x 135, but somehow it's not showing the full image it's only a part of it.

How can I change the preview to 1:1?

Can't be don't directly with CSS you need to put it through a resizing script, I would recommend TimThumb

Are you using the wordpress featured image to grab that image? If so... use it this way.

add this to functions.php


add_image_size( 'thumbnails', 235, 135, true ); /* Thumbnails posts */


Then call the post thumbnail in your loop with


<? the_post_thumbnail('thumbnails'); ?>


The 'true' in add_image_size will fit it properly

Yes, I'm using WP featured image, where exactly do I have to add the seconde code, also functions.php ?


Dan | gteh comments:

The Second one goes inside your loop in the spot where your image is being called. Most likely index.php. I xan look at it through ftp if you cant find it.

You're generating thumbnails. The loop code needs to change to allow for full images and not thumbs.
