Images not resizing to sizes set in media Settings?

  • tomwgf · Member ·

    hi
    in:
    Media Settings> Large size>width is set to 695px.
    I have checked in the database>options and that it is also set to 695px.

    But when i upload an image (say 2000px wide) the Large size is set to 620px.

    What am i doing wrong?

    Sorry found the problem and the fix.
    the fix is:

    // FIX LARGE SIZE IMAGE SIZE
    function my_theme_setup() {
    // Define $content_width global
    global $content_width;
    if ( ! isset( $content_width ) ) {
    $content_width = 695;
    }
    }
    add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘my_setup’, 9 );

    the problem was that though i use this theme a lot, tis design had a transparent content area, so i had not set a width for the content area. so the parent theme function file defaulted to a width of 620. which for some reason showed up in the image sizes section.

    Hello WordPress Engineers:

    Like many WordPress.com users, I was initially concerned when the image editor stopped working. I noted the many replies—but decided to give the changes time to work out.

    They are definitely getting better over the last 10 days. For example, the in-post image resizing is now working, whereas last week if you used the sizing arrows the picture became proportionally distorted.

    I think you guys (WordPress engineers) do pay heed to comments and ultimately the changes will make the editing process easier for those who are not CSS or html savvy.

    No pain, no gain!
