// in functions.php
if ( function_exists( 'add_image_size' ) ) {
// set image size here
add_image_size( 'homepage-thumb', 300, 9999 );
}
// in index.php (or whatever template file shows your front page)
if(is_home()){
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
the_post_thumbnail( 'homepage-thumb' );
}
}
I did that and nothing has changed 🙁
Sometimes you need to re-upload images before the new size is shown. You can also do this with a plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/
We are getting somewhere!
Added the plugin, regenerated images, and the latest posts image was added in the thumbnail format at the top right corner of the page, all by itself. The post’s featured image on the homepage was not resized though.
It doesnt change the post’s featured image on homepage, just adds one small thumbnail is position depending where I post the code in Index.php
I’ll mess around a bit more, but any idea?
Got it!
I replaced the “archive-thumb” in the image.php file with “homepage-thumb”, still having the add_image_size in the functions.php and it worked. Thanks for the Image Regenerator plugin, as I have to regenerate everytime I try and make the size right.
No plugin need, just add width:1004px; and i just found it! this is my site that come with build in featured slide. to change it go to style.css or css in your theme:
under
/* ={ FEATURED SLIDER – LARGE} */
find
#featured_a_posts .item .featured_media {border:1px solid #aaa;display:block;}
change to
#featured_a_posts .item .featured_media {width:1004px; border:1px solid #aaa;display:block;}
Note: width:1004px for my site.
thanks
