I've Been Embedding My Images At The Wrong Size, How Can I Make Them Uniform?

    My website is http://www.rapwave.net

    I misunderstood my theme and have been uploading images at 640px and then embedding the full image size into my theme, which is apparently only 620px causing overflow.

    The same goes for how I’ve implemented featured images, by making my site pull the image and display it, they too cut off.

    I am familiar with regenerate thumbnails, but is there a way I can create a CSS image container that prevents by images from overflowing and turns all my 640px wide images into content fitting 620px images?

    I’m just looking to fit the images in without the hidden overflow.

    How can I more define the size of my featured images and embedde images, I’m not looking to adjust media settings I have done that. It’s only embedded images (which include my featured image due to coding) that are overflowing.

    Please help!

    The theme is titled Point.

    it’s a responsive theme by theme forest. I tried this: <?php the_post_thumbnail( $large, $attr ); ?> and regenerated a thumbnail to the “large” setting to make it fit within the 620px but it still appears to clip and reference the “full size” with overflow for my featured image placement. im looking for a site wide image fix at this point.

    Here is what I mean.

    This is the same image

    The top instance is calling for its full size at 640 with overflow, the bottom is embedded at my newly created “620” large size.

    How can I contain ALL my pre-existing images to a maximum of 620px wide, including “featured images” and ones that have been embedded in posts?

    Sorry I made the proper adjustments and switched $size to ‘large’ and when i regenerate thumbnails it appears to work.

    Now I’m just wondering how I can fix the width for “embedded” images in my posts.
