    I need to decrease the size of the slider images. Most of the images my org uses are much smaller than the recommended 515×300.

    I’d like to decrease the size of the slider images to 200×200. I’d also like to display 3 featured posts in the slider at once instead of just 2. Could you offer some help?

    My site is http://www.stc-sd.org. Sorry in advance for the ugliness.

    Hi! Did you use https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/. Also please read: http://www.acosmin.com/documentation/post-thumbnails/ before using it

    Anyway it can’t be done, there are a lot of things to think about (custom work) and it might brake stuff. It wasn’t designed for those sizes.

    Can I decrease the size of the slider images to something smaller than 515×300? Is there maybe a minimum size limit for the slider?

    Read the docs and use the plugin mentioned above.

    To change sizes open functions.php and find:
    add_image_size( 'ac-slide-thumbnail', 515, 300, true );

    After you change sizes reactivate the theme and use regenerate thumbnails.

    To make the slider show 3 posts you need to open ../assets/js/myscripts.js

    and change width = width / 2; to width = width / 3;

    If you plan on updating the theme use a child theme.

    As I said, this is custom work and I can’t help you more than that. You can hire someone to help you on jobs.wordpress.net
