My users just use Youtube video URL (the one in the address bar), like * I hope that answered your question. Yes, please add it for voting. * By the way, since this plugin doesn’t work for me, i’m wondering when it does work, will the featured image be savd in the media library/server? I hope it won’t that way it keeps the site and server light, and that can also be applied to the embedded video use case described above. * Thank you. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[EasyMag] Images on category archive pages are not of the same size](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-on-category-archive-pages-are-not-of-the-same-size/) * Thread Starter [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/) * (@newance) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-on-category-archive-pages-are-not-of-the-same-size/#post-10951388) * Dear author, * Sorry about so many replies on this thread since your last reply. My last two replies were on the same issue, which I seemed to have just found a solution but not sure if the solution is without any averse effects with me lacking in technical backgroud and the whole picture in mind. * I went through the theme files and found the archive.php and content-single.php, then I change the photo size from dt-featured-post-large to dt-featured-post- medium (line 39) and from full to dt-featured-post-medium (line 20) respectively and affter that, the feature photo on top look the same size on every archive page and those smaller ones below look the same size and the right size for the screen, and on single post pages it also won’t look too large , a bit too small but still acceptable. * So if this solution is acceptable, how do I make the changes to my child theme? Another question following this change is : I originally use EWWW Image Optimizer * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/ewww-image-optimizer/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ewww-image-optimizer/) * to knock down the photo file size since my site uses mainly member generated content and photo files add up quickly. But for the solution I described above to work, I’d have to disable the “resize” function in EWWW Image Optimizer, which can set max width and height on images uploaded to the Media Library. That means the photos now all look good with the theme but the photo sizes can still be pretty big. Any thoughts on that, please? Thank you. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[EasyMag] Images on category archive pages are not of the same size](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-on-category-archive-pages-are-not-of-the-same-size/) * Thread Starter [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/) * (@newance) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-on-category-archive-pages-are-not-of-the-same-size/#post-10951206) * Hi Geoffrey, * Thank you for the clarification. Yes, I did submit 2 threads for the same theme with 2 different subjects / questions so that could be kind of confusing. All my threads got automatically moderataed becasue one moderator said I changed email address and have more than one account, which i did not know back then was not accetped for being new in this forum and wordpress a couple years ago. And the reason I did that was to try to avoid a situation occurred between a WordPress plugin author from themeforest and me. Since then I’ve remained the same email adress and same account but all my threads still got automaticalloy moderated. So is that restriction a permanent one? Thank you. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[EasyMag] Images on category archive pages are not of the same size](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-on-category-archive-pages-are-not-of-the-same-size/) * Thread Starter [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/) * (@newance) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-on-category-archive-pages-are-not-of-the-same-size/#post-10950578) * (To the moderator) I’m not sure why my last reply was deleted since I didn’t see any violation in its content. It would be appreciated if you can let me know what was the reason of removing that reply so i know what i did wrong. * (To the author) So I’ll tried to rephrase my question: when looking at the plugin you suggested, AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild, I found the dimensions of photos from the theme. which are * dt-highlighted-post (414×279 cropped) dt-featured-image (556×380 cropped) dt- featured-post-large (870×600 cropped) dt-featured-post-medium (410×260 cropped) dt-featured-post-medium-small (230×150 cropped) dt-featured-post-small (230×184 cropped) * I tested publishing posts both from backend Admin and from frontend (using WP User Frontend) and included featured images of different sizes in both. When looking at category archive pages, in both scenarios, the feature large photos at the top of the page appeared different sizes depending on the oiginal photos’ sizes, but all those images below it remained the same size. So my conclusion was the theme will resize those smaller photos below the feature large photo but the size of the large feature photos at the top can only be controlled manually. And that’s why you advised I should recommend my members to use 870*600px image when uploading from frontend. Is the conclusion correct? * And is there a way to change the featured large photo size of 870*600px size to a smaller one? Thank you. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[EasyMag] To enable featured images in single posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/to-enable-featured-images-in-single-posts/) * Thread Starter [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/) * (@newance) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/to-enable-featured-images-in-single-posts/#post-10948256) * Dear Author, * Thank you for the reply. the codes work like a charm. I’m using the child theme so if i simply replace the original file, when the theme gets update, will the codes get wiped out? Should I somehow make the changes to the child theme? If I should, plaese advise how.

One question here: the 870 x 600 is for the feature post on the top of each category archive page. My site is membership site and will generate tons of these category archive pages (I have 50+ categories). So in order to save resources and minimize file sizes, instead of 870 x 600, can I make it the same size of those images below it but still hold that same top position? I also noticed this 877 x 600 size will also become the feature image size when appearing in each single post (thank you for the reply to my the other thread), which somehow looks a bit too large for the presentation.

I have changed the featured-slider.php to 10 and related- posts.php to 9. But I believe I should use child theme so these changes won’t get wiped out when theme gets update.

I understand how it works now. I experiemnted with it a bit more and found the following: * When it’s set at * Today – only displaying posts published today based on the parameters in the shortcode * Last Day – only displaying posts published yesterday (**excluding today**) based on the parameters in the shortcode * Last 7 Days – only displaying posts published last 7 days (INCLUDING today) based on the parameters in the shortcode * Last Month – only displaying posts published last month (INCLUDING today) based on the parameters in the shortcode * All Time – displaying posts published any time (INCLUDING today) based on the parameters in the shortcode * If all correct, I’m wondering if there’s a way to display a slider that displays posts published Today and Last Day baesd on parameters in the shortcode? That’s also what I need besides the Today setting. * Thank you. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Trending/Popular Post Slider and Widget] Slider, Carousel, or Grid Block show up off and on](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slider-carousel-or-grid-block-show-up-off-and-on/) * Thread Starter [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/) * (@newance) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slider-carousel-or-grid-block-show-up-off-and-on/#post-10541811) * Hi there, * Yes, it worked. Thank you very nuch. I had another question: * I viewed and commented on various posts when the setting was set on “All Time” then I checked the sliders, they show up and behave properly. But if I immediately changed the setting to “Today”, the sliders disappeared. Then I changed it to“ Last Day” and the sliders reappeared. * So the views and comments were made only minutes before I checked the sliders when i switched the setting to “Today”, but the sliders did not reflect those views and comments. So what’s the rule of thumb here? * Thank you. * Best Regards * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Trending/Popular Post Slider and Widget] Slider, Carousel, or Grid Block show up off and on](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slider-carousel-or-grid-block-show-up-off-and-on/) * Thread Starter [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/) * (@newance) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slider-carousel-or-grid-block-show-up-off-and-on/#post-10536721) * Hi there, * Thank you for the reply. * I retyped the codes manually and now they’re behaving normally except they’re not in the right order. * The order is supposed to be based on comment count in descending order but as you can see, all 3 of them display posts in a random order that does not seem to make any sense. * I look at all the parameters in the shortcodes and can’t really figure out anything wrong. * Thank you. * Best Regards, * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Trending/Popular Post Slider and Widget] Slider, Carousel, or Grid Block show up off and on](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slider-carousel-or-grid-block-show-up-off-and-on/) * Thread Starter [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/) * (@newance) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slider-carousel-or-grid-block-show-up-off-and-on/#post-10528846) * Hi there, * Thank you for the reply. * My site is still on my pc hard drive. In order to let you see what it looks like, i created a temp brand new clean wordpress installation on a live server. The only plugin I installed was this plugin and I recreated the problem on a page. * But let me first give you the codes I used so you can see if there’re any errors. * [wtpsw_carousel limit=”20″ post_type=”post” view_by=”views” order=”DESC” words_limit =”title” dots=”true” arrows=”true” autoplay=”true” autoplayinterval=”3000″ showdate =”false” slides_to_show=”3″ speed=”300″] * Mind you at this time only the carousel has problem. The other two appears to be working properly. But just in case you need their codes, * [wtpsw_gridbox limit=”15″] [wtpsw_popular_post showdate=”false” showcontent=” false” limit=”20″] * The page I created is * [http://testfly.flywheelsites.com/23-2/](http://testfly.flywheelsites.com/23-2/) * It’s a free service so the host lock the server and you’d need the following to log into their server to be able to see the page * username: flywheel password: nestnest * On the top of the page is the carousel slider. The problem are: * 1. The order is not correct. You can find the correct order (based on views) in the other two below it. * 2. The crrousel is not autoplaying at all when it’s supposed to. * I have selected “post” “Jobs” (WP Job Manager), and “Events” (Event Manager) on my local site but even if I uncheck Jobs and Events and kept only post, the same 2 problems remained. * On the demo site, I only have Post and the same 2 problems still appear. * Thank you. * Best Regards - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Quiz Maker, Poll Maker & Survey Maker by Opinion Stage] Regarding link problem in quiz result](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/regarding-link-problem-in-quiz-result/) * Thread Starter [newance](https://wordpress.org/support/users/newance/) * (@newance) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/regarding-link-problem-in-quiz-result/#post-10520005) * To the moderator, * Instead of going into details of why I’d have used more than 1 id to use the forum in the first place, after the last id I used being placed under moderation, that id was under moderation for every single post I submitted for quite some time.
