I’m puzzling over this oddity:

This Featured Image photo failed to resize, and appears enormous: http://manreach.org/news/same-photo-as-summer-gatherings This Featured Image photo resized just fine: http://manreach.org/news/abundance

Both images, according to the Media Library, were uploaded to their respective blog Posts. I can’t make any sense out of why one fails to be displayed as a reduced size and one does. Any ideas?

jonathan01

Your image scaled just fine :)

One is square and one is portrait – the width is what is altered – we do not crop images (as this would be pretty useless as it could cut off your main focus of the image) – therefore crop before you upload if you want them all the same size.

The theme is working as it should and altered your width of the image (and height proportionally) – but your image is hugely long as mentioned.

Nope, they are both rectangular, horizontal images. One of them appeared to be “hugely long” because your theme was displaying only a silver of the side of the image. Your theme does in fact scale images to particular sizes based on the layout. For blog layout with sidebar, images display as 630 pixels wide. For example, a 980px × 738px Featured Image is automatically scaled by your theme to 630px × 474px. However, sometimes, your theme does not scale the image. My question is – why does it scale them sometimes but not always?

Also, is there a way to make the slider on the front page load first, so that all the content below it does not appear first and then a few seconds later bounce downward to make room for the slider?

jonathan01

That is purely due to your photo sizes – always best to upload the correct size rather than ask a persons internet connection / computer / browser to scale your image – or if the file isn’t optimized for the web it will take longer for the browser to render images than it does pure text.

Ok, that is too bad. My slider only uses 3 images, and they’re precisely sized to match the slider, and I saved them on the atrociously bad setting of only “5”, so they’re very small in KB, but without the theme being able to wait for the slider to load before it loads the rest of the page, there is a jumping effect. Buyers be aware!

jonathan01

To say I am not familiar with my own theme is just a silly statement :)

The theme will scale your image based on the width of it’s container, if your image is 1200×1200 and it’s going in a full width 980px wide container your image will be 980px x 980px – if your image is 1000×2000px placed in the same container ( 980px ) your image will be scaled based on the width therefore your image would display 980px x 1960px.

As this is a comment area if you wish to discuss further please use the support center – but again, everything is correct with the theme, maybe you are referring to WordPress media settings which are nothing to do with the theme and you can set your own sizes.

I’m deleting this comment because it seems pretty clear you aren’t able to help.

jonathan01

Hi again,

no other buyer has any issue with scaling of images. Therefore this may be something with your setup possibly, or another plugin maybe – right now it’s hard to tell but being rude will not help us help you – best to use the support center so we can ask for detailed info as the links already provided I answered based on what I can actually see – which of course would be the finished images after upload and therefore I don’t know what they looked like before you uploaded. You said they were the same image, however they were completely different images and formats from what I could see.

Your being rather unfair and a little rude – remember that we offer support for free and have an exceptional record for our products and support – as I already said I am more than willing to help once you open a ticket and we can try and work out your issue.

Thanks

I am currently pursuing the theory that if the file name contains a period, as the larger image of the mountain did, the .jpg extension might not be recognized, and the image therefore was not scaled.

Rude is giving a cursory glance to a problem and then denying the problem exists, or using the old “no one else is…” canard. You have no idea how frustrating it is when a technical problem is brought to the supposed expert, and then is not looked at in the depth required to actually answer the question. I don’t have patience for that, sorry. And calling the support “free” when it is only available to paying customers, well, thanks Orwell. Goodbye!

Found the problem and solution, and to be fair this was a Wordpress problem not a problem with the theme. In the file functions.php, change line 8 from

add_image_size( ‘slide’, 980, 9999, true);

to

add_image_size( ‘slide’, 980, 9999, false);

And from then on, very large images that are uploaded will not be erroneously changed by the Media Library uploader.
