Where are uploaded image sized defined?

[Patagonia]

Hi, I noticed that on the archive and blog masonry pages each entry has a 480px wide version of the featured image. In the site folders I also saw 672px wide versions of uploaded images.

1) In my wordpress option (Settings -> media) I have the standard sizes (1024/300/150px), so where did these images come from?

2) The images are resized and overkill. For example a 60kb 480px is only shown at 179px or 284px width (depending on blog vs archive view). In both cases a much smaller image would suffice. Where is this defined and can we optimize it?

Cheers

Hi, Since 1.4.2 those sizes are stored in a theme variable in wp-content\themes\kleo\lib\theme-functions.php:
//Post image sizes for carousels and galleries
$kleo_config[‘post_gallery_img_width’] = 480;
$kleo_config[‘post_gallery_img_height’] = 270;

To change those values without altering main theme files add this code in your kleo-child/functions.php

COPY CODE

/* Change KLEO default image size */
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'kleo_change_image_sizes' );
function kleo_change_image_sizes() {
	global $kleo_config;

	//Post image sizes for carousels and galleries
	$kleo_config['post_gallery_img_width'] = 400;
	$kleo_config['post_gallery_img_height'] = 200;
}

Hi, coming back to this with a related request:

I have prepared images to be used as featured images, they are exactly 900px wide. I changed my theme/css so that the featured image/container is this width as well.

However, after selecting one of these images, a smaller version (that I did not define, for example 769px wide) is selected which is upscaled, which degrades the image quality. If I delete that version, no image is shown, so KLEO is looking for a smaller version, it does not pick a larger version.

How can I be sure that the full-size version / 900px version is being used as the featured image? Of course I want to use smaller versions for the masonry etc.

Thanks in advance!

I noticed that the problem lies in this part of kleo/functions.php:

COPY CODE

	/* This theme uses a custom image size for featured images, displayed on "standard" posts. */
	add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );
	set_post_thumbnail_size( 672, 9999 ); // Unlimited height, soft crop 
	add_image_size( 'kleo-full-width', 1038, 583 );

If I change the last line to 900,999, then the 900pxx version is used.

Of course I should not edit the Kleo/functions.php, can I just add the above function to the child’s functions.php? Or just the last line?

Thanks

to change that size you should add this in the functions.php from the child theme

COPY CODE

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'kleo_setup_image_size', 11 );
function kleo_setup_image_size() {
set_post_thumbnail_size( 672, 900 );
}

Great I had the same dilemma..

Hi,

I have a similar problem to this.

– I uploaded a portrait orientation image with dimensions of 2448 × 3264 to the WordPress Media Library.
– I created a new post, and selected the above image as my featured image.
– I published the post.

On the single post page, the image is displaying a 437 x 583 pixel image SCALED UP to 764 x 1019 pixels.

So this seems to be re-sizing my original image to a height of 583 pixels based on this line in kleo/functions.php

add_image_size( 'kleo-full-width', 1038, 583 );

Which then displays a pixelated image as by scaling the image based on the height, the width is not sufficient.

Are you sure in order to fix this, it’s correct to change the post thumbnail size from:

set_post_thumbnail_size( 672, 9999 ); // Unlimited height, soft crop

to

set_post_thumbnail_size( 672, 900 ); // Unlimited height, soft crop

and NOT change the line with the height parameter of 583 which seems to be the function that is setting the incorrect height?

add_image_size( 'kleo-full-width', 1038, 583 );

Could someone please clarify this?

Thanks!

Hi. Sorry for the late reply. The solution you suggest applies for the single page images that are shown by the theme. you need to regenerate the thumbnails once you change the image sizes. Use a plugin like Force regenerate thumbnails
