As I said, images may need editing before uploading to your site. </p> <p> Best regards,<br /> James </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-image-being-chopped-by-post-thumbnail-rather-than-cropped#post-2409 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 20:25:24 +0000 jimshaki 2409@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>This is truly limiting. Especially if you are a photgrapher. Rarly do yo uwant the subject at the center of the image. Is there anyway around this? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-image-being-chopped-by-post-thumbnail-rather-than-cropped#post-2394 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 18:17:23 +0000 Jeff 2394@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I started using replacing the image as suggested by @hubbabubba/@cwolff. It's laborious thought and it would sure be nice if there could be an easier way. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-image-being-chopped-by-post-thumbnail-rather-than-cropped#post-2356 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 14:55:08 +0000 James Morrison 2356@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Images are cropped by WordPress according to the sizes set in function.php - where the image is cropped is something beyond our control. As @hubbabubba said, you can manipulate the image using Photoshop or similar software then upload the image. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-image-being-chopped-by-post-thumbnail-rather-than-cropped#post-2289 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 00:34:46 +0000 cwolff 2289@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>@hubbabubba...thanks, I just noticed that the wp-content/upload folder contained generated thumbnails...I wish there was another solution as well. I do appreciate the response though. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-image-being-chopped-by-post-thumbnail-rather-than-cropped#post-2288 Mon, 09 Aug 2010 00:27:41 +0000 hubbabubba 2288@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I think the only workaround that I have learned has been to crop the images the way you want them to look on a program like photoshop and then upload them yourself to the wp-content/upload folder. I wish there was another solution, but it looks like this might be the only way. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-image-being-chopped-by-post-thumbnail-rather-than-cropped#post-2285 Sun, 08 Aug 2010 22:59:38 +0000 cwolff 2285@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>According to the documentation, the newslist slider requires a 700x320 image...which is fine, per <a href="http://www.patientadvocates.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.patientadvocates.com</a></p> <p>however the large preview and small preview image (thumbnails) chop a portion of the featured image which may not be what I want to display in the post <a href="http://patientadvocates.com/?p=118" rel="nofollow">http://patientadvocates.com/?p=118</a> for example a piece of the featured image is the thumbnail for the post.</p> <p>...can the featured image be scaled or even replaced with another image when the user pulls up the related post.</p> <p>Any help appreciated, thank you. </p>
