At the top of my WordPress theme there is a featured image on each page as part of the header. The size of this is, width=”976″ height=”313″. The featured image for a GeoDirectory entry displays in the place of this as I’d like it to however the size of the image displayed is too small. I’m not sure what controls this however the image it is using is 313px in height (conveniently matches the preset hight in the theme) however the width isn’t correct (not as large as it should be) – I’d prefer it to set the the width of the image first.

I hope that makes sense. Any help appreciated.

Thanks
Matt

Therefore it does not seem to be a GD issue, but a theme issue.
So the solution might be found there.

What theme are you using and what is your URL. At least then we can have a look.

An alternative would be to hide the image there. It’s a bit redundant, given that you already have the same image in the gallery.

That would be much easier I guess.

Let us know,

Thx

the image you uploaded here http://www.weltonvillage.co.uk/places/united-kingdom/lincolnshire/lincoln/welton-businesses/one-hair-beauty/ is 800px X 524px.

the image you uploaded here http://www.weltonvillage.co.uk/2014/10/15/ashing-lane-nature-reserve-nwt-october-2014-update/ is 2032px X 670px.

If you upload an image larger than 976px wide and 313px high, it will work also on that detail page, but this is definitely a theme problem.

In fact, if you use the image of the 1st listing on a regular page, you will face the exact same issue.

Thx

This is what I’m trying to figure out, where in GD does it instruct the change image ratio?

Thanks
Matt

I’ll flag this for developers as it could use the Large size of wp media settings, giving users a way to alter the resize.

However, I still think you’d be better off hiding that featured image on listing details pages.

Thx

Cheers
Matt
