Vertical Featured Image Masonry Style Portfolio Cropped to Horizontal

2point0heads

I've noticed a bug / problem when selecting a large vertical image for the featured image of a portfolio item.  Specifically we've found that when we uploaded a vertical image with a dimension of 1400 vertical by 700 horizontal that the Theme would crop the image and make it appear as a horizontal thumb on the summary portfolio page.

However, when we reduce the size of the Featured Image to 700 vertical by 500 wide, the image is not cropped and shows up on the portfolio page with the correct vertical orientation NOT cropped.

Can you provide guidance on how to correct this behavior?  TY!

Hi,

this is not a bug but it's proper behave. If you want to change images sizes, you must do this under functions/theme-functions.php file where add_image_size() functions are. Please remember, that after this change, you must use Force Regenerate Thumbnails plugin.

Just to be clear, it's proper behavior for a masonry portfolio page to crop a vertical image in half rather than downsizing it to allow the full image to be presented?

Again, I was able to defeat the cropping by reducing the original size of the image.

Thank you.

Yes, this is what we exactly mean.
