Best approach to changing featured image height

Ditchmonkey · March 2017

I'm very new to this. I'm wondering if changing the display height of the featured image on a page is something I should do in the visual composer?

Also, why on the blog pages are the featured images not displayed at the same spot under the header?

I see that the featured image is displayed below but that just leaves a large blank spot under the header.

Thanks.

Hi,

You canot change it's height because this is a background. All we can do is make the container higher and then more of the image will be shown.

Below the muffin builder there are page options where you can add a header image, that will display in the blank spot or disable the featured image on this page, which will leave you with one image.

thanks

1. How do I change the height? In the custom css in the Betheme options? If so, can you help me with the line I need to add?

2. Why is the handling of the featured image as the BG image different for pages and posts? How can I make the post page behave the same as a page with regard to the featured image being the BG image?

3. It seems that the featured image has no function at all in the post template. Why is this? I tried adding a header image as you mentioned but that is not showing up either.

3. The featured image appears in posts and the header image is just below the menu.

2. It's just the way it works, there are two pictures for posts, featured and header. For pages its only the featured image

1. To increase the height of the container use this custom css

body:not(.template-slider) #Header {
    min-height: 450px !important;
}

You can regulate the height by changing the value of pixels, now it's 450
