  • Hi John, it looks like you’re using a different theme than Untitled on your self-hosted site now. Have you decided to switch themes or do you still need help?

    Hi Kathryn,

    I have changed it back to Untitled, I love the theme and I wanna use it just like how its on my wodrpress.com site.

    Regards
    John

    1.The image size on the slider is too big , in wordpress.com the slider image size was perfect (small preview of the image)

    Untitled does crop slider images to 1400 by 400, as you can see in the functions file:

    add_image_size( 'slider-img', 1440, 400, true );

    Since you’ve been switching themes, you’ll probably need to run the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin on your site to force the cropping. Let me know if this works.

    2.On the main page where all the posts are listed down , the size of the text and image are really small and its center aligned .In wordpress.com the text is bigger and also the images are bigger

    Running the Regenerate Thumbnail plugin I mentioned above should take care of standardizing the thumbnail image sizes on your homepage.

    I’m not seeing anything center-aligned, though – the alignment of your posts and the text within them seems the same on both sites. The text in your post excerpts also looks to be the same size to me. Here’s a screenshot from WordPress.com:

    DigitalKaleidoscope India Photography and Travel Guide

    and from your self-hosted site:

    Digital Kaleidoscope India Photography and Travel Blog

    Could you explain exactly what you’re seeing that’s center aligned, or provide a screenshot by uploading it – in a graphic format like JPG, PNG, or PDF – in your Media Library, and provide a link so I can see it, or upload it with a service like Imgur or Snaggy.

    In your sidebar on the homepage, the Recent Posts widget text looks like the same size as well.

    The only widget whose text looks smaller on your self-hosted site is the tag cloud. That’s likely because the tag cloud widget isn’t part of the theme, and is a bit different between WordPress.com and self-hosted sites. Yon can increase its font size by adding some custom CSS:

    .tagcloud {
        font-size: 160%;
    }

    Since you’re already using Jetpack, an easy way to add custom CSS is to activate the Custom CSS module. You’ll then add your custom CSS in the new stylesheet editor that’ll appear in your dashboard, under Appearance > Edit CSS.

    3.When I open a post again the photos and text appears smaller

    Again, I’m not this size difference on my end. Here are some screenshots of the sample page you linked above.

    Self-hosted: https://cloudup.com/cknBrk02eOI

    WordPress.com: https://cloudup.com/c4pZSarE9R0

    Some screenshots of what you’re seeing could be useful. Could you also please check that your browser is set to the default zoom position on both sites? If you let me know what browser you’re using I can help you find this setting if you’re not sure.

    Thanks a ton for the detailed explanation !!!

    I was able to fix the slider image size after running the regenerate widget.
    The thumbnail size was smaller on my www.ads-software.com size as the default zoom position was 100 and on the wordpress.com it was 125

    ??

    Great, glad you’re all set and you’re very welcome!
