Featured Image Sizing Problem on Blog Page

  • Hi @ponce918,

    Thank you for reaching out to us!

    The theme was made so the image sizes are 600×400. These sizes can be changed, but in order to do this you need the pro version of the theme because unfortunately, the lite version does not have this option.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions!

    Warmly,
    Beatrice.

    Thanks for the reply. But your answer doesn’t really make sense.

    I think there is a bug in the theme irrespective of free vs. paid. Or at least one you should not have to pay for in order to fix.

    Here is the core issue. You say featured images should be 600×400. However, on both the Blog page and the post page, at maximum browser width, you scale the image to almost 779 wide. Enlarging the image this way decreases the resolution of the image and makes it looks fuzzy. You should not scale the image larger than the native image size. So, if the spec says featured images should be 600 x 400, your responsive design should not size them larger than the native image size.

    If your responsive design max left column size requires an image of 779 to fill it, then your featured image recommendation should be 779 wide.

    It’s fine to decrease the image size from its native size but not to enlarge it.

    Please advise.

    Hello @ponce918,

    I truly understand your frustration, but unfortunately, this is how the theme was made. The most we can do is open a ticket on our github so our developers can investigate and add a fix for a future update. Here is the ticket so you can see the progress: https://github.com/WPChill/allegiant-lite/issues/87

    I am sorry for the inconvenience!

    Warm regards,
    Beatrice.
