Huge images

If I remove the wordpress formatting in the source and do it the old fashioned way it comes out fine. But I’d like to just be able to use the WP functionality for adding and manipulating images especially seeing as I’m going to eventually had the site off to someone with even less knowledge than I have. Thanks.

Another workaround is to use an alternate size besides the “full size” option. Still have the same dilemma with handing off the site though.

Hello,

Sorry for our late response.

Can you give us a link to your website?

The site is here (in subfolder as it’s not live just yet)
mercyseat.net/mscc/
For example, the small picture of the pamphlet at the bottom of this page will show up very large if I just use the media button in the editor:
https://mercyseat.net/mscc/2015/10/07/protest-birth-control/

Thanks!

Can you also insert that image in large size?
We want to see this issue in live website.

Best regards,
Shufflehound team

I switched it out for the original formatting, https://mercyseat.net/mscc/2015/10/07/protest-birth-control/

This is the code from using the “Add Media” button:
<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-336" src="https://mercyseat.net/mscc/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/protest-birth-control.jpg" alt="protest-birth-control" width="80" height="180" />

And here is code simplified by me to get it to work:
<img align="right" src="https://mercyseat.net/mscc/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/protest-birth-control.jpg" alt="protest-birth-control" width="80" height="180" />

Thank you!

Hello,

First code snippet shows that it have ‘size-full’ class, which means to set it to the full size. That could be the issue.

For some reason that snippet is automatically added no matter what size I choose in the “Add Media” dialog. It is the culprit, but why is it added? My concern is that at some point I will have to hand this off to someone who is not familiar with changing code. If it is the theme it would be great to have it fixed, especially since I plan on using the theme in the future – it’s an awesome theme.

If you don’t want to use this class, you can overwrite it by using something like this:

body .size-full {
   width: auto!important;
}
