Portfolio post gallery cropped to square

Hi Annekee,

Apologies for the delay. You just need to set a height for your images. You can do this from the Portfolio edit page under Portfolio Page Options. Does that work for you?

Kindly,

Hannah

Alas Hanna, the images in the Above+Image Grid are always cropped to a square, no matter what with or height values I put in there. It used to work fine but after a update (Virtue? Kadence?) they’re always cropped. I think it is in aq-resize.php but I don’t know how to make changes there. Do you have suggestions?

Hey,

Can you post a link to your site?

Thanks,

This is the last post with the problem. A while ago it went well, like this post. Same settings.

Hi @annekee,

I was able to replicate this. I’ll pass it onto the dev team and we’ll get back with you asap. Thanks for your patience.

Kindly,

Hannah

Thank you very much Hannah!

Hi again,

I spoke with the developer and he said that images were always meant to be cropped when using a grid. The only reason they weren’t before is because the image uploaded was too small to crop. The crop size is 600×600 px. If you upload an image smaller than that it will just output “as is”.

There is not currently an option in Virtue Free to change this, or even a code snippet so you would have to edit the portfolio template if you wanted to have a custom gallery that wasn’t cropped square. Or upload small images that are not at least 600px tall and 600px wide.

I hope that brings some clarification! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Best,

Hannah

Thank you for your time Hannah. Correct is that when I upload an image with the width of 599px the images indeed show proportional.

However, a change of code is of course always possible, because cropping images doesn’t happen by magic. But I assume that wouldn’t be commercially interesting for your company. On the other hand, you can download aq_resize.php for free on Github.

Anyway, alas, but thanks again!

Thanks for the feedback! We appreciate it.

Best,

Hannah
