How is it going with a bug fix? Waiting for a new version with the fix ??

Hey

It does use “Website URL” as custom field – and it does print the url people enter, it just does not make it a link

I actually bought the pro but deactivated it. Wasnt what I hoped. But thanks for the reply

And this is why I ask – when you have 3 very different dimensions for your image slots, is there a dimension that will actually look good in all 3 (otherwise the theme can generally only be used with featured turned off or as a static page)

No thats not what I am asking, featured images are obviously needed to make it look good.

I am asking which dimensions on the featured image will look good – should it be 16:9, 4:3, 6:1 or whatever: Ie, which dimension will not be stretched or squeezed in any of the Featured slots or in the grid

Right now: a featured image with dimensions that looks good in the 1st Featured slot will look terrible in the 2nd featured slot (and given it will rotate there as soon as a new post is made, that makes it unusable)

Now theres 8 – but it doesnt help.

The top left photo stretches horizontally
The grid pictures stretches vertically

It is simply that the space allotted for featured pics are in 3 different dimensions & it stretches the featured image to fit. So the wide banner stretches wide, the narrow ones squeezes them etc.

I literally just installed Axis & imported 3 posts to test, no css editing

That one is trying:
List layout – content with Featured enabled

If I swap to
Gride layout – content with Featured enabled the problem gets worse as the featured images that fits the 3 300×250 slot in featured gets stretched vertically to around 300×400 in the grid below Featured.

Heya

Just tried installing the latest version of Axis on a fresh/empty blog.

The issue still remains there

Featured section:
Left/big image: if i set this one about 300×250 in dimension it will look fine.

However, if I do so, once it goes to the top right image position in featured it will be stretched horizontally (because that spot would fit more like a 800×250)

Of course if I then try a 800×250 to make the “banner” spot look ok, it will squash it to 300×250 dimensions when it goes to the 2 smaller pic slots in featured

So the questions is, can it be made to automatically crop to the size it needs? And/or is there an ideal dimension that will work in all featured slots + as featured image for the posts without stretching/squashing ?

Hey. Thank you for the swift and helpful reply

1. Oki – i am trying disabling other plugins 1 by 1 to see if something interferes somehow. Any other pointers to potential conflict locations?

2. Ah yes, I was blind. I had missed the URL markup.
