I moved my wp site from my macbook to an Ubuntu server. As soon as I did that wp hard cropping started working. My guess is that the hard cropping needs a library or program such as Image Magic to do the re-sizing and that it isn’t present on some platforms.

HI Welshhuw,

Are you saying that you followed Mark’s instructions and got the hard crop to work?

Hi Brigitte,

Just had a look at your blog pages and the thumbnail for the St.Paddy’s Day post looks fine – in the search and the holiday’s listing it is a nicely cropped image. Did you fix it, or where you trying to do something else?

This occurs in 2.9.2 as well. People have posted a couple of times in the Forums about it, and many times in Blogs. But nobody seems to have come up with an explanation.

What platform are you working on?

If I deactivate all the plugins the categories works fine.

I’ve been through all my plugins activating them one at a time and I’ve tracked the problem down to one, Role Scoper

I’m using WordPress 2.9.2 and I’m trying to create a photo gallery with hard cropped images. I’ve got basically the same code as DeltaHF, except different sizes and different name for my custom size. I display the image with:

<?php echo wp_get_attachment_image($attachment_id, $size = 'gallery', $icon = false ); ?>

And I get a cropped image, but it is not hard cropped – the aspect ratio is maintained. It’s a nightmare to work with. Everytime I test I delete the images and load new ones.

Anyone got any ideas why this might be? I’m working on a Mac and wondered if this might be a platform specific problem. Anyone had this problem and found a solution?
