    I’d like to know how to stop Enfold from taking the image 950X632 that I am using in my Post Blogs and rendering down to 600X400. I have over 800 legacy posts and have for five years maintained the 950X632 size for my Blogs.

    I have tried to use a unique Post Page to solve the problem, but it also renders the image down.

    I do not want to use the featured image function to solve this issue

    thanks !

    Hey Ed!

    The only solution would be to switch to the “fullwidth blog” layout like demonstrated here: http://kriesi.at/themes/enfold/blog/blog-single-author-full/ – then the images will fit into the surrounding blog container (which has a width of around 1040px). If you use the default blog layout with a sidebar there’s simply not enough space to display the images with a resolution of 950px because the surrounding blog container has a width of just 700px.

    Regards,

    Hi, – thanks, Not solved –

    I figured I had to goto fullsize, but I do not have a choice under element Blog Post for blog-single-author-full. The only choice is single author, big preview Pic,(no author picture is displayed, featured image big). When this is enabled and I set Preview image size to original, I am still getting a Blog Posted with the 600X400 dimension.

    any ideas ??

    I am a photographer. The images that come out of all DLSR camera are a 4:3 format. I want to use my Images as they came from camera and not an Enfold feature Image cropped version o 1500X430 or 1500X650. If I look at the link you’ve show, the images are not real format, they are all cropped.

    I set a featured image with my 950X632 and went full screen with blog, and the image rendered was 1500X430.. I don’s want my image to take on the dimensions that I did not specify.

    I have 800 blog’s and thousands of images at 4:3. I need to use those images that are already linked in my blogs to display at full screen with 950X632.

    It should be very easy to accommodate, you are already downsampling my 950X632 (4:3) to 600X400 (4:3) in full-sized post with the featured image disabled.

    Hey!

    Can we see an example of what you mean? If these are images inside of posts then its a matter of the images needed to adapt to the size of the container and using the layout you want. Each can be seen in the demo under Blog and chosen from the theme options.

    If you have images previously uploaded and inserted into posts that are too large but were originally generated from a previous theme size or a previous setting from your WordPress media size for large/medium images you can use a plugin to regenerate all the images to the new sizes Enfold uses: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

    Hi,

    thanks for the response.

    The images inside of my posts are 950X632. If I use the large container, then the images should display at 950X632, for some reason, even with the larger container, the images are being rendered at 600X400.

    http://fritzimages.com/blog/2014/fourth-july-fireworks-albany-ny/21998/

    I know you are trying to help, but please do not make the suggestion about that regeneration plugin. I’ll never use it. My work and content have been produced over the last five years at the dimensions that are compatible with the DLSR ratio 4:3 ration and my vision of how that content should be displayed….Your site is currently rerendering that content to a 600X400 dimension is 4:3 which is downsized from my 950X632 is 4:3 inside a large container. At least the aspect ratio that we are both using is compatible, of the images would be compromised.

    How do I get my work at my original dimensions to display in the full size container that is not the featured image ?

    Where specifically is the setting that designates the 600 X 400. And can this be changed. Or can we add my image dimensions to your database ?

    thanks

    As you probably know…

    Your theme puts featured image inside an upper box and outside a lower box of blog content and text.

    the lower box does not resize when using full frame.

    The problem is that that the theme blog size is to small.

    How can I change <div class = “entry-content” improp=”text”

    Looks Like I’m toast trying to use this Blog Post like the last 5 themes I have used over the last several years. You guys are doing something very unconventional to everything I have ever used or seen before. Very counterintuitive and disruptive thinking and design on your part. ( just my opinion and observation). Why anyone would create a blog container that does not resize with the width of theme is crazy.

    In any event, I’ll have to look for ways to adapt using the functions that you do have.

    Mark this dissatisfied with theme functionality and Enfold design for blog single post but close the thread.

    I think what you are looking for is just a very specific html and css layout which is non-standard industry wide. Even the current default theme for WordPress uses the same format: http://twentyfourteendemo.wordpress.com/ – large featured image at the top and then the blog post content is contained inside a single container.

    What you could do in this case is very simple increase the size of the container for the blog layout you’ve chosen:

    
    #top .fullsize .template-blog .post .entry-content-wrapper > * {
    max-width: 800px;
    }
    

    If you wanted to keep the text to the original 600 pixel wide max width then the text itself would need a separate div container or maybe a shortcode to give it a smaller max-width.

    Hi Devin,

    that’s exactly the info I needed ! Perfect…..

    Do you see and understand now….?

    thanks !

    Yep! It was just a matter of seeing an example so we could get on to the same page. With the number of requests we see and variety of terms that get interchanged its often very difficult to follow exactly what any one user wants to achieve without a visual example.

    There is so much that can be done with a bit of css or a small change and we will always try and help to make it happen where we can :)
