    Hello,

    I need to adjust the size of the main image on my website (it’s too small).

    It’s in the right hand column of section with 2 columns.

    I’ve tried adjusting some of the function.php code without success.

    Please help?

    Yours,

    Hey BrilliantL,

    It looks like you have set that as a background to the container element, could you try simply adding it with and Image element instead maybe?

    Best regards,

    Hello Rikard,

    Awesome – thank you!

    I have made the change. Now, how do I adjust the image size (it’s still quite small).

    Yours,

    Hey!

    Image is displayed in fullsize 200x300px. If you would like to display it bigger, please make sure to upload bigger version of the image :)

    Hello Yigit,

    Thank you. I just checked the image in Media – it’s “Dimensions: 2848 × 4272”.

    Here’s the URL: http://www.brilliantl.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/IMG_8292.jpg

    Thoughts?

    Hey!

    While adding your image, please make sure that you are adding it in full size (or any desired size) – http://i.imgur.com/5ANZRDgr.jpg.
    If that too does not help, please create a temporary admin login and post it here privately.

    Hi Yigit,

    Thank you!

    I have successfully adjusted the image size to “Large”, but now I’m not sure how to get it into a size between “Medium” (which is too small – 200×300) and “Large” (which is too big – 687×1030).

    Is there a way to customize the size?

    Hi!

    Images are responsive and they would actually resize automatically depending on its container width. You can use pre-defined image sizes, or use this plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-image-sizes/ to change pre-defined image sizes.
    If you would like to use the plugin, please do not forget to regenerate thumbnails after adjusting sizes :)

    Cheers!

    Hello Again,

    So, I went back, installed the plugin, and tried to modify the image sizes.

    The bad news is, I still can’t figure out a way to do it. When I upload the image into a media element, it still only gives me the standard medium, large options (I have tried regenerating thumbnails, etc.).

    The good news is, I have used buffers in the elements/columns to pare the images down (see also http://www.brilliantl.com/index.php/about/ for another example of this.).

    Is this an OK way to adjust image size?

    Or is there any easy way to do this that I’m missing?

    Thanks,

    L

    Hi,

    seems that it’s working fine for you. Don’t forget to clear browser cache and hard refresh a few times after regenerating thumbnails.

    Best regards,
    Andy
