    Hi,
    I was/am struggling with the blog page showing the correct sized image (original 600×600) but the featured image was still stretched and not proportional . I understand that the solution is to use the plugin “simple image sizes”, which I have done . I regenerated the thumbnails, cleared the cache, etc. but the image size on the post is still stretched.

    The whole thing had another nasty side-effect. The image slider on the front page used to show the full image (845×684) but since then the images as cropped . In desperation I have put the sizes back to the way they where, regenerated, even uploaded the images new, etc. However, now I have screwed up my front-page slider and still have not solved the featured image in my post.

    Please help!
    Thank you

    PS: I only know the basics of HTML-coding.

    Hi ajgwnyc!

    It looks like you edited the entry without sidebar size to 600 x 423. Those images will always use the full width of the page but you can set their width to auto by adding this to your custom CSS.

    #top .fullsize .template-blog .big-preview img {
    width: auto !important;
    margin: 0px auto;
}

    Best regards,
    Elliott

    Hi Elliott,

    Thank you for your quick answer. I tried adding the suggested code in General settings -> Quick CSS – still the 600×423. Removed in Quick CSS and added to custom.css in Themes -> Enfold -> CSS – also no change. Am I correct that this is done in the enfold-folder and not the child-theme? Currently the child-theme only contains the two “empty” functions.php and style.css files.

    Best regards,
    Andreas

    Ups, hit send too fast.

    I got it to work somewhat through the “simple image size”-plugin and changing “entry_without_sidebar size” and “entry_without_sidebar size” to NO-cropping.

    As for the second part regarding the images in the Accordion Slider. These images where the correct size (845×684) but are now in a square shape and cropped. Any thoughts?

    Best regards,
    Andreas

    Hi,

    Not 100% what I did but I played with Dimensions in General Layout and somehow got it to work. All solved.
    Best regards,
