    Hi,
    We are using Enfold and we wish to create 2 directories with the masonry media element (Avia page Builder). We want to create theme for 2 custom post types we produced.

    As you will see with the 2 examples below, we cannot get a proper quality with the images inserted as featured images. At times, it is due to poor quality of the original pictures but sometimes, even in the image is of reasonable quality, the result is poor, either blurred or with some sort of veil on the picture. What is the explanation for that? More specifically, thses are my questions:
    – what should be the exact size these featured images to get the best neat appearance for our pictures?
    – I tried several options for the masonry templates or the picture sizes. It does not make any difference as no change appears to be taken into account, as if something was blocked. What can be the explanation of this “frozen” situation?

    Thanks in advance for your answers

    Hey Ressources_Formation,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    Looks like the masonry element is using a smaller version of the images (180x180px) which is why the images are blurry. It should be using the masonry thumbnail by default, which has a maximum width of 705px.

    Did you adjust or select a different thumbnail in the Styling > Masonry Settings > Image Size settings? Please try to select a different thumbnail with larger dimension like the Masonry or Gallery thumbnail. You should also try to temporarily deactivate the image compression plugin, see if it changes anything.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Hello, Ismael
    Thanks for your answers.
    Displaying the masonry with the 705 px width setting make things a little better, we are almost there. As asked in my revious message, could you tell me what the exact size the original pictures should be so that I can give my customers precise information about that? I deactivated the image compresssion on the thumbnails, it does not make any real difference…

    Another small problem we would like to solve: whenever we display a category and its articles/posts; we get the full display of the article and not the usual title and abstract and Read more display (see this example: https://aciege.org/category/offres-demploi/). I could not find where we can change this setting, could you please tell me how to do that in Enfold?

    Thanks in advance, have a nice day

    Hi,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    1.) The maximum size of the masonry thumbnail is 705px so uploading images with that exact same size should be fine, uploading a larger image is recommended.

    2.) Please try to add this code in the functions.php to display the post summary and read more link in the category pages.

    function change_blog_archive_style() {	
    	global $avia_config;
    	if(!is_single()){ $avia_config['blog_content'] = "excerpt_read_more"; }
    }
    add_action('get_header', 'change_blog_archive_style');
    

    Best regards,
    Ismael
