featured image mayhem

  • hello,

    I just can’t figure out what is happening with the featured image of posts: I change it, it shows fine and then it reverts back to an old version that does not even exist anymore in the media library !
    It really messes with my design. Help !

    Rhank you.

    I just realized that maybe the theme is creating a cropped up version of the featured image of each post to put on top.
    This is for instance one of those posts: https://mariannesouliez.com/2015/07/09/mourir-sage/
    the image on top is not the featured image mourir-sage-slide-def.jpg (which is 120×550), but an image called mourir-sage-slide-def-1170×550.jpg

    The weird thing is that just when I changed the featured image, it first showed full size in the post (which is what I want), and then the next time I went on the page, it had this cropped version instead.

    If you find any sense in this, thanks !

    It totally makes sense with the featured image. Most of the themes are now making such implementations where thumbnails get generated after a user visits the specific page. More like an OTA Thumbnail generation, this is why it loaded full image at first and then presented the cropped version.

    I would say you need to take a look at your single.php file.
