Feature Image Size

Hmmm, will have to check why it happens, but as temporary measure you can add the following rule to your theme’s CSS

.cat-post-thumbnail img {
width: 120px;
height: 85px;
}

This distorts the images that I actually want to be 150 x 80, the size of the larger feature image. It distorts the images A LOT when I use this:

.cat-post-thumbnail img {
width: 150px;
height: 80px;
}

You can see the image size and dimensions that I need on the same sidebar under “You May Also Like.”

Hello SisterhoodAgenda,

we implement a brand new feature called “Use CSS cropping” in the “Thumbnails” area under with and height.

If you want you can test this feature which is actually only on GitHub available? (1)

Please leave us a reply, it “Use CSS cropping” works for you.
Thanks for your assigned star for our widget with all availabilities. ??
Further good participation.

(1) Are you familair with GitHub? You can download the code there (https://github.com/mkrdip/category-posts-widget) and copy it to your plugin folder ([your-wp-installation]/wp-content/plugins/category-posts-widget) to your wordpress installation.

Thanks. Waiting for the pro version. I will buy a developer license. Your plugin is top rated.
A temporary solution for thumbnails in the meantime…

add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );
add_image_size( 'cat-post-thumbnail', 150, 80, true ); // Hard Crop Mode
add_image_size( 'cat-post-thumbnail', 150, 80 ); // Soft Crop Mode
add_image_size( 'cat-post-thumbnail', 150, 9999 ); // Unlimited Height Mode

The code format is: add_image_size( ‘name-of-size’, width, height, crop mode );
Choose one of the three methods listed above
Now save the functions.php file
Install ‘Ajax Thumbnail Rebuild’ Plugin and run for ‘All Sizes’ . That should do it.
