Possible to use 'Custom image sizes' instead of 'Thumbnail size'

  • Great plugin, thank you very much!

    I have a question. The plugin uses the ‘Thumbnail size’ as specified in the Media settings page: SETTINGS > MEDIA

    I have some custom image sizes registered via my functions.php file. I also have a function in there to enable those custom image sizes to be selectable when creating a gallery (there’s a default wordpress dropdown that displays ‘Thumbnail’, ‘Medium’, ‘Large’ and ‘Full’, plus my custom sizes).

    It would appear that the options in this dropdown are ignored by the plugin, and only the ‘Thumbnail’ size is ever used. Is there a way to override this, as I’m not sure I want to set all my thumbnails across the site to the size I want to use for the gallery?

  • I would love to know how to do this, also! ??
    One workaround I used was to change my thumbnail size in WP Dashboard –> Media from 150 to 225, but I really would prefer to use one of the other predefined image sizes.

    Hope we get an answer quickly!

    Eventually there will be an update where you can select a size defined by add_image_size(), but as of right now I’m just way too busy with life to really dig into that functionality.

    I can probably help you get it working the way you want with a little bit of hacking. Are you using add_image_size() to generate new image sizes on media upload?

    Thanks!

    Hi ??
    Yes I am using the add_image_size() code in my functions.php file.

    Try out this tutorial to add your custom image size to the media gallery UI: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/adding-custom-images-sizes-to-the-wordpress-media-library/

    Then, in the functions/three-dot-nine.php file change line 54 from:

    $thumbnail_width = get_option('thumbnail_size_w');

    to

    $thumbnail_width = NEW WIDTH

    NEW WIDTH would be the width of you specified in the add_image_size() you have already set up.

    I have NOT tested this out, but I think it should work. Let me know how it goes!

    hello again and thank you for this ??

    if i make changes to three-dot-nine will the changes get over-written in plugin updates?
    Thanks in advance, and my profuse apologies if this is already covered in the docs.

    That is true. The changes will be overwritten in the next update. However, I hope to add in the option of a custom image width in the next update. So, in theory you would just have to use that new feature to get apply your custom image width.

    Let me know how it works out. Thanks!

    hey, the same problem here. unfortunately the workaround with $thumbnail_width = get_option('thumbnail_size_w'); brokes a gallery when a ‘medium’ size has been chosen. So please, release an update as soon as possible, because it’s a really nice plugin!
