roster image vs player bio image – can they be seperate

    Well I have some great player images, but when I upload them as a ‘featured image’, they get shrunken down to a tiny 48k (which is fine) and look ok in the roster.

    Then you click the player and it uses the same image except stretches it so it looks completely distorted.

    So the questions;
    1. Is this the correct behavior?

    2. If so, why? I would think upload it a bit higher for the bio page, and shrink down for the roster page.

    3. If that’s how it supposed to work, is there an update/fix in mind to use one pic for the roster, and one for the bio since it just looks horrible.

    Hi xlancealotx,
    Not this is not the correct behavior, as you can see on the MSTW development site.

    Featured images (aka thumbnails) can be a bit tricky and are somewhat theme dependent.

    What size are the original images and how are you uploading the featured images? I suggest you create images at the proper size for the bio pages (nominally 150×150), then upload them as FULL SIZE, not THUMBNAIL, or SMALL or whatever your theme offers.

    From there, there are settings in the plugin’s Display Settings to control the size of the roster table and player bio images.

    Let me know.

    Hey Mark, thanks for the prompt reply. I started from scratch, took a nice 150 shot of my daughter and uploaded (there is no setting for size, using the fizz theme), but the details do show 150×150. Now the image detail shows the following url;
    https://wp.powervolleyballacademy.com/?attachment_id=1742 (pic looks perfect), that image URL is https://wp.powervolleyballacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/sophie_150.jpg (also looks perfect).

    Now, from the admin, I goto player, look at the featured image, pick that one. I then re-look to confirm and see:
    ATTACHMENT DETAILS
    sophie_150.jpg
    March 13, 2014
    150 × 160

    Then I save, look at the player page: https://wp.powervolleyballacademy.com/players/sophie and the image looks horrible, and the image URL is https://wp.powervolleyballacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/sophie_150-53×53.jpg so naturally that is what the issue is.

    Any clue as I don’t see anything on the media upload section and the URL it shows is correct.

    Thanks for the reply and the plugin!

    Okay, it’s all coming back to me now. Take a look at your Dashboard->Settings->Media. See how the Thumbnail size is set.

    Thanks for the links BTW, they really help.

    Hi xlancealotx,
    Upon further review …

    I just tested this on my dev site, and the Table display settings did not work but the Bio/Gallery settings did. I’ll need to patch this in the next release. In the meantime, it looks like you can adjust the table settings by modifying this rule in the plugin’s stylesheet (css/mstw-tr-styles.css).

    .mstw-tr-table td img {
	border: 1px solid #BBB;
	padding: 5px;
	background-color: #EEE;
	margin-left: 10px;
	height: 64px;
	width: 64px;
}

    Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
