Shortening Top Slider-Duena

Hi
slider’s height calculates automatically by JavaScript. You can change your code to

#slider-wrapper .flexslider {
  height: 100px !important;
  overflow: hidden;
}

It’s not the best practice but easiest way and it must work

Thank you so much, that worked!

I have a follow-up question. Now that I’ve shortened the height, naturally my pictures are cutting off instead of adjusting to the new frame. Do you know the best way to adjust my featured images so that they fit the new slider size rather than being cut off in an awkward place?

Thanks,

Elizabeth

It will be little harder.
First of all you need to create your own Child Theme for Duena (you can find tutorial on Codex or get Child theme example for Duena here)
Then:
– If you use child theme from example – open file functions.php and add here next code:

function duena_child_slider_thumb_size($sizes) {
	// Set any value you want and regenerate thumbnail
	$sizes['slider-post-thumbnail']['height'] = 100;
	return $sizes;
}
add_filter( 'intermediate_image_sizes_advanced', 'duena_child_slider_thumb_size' );

– If you create own child theme – create in child theme’s directory file functions.php and add here next code:

<?php
/**
 * duena child theme function
 */

function duena_child_slider_thumb_size($sizes) {

	// Set any value you want and regenerate thumbnail
	$sizes['slider-post-thumbnail']['height'] = 100;

	return $sizes;
}

add_filter( 'intermediate_image_sizes_advanced', 'duena_child_slider_thumb_size' );

?>

To resize already existing images you need to regenerate your images with plugin Regenerate Thumbnails

Hi,

I tried adding the Child theme example but when I uploaded it to the new themes directory, I got this message; “The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.

Name Description
Duena-Child The parent theme is missing. Please install the “Duena” parent theme.”

Sorry in advance for my ignorance, but if I already have the Duena theme installed, isn’t this the parent theme?

I’d love some help!

Thanks,

Elizabeth
