Thumbnail size and post vs page questions

    I’m waiting to have my thumbnails to be much larger than what gets generated. I’ve increased the size in the settings but it doesn’t seem to make any difference. What do I need to do?

    Also, in the training videos, it shows the main or begging of an album being created in a blog post and when the thumbnail is clicked it goes to a page with the photos on it. I am creating a family photo website with a menu system to parent/child pages. Are both methods ok or is one better than the other?

    Thanks,
    Frank

    @diamondminer – It is generally not recommended to set the thumbnails to be larger than the ones generated for the gallery itself (it can lead to poor quality in the thumbnails), although if you wish to over-ride the thumbnail sizes for the inserted display you will find the settings to do in the customizations accordion panel for that specific display.

    As to the navigation on your site versus an album -> sub-album -> gallery hierarchy, that would be best left to your choice and could be dependent on a number of variables depending how you are structuring the site in general. I would probably lean towards a system that uses the menu although you may be able to leverage the “Link to page” options for galleries to use both.

    Thanks!

    Thank you! This plugin is awesome, I had been looking for what it does for a while. I use the DIVI theme from Elegant Themes and the gallery function from them is good but misses the mark compared to what you provide.
    Thanks again,
