Use WP autogenerated medium size for the featured post image in the post page?

    Hi,

    I’d like to use the default “medium” size (WP media settings) for the image featured for single posts. Right now, it seems that it gets the full-size image and it scales it down, but I’d prefer to make use of the already generated medium size images. Any tips about what files should I modify?

    Thanks! ??

    Ok, so I managed to do it :). Just in case it is useful, here is how I did it:

    I edited class-content-post.php (in a child theme) and just after:

    <section class="entry-content <?php echo $icon_class ?>">

    I added: 

    <a  class="imagendestacada grouped_elements" rel="tc-fancybox-group<?php echo $post -> ID ?>" href="<?php $image_id = get_post_thumbnail_id();
	$image_url = wp_get_attachment_image_src($image_id,'large', true);
	echo $image_url[0];  ?>">
	<?php the_post_thumbnail('medium'); ?>
	</a>

    Can’t you simply select the medium image size when you insert the featured image? (Bottom right of screen)
