when add media (photos) in WordPress

  • Why does it upload the low quality version? I have a page like this

    block of Text Image
    Image block of Text
    block of Text Image

    When I click on Add Media.. it always add a low quality version of an image which I had done in 1024. How do I only use the 1024 instead of having to click it to view the higher resolution image. In dreamweaver I can use the visual composer to do this.. but not sure how to do this for WordPress

  • When you upload an image, WordPress will make 3 thumbnails from it. The sizes of the 3 types of thumbnail are specified at Admin page > Settings > Media.

    Your webpage may be using one of these thumbnails, not the original image. Look at the markup for the poor quality image to find out which of the three types of thumbnail it is. In settings, increase the size. Ideally the thumbnail size should at or near the size at which your theme shows the image.

    If you alter thumbnail size settings, you need to regenerate existing thumbnails:
