Hi there, me again 🙂
firstly. what is the correct size for images to be added as featured on blog posts? As when I upload and attach (I have read how to do this) they all come out different sizes and part is cut off. I saw that you mentioned previously for the slider that all image sizes must be the same so I wondered if it should be the case here?
Secondly, is there a way that I can reduce the no., of posts shown on the front page?
Thirdly, I have widgets in the footer section being ways that people can donate but need to add a few more to this, how do I make them smaller and display all in one line (I need to add 3 more)
fourthly, can I add text to the blog (frontpage) image when moused over or is this only in the pro theme
finally, I have been using Nextgen gallery but after a few problems (bad update) I have been somewhat put off as to reload all the animals would be quite a mission so I wanted to revert it to media gallery. I found coding (on google) that you can add in function.php to add in columns so that they can be sorted but I am unsure where it must go (at the beginning, middle, end and I don’t want to mess up the theme. would you check it for me and advise? I would really love to have your ‘beautify’ gallery option working but at present it is just showing normally!
Why do all my images look stretched?
would you check out my site and advise please?
Coding: to add column to filter by in media gallery
<?php
// Add the column
function filename_column( $cols ) {
$cols[“filename”} = “Filename”;
return $cols;
}
// Display filenames
function filename_value( $column_name, $id ) {
$meta = wp_get_attachment_metadata($id);
echo substr( strrchr($meta[‘file’], ‘/’ ), 1);
// Register the column a sortable & sort by name
function filename_column_sortable( $cols ) {
$cols[“filename”] = “name”;
return $cols;
}
// Hook actions to admin_init
function hook_new_media_columns( ) {
add_filter( ‘manage_media_columns’, ‘filename_column’ );
add_action( ‘manage_media_custom_column’, ‘filename_value’, 10, 2 );
add_filter( ‘admin_upload_sortable_columns’, ‘filename_column_sortable’ );
}
add_action ( ‘admin_init’, ‘hook_new_media_columns’ );
}
?>
