Featured Images size issue

Hi Emma!

If you’ve changed the size in the functions.php of your child theme correctly, it should work.

Some possibilities:
– Make sure the child theme is the active theme, not the parent one
– Has the child theme function somehow been edited back to default values?
– Does the functions file of the child theme have any error that may break the alx_setup function?
– Are you editing the size for thumb-medium as well? The large one shows up in the featured spot, the medium one shows for all the others – so that would need to be edited too.

Since you had it working, and now it suddently does not, it sounds like you may have made some code change that broke/changed the stuff back to default.

You would need to include the whole alx_setup function in the child theme, with your edits, like this:

function alx_setup() {
	// Enable automatic feed links
	add_theme_support( 'automatic-feed-links' );

	// Enable featured image
	add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );

	// Enable post format support
	add_theme_support( 'post-formats', array( 'audio', 'aside', 'chat', 'gallery', 'image', 'link', 'quote', 'status', 'video' ) );

	// Declare WooCommerce support
	add_theme_support( 'woocommerce' );

	// Thumbnail sizes
	add_image_size( 'thumb-small', 160, 160, true );
	add_image_size( 'thumb-medium', 520, 318, true );
	add_image_size( 'thumb-large', 720, 440, true );

	// Custom menu areas
	register_nav_menus( array(
		'topbar' => 'Topbar',
		'header' => 'Header',
		'footer' => 'Footer',
	) );
}
