Not Able to Adjust Thumbnails

    How great plugin is this! I have just one problem. As you can see on the page, 2 post thumbnails (featured images) are a little different from popular posts thumbnails. Whatever I do, I can not force popular posts to show the correct thumbnail. I tried everything. Emptying image cache in the plugin. Emptying whole cache of the plugin. Regenerate all Thumbnails plugin. Reuploading image under a different filename. I tried to first crop the thumbnail in WordPress as I want and only after that upload the image to the post as a featured image. I tried to crop all square thumbnails registered in my wordpress using Thumbnail Editor plugin. Emptying Internet browser cache and history to see the page anew. Nothing helped! It seems to me the plugin actually ignores the WordPress thumbnail/theme featured thumbnail (it ignores both) and makes own thumbnail that can not be changed or refreshed after that (after deleting image cash and generating new image, this new image has completely same name…suspicious, like it was not deleted?). I tried to localize the image in FTP and replace it, but is it the only option I have? Anyone knows a solution please?

    Hi @novakpeter,

    A “little different”? From what I can see the thumbnails are the same ones. What’s the difference?

    It seems to me the plugin actually ignores the WordPress thumbnail and makes an own thumbnail that can not be changes or refreshed after that (after deleting image cash and generating new image, this new image has completely same name…suspicious, like it was not deleted?)

    Yes, by default WordPress Popular Posts generates its own thumbnails. You can tell it to use stock WordPress thumbnails via the “Use predefined size” option (see screenshot below).

    Wow thanks! I did not know the answer will be so quick so at that time I just played with it so the thumbnails were the same. But normally it is as you say, the plugin generates its own thumbnail, so if the post thumbnail is not simple “cropped in the middle” but cropped in another way, it does not fit with WPP generated thumbnail.

    Thanks to you, I solved it this way:
    1) “Use predefined size”
    2) CSS to overrride HTML img sizes:

    .wpp-list img {
    width: 75px!important;
    height: 75px!important;
}

    (the CSS must be added according the documentation to your WPP theme)
