    Yes, of course. What I don’t want is the thumbnail to be stretched across the full width of the single post column and cropped (top and bottom). I’d prefer to have it be centered over the post content and be, say 60% of the column width and uncropped (i.e. the image ratio should be intact).

    If you go back to the link I provided above, you’ll see what I mean about the thumbnail being stretched across the top of the post. (I removed both the embedded image and the css snippet above to return it to its native state).

    Do you understand now what I’m looking to do?

    I see the confusion — I was talking about how featured images display on single posts, not the home page/featured pages images.

    Anyway, I found a partial answer on the presscustomizr forum at http://presscustomizr.com/support-forums/topic/post-featured-image-size/, which gave me the following snippet allows me to change the width of the image, as well as allow for the full height of the image.
    ===========================================
    .tc-single-post-thumbnail-wrapper .tc-rectangular-thumb {
    height: auto !important;
    line-height: initial !important;
    max-height: none;
    }
    .tc-single-post-thumbnail-wrapper .tc-rectangular-thumb img{
    width: 100% !important;
    height: auto !important;
    position: static;
    }
    =================================================

    Now, all I have to do is figure out how to center it on the page, rather than have it aligned left. Do you have a suggestion to add to the above snippet to make it work?

    If I can make this work, then I can simply assign featured images to the posts rather than embed them within the post itself.

    Thanks.

    When featured images are turned on for single posts, they display full width, at whatever height is specified as maximum. Here is an example of a page where the feature image is displayed directly below the post title. (The image is also embedded in the post itself for contrast.)

    Not all featured images lend themselves well to being stretched over the full width of the post, and I would prefer to be able to control the sizing. My only option for this site seems to be to embed images in the posts and turn off featured images display. But I have another site with a custom posts format that does not allow embedded images — and only uses the featured image, so this becomes a problem.

    Can I change the percentage for the featured image?

    Thanks, I’ve posted my question there.

    Thanks for the advice.

    Okay, I narrowed it down to iThemes Security. Do you happen to know which setting on Security would be the issue? I have it on my main website with no problem. Also, I checked the settings and they are identical.

    Okay, sorry … can you be more specific? I don’t know what to check exactly and what the permissions should be.

    I’ve set up several WP sites over the last few years and never had this problem before. And I’ve also never had to check permissions.

    thank you.
