Photos

  • Hi Taras,
    I have a few questions related to photos.

    1. When uploading photos in block editor I use Stacted and I wonder if it’s possible to have a larger size for photos. The dimensions of uploaded photos are 1200x800px, but in the blog, they appear to be a smaller size.

    2. I also use gutter 20, but in the mobile version, the gutter disappears.

    3. At the end of the blog post, there is sections Related. Now I have a link to related topics. Is it possible to have a photo shown as well?

    Thank you for your help,
    Almira

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  • Hello Almira,

    “When uploading photos in block editor I use Stacted and I wonder …”
    – Since this functionality comes from the core (or a special plugin which is installed at WordPress.com), image sizes are also controlled by the core. I’ve checked this block and it looks like it does not provide any options for the image size.

    “The dimensions of uploaded photos are 1200x800px, but in the blog, they appear to be a smaller size. “
    – Could you please post a link the post where this gallery is located, so I can inspect the page?

    “I also use gutter 20, but in the mobile version, the gutter disappears.”
    – It looks like the block comes with a separate option for a mobile gutter: https://snipboard.io/JmK5hd.jpg

    Have you tried this option?

    “At the end of the blog post, there is sections Related. Now I have a link to related topics. Is it possible to have a photo shown as well?”
    – Make sure the option for displaying images in this section is enabled. For more information, please see this post: https://wordpress.com/support/related-posts/#enable-related-posts

    Let me know if you have any additional questions.

    Kind regards,
    Taras

  • Thank you for your very fast reply.

    Gutter for mobile … thx, I didn’t pay attention to that at all.

    About section Related. Thank you :) And I wonder, is it possible to have 6 or 9 related stories instead of 3?

    About photo size.
    Link to the post where uploaded photos in block editor I use Stacted:
    Kako prijazen je Maribor invalidom

    Link to photos were uploaded to full size:
    In the middle of nowhere

    The thing is, I saw blog here that uses your theme, that has wery beautifully done with the representation of photos, and I wonder how this size of photos is done:
    Turkmenistan – The irresistible lure of the unknown

    Thank you

  • Almira,

    The owner of that website uses a wide alignment for the galleries and columns: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/gallery-block/#block-toolbar

    Note, wide and full-width alignment options are available only if the page does not have an active sidebar.

    Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

    Kind regards,
    Taras

  • Great … photos look so much better now :)

    So, 2 more questions :D

    Is it possible to have 6 or 9 related stories instead of 3 in the Related section?

    Is possible to have another column in Footer, so 5 instead of 4?

    Thank you,
    A.

  • Almira,

    “Is it possible to have 6 or 9 related stories instead of 3 in the Related section?”
    – I am sorry that I’ve missed this question in your previous post. By default WordPress.com displays only three posts in the Related section. Unfortunately, it does not provide an option to change this value.

    “Is possible to have another column in Footer, so 5 instead of 4?”
    – Sure. Please add this custom CSS to your site:

    
    /* Change columns number in the footer widget area. */
    @media (min-width: 992px) {
      .footer-widgets .widget {
        width: 20%;
      }
      
      .footer-widgets .widget:not(:nth-of-type(5n)) {
        border-right: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.1);
      }
    }
    

    Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

    Kind regards,
    Taras
