Hi,
I need to reduce cover image size on my easy social.
It is possible to do it directly by back end? What I have to do?

Could you please help me?

Thank you in advance
Antonio
The cover size is determined by the image sizes. This is one of many reasons why image sizes should be configurable by the administrator so that we can determine the size to fit well with our template to maximize bandwidth, quality, and speed.

Hi Antonio,

I am sorry for the late reply.
I believe currently there is no setting available to configure this, however, you can voice this out here: stackideas.com/voices/easysocial .

Hi Josh,

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks.

I assume you are using CSS to "change" the image size? What code are you using to change the size and what are you after in terms of sizing?

Hi Antonio,

I am sorry for the late reply.
May I know, what are you mean by "changing image size the windows remains the same" and what are you after in terms of sizing?

By the way, I am really sorry, but we are actually quite tied up with our own internal development and we wouldn't be able to assist you with these customization right now ;( If this a priority, please do post them on our sales section at https://crm.stackideas.com and our sales department would get back to you with a proper quote.

Please advise.

Hi Mohdyasseribz,
I was replayed to Josh that said the cover size is determined by the image sizes and it is not true beacause I upload a little image and the window dimension did not changed.

I checked and I found variable where you can change the dimension but changing it nothing happened.
There is some CSS file where I can make change?

Thank you
Antonio

style="background-image: url(<?php echo $newCover->getSource('large');

// Cover sizes
define('SOCIAL_COVER_SMALL', 'small');
define('SOCIAL_COVER_LARGE', 'large');
define('SOCIAL_COVER_DEFAULT', 'default');

// Cover dimensions
define('SOCIAL_COVER_SMALL_WIDTH', 320);
define('SOCIAL_COVER_SMALL_HEIGHT', 120);
define('SOCIAL_COVER_LARGE_WIDTH', 960);
define('SOCIAL_COVER_LARGE_HEIGHT', 360);

I looked into this again, and I stand by my original statement. Perhaps you might be confusing the cover display with the actual raw image. My post above was purely aimed at raw images. In terms of display responsive design determines the display size (different from the raw image). If you look at the cover source on my profile you will see that the image is coming from the large image. To be extra sure of this you can view the image in the popbox and right click the image source and see that they are exactly the same.

It's best to either create a template override of ES's custom.css file or to use a custom CSS module. The width should always be 100% so your focus should be modifying the display height. Here is a sample of modifying the display height of a cover:

.es-cover-container {
padding-top: 50% !important;
}


Set the percentage to what ever value you would like it to be. The default is 33.3333%.

Hi Josh,

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Antonio,

I am really sorry. I believe this feature; configurable window dimension is not available in the current system. If this is a priority, please do post them on our sales section at https://crm.stackideas.com and our sales department would get back to you with a proper quote.

Hope this can help.
