I've noticed that when adding a quick post and importing an image, image sizing does not respect the settings for images under settings/media. Instead it fills the width of the post regardless of the image size. Is there a way to either modify the quickpost template, or define image sizes for those images inserted via quickpost.
Many thanks,
Andrew
Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Are you referring that image dimensions or listing page that image size?

It would be best if you can provide us some screenshot so we can better understand what is your current issue?

I have added two screen shots...One shows the result of a normal post using JCE as the editor. After uploading the image it is possible to set the image size to 40% and then when published the image is formatted as required.

The other shot is of a QuickPost. The image is uploaded in its native size of 1920px wide. There are no settings to enable resizing so when posted it fills the width of the blog.

In both cases the images ignore the image resizing settings in the backend.

Since Authors will be posting their own blogs, we do not want them to overwhelm the page with full size images...ythey will most likely use the Quick Post to add content so it is importnt that ether they can control image size in a quick post, or the back end settings would resize the image to a standard, smaller dimension. Note that I have the setting for "resize images on the server" set on...but that also doesn't seem to make any difference.

Hope that helps...

Hi Andrew,

The images that are uploaded to the quickpost 'photos' category are uploaded as post covers. The width of these post covers can only be configured under Settings>Layout>Post Covers unlike content images in JCE: http://take.ms/wZ8O3

The 'resize original image' in Settings>Media is actually for the resolution/quality of the image, not the width/height of the image in various layouts.
