Image Sizing

The following image sizing options are available in Flothemes > General Settings > Image Sizes:

Flothemes_Options_‹_Como_—_WordPress

This is the option for the full screen slideshow images. Here you can set the max width, 1920 is recommended, however if using a retina screen, 2880px will work.

single-post-image

This is the size of the featured image inside a single post. Currently its set to square sizing, however this can be changed by changing the height. I would recommend 1920 x 1280px if using landscape images.

card-grid-view-images

The following settings set the featured image sizing for card, and grid view images. Remember the height for these can be set in Flothemes > General Settings > Layout Options. This is merely for featured images, set the same height in layout options.

card-grid-view-images

Single gallery grid allows you to set the width of the images in your grid view galleries. If using 3 columns its recommended to increase this size to 600px.

This is for the list view with text under. Set the width and height here.
