Image Sizes

The BNE Creative framework imploys a certain set of image crop sizes (i.e. thumbnails) using WordPress's add_image_size system. These image sizes get used in different places within your theme on the frontend of your website.

Since WordPress creates these thumbnails at the time you upload an image, it's important to note that when you install your new theme, any previously uploaded images will not have thumbnails for you new theme's image crop sizes. So, it's best to always best to re-generate your thumbnails.

Framework Image Sizes

Below are the standard image sizes and thumbnail ID's that the framework creates. These are the sizes used in Sweetness, but note that a few of these sizes may have been changed slightly if you're using a different theme.

Registered Name User-friendly Name Width Height Hard Crop
slider-full Slider Full 1200 400 true
square-small Small Square 130 130 true
square-smaller Smaller Square 70 70 true
square-smallest Smallest Square 45 45 true
post-thumbnail Default Post Thumbnail 1200 99999 false
Note: The crop size for the Default Post Thumbnail -- the "Featured Image", which is typically for blog post, is set to a max width of 1200. The reason we use this number is because single blog post my be set to full width (no sidebars). 1200px is also the max content area width of our themes.
