    Hi,

    Is there any way to change the size of the featured images when the excerpts of blog posts appear on the main blog page?  I would like just a small image to appear and it seems as though I therefore have to set a  featured image.  Is there another way?

    Thanks.

    Yes, if you look in your Genesis Theme Settings page under “Content Archives” you’ll need to check the box that says – “Include the Featured Image?” then select the image size. If you need to add a different image size other than what is available in the dropdown list, you can do this by adding the sizes in your functions file. You’ll see something like this –

    // Add new image sizes
    add_image_size( 'featured-img', 630, 320, TRUE );
    add_image_size( 'featured-page', 276, 140, TRUE );
    add_image_size( 'portfolio-thumbnail', 264, 200, TRUE );

    ….just copy/paste, rename, and change the sizes like this –

    add_image_size( 'blog-img', 250, 150, TRUE );

    Are these sizes fixed options and all uploaded files should conform to them?  If an uploaded file fails to conform, is the pix scaled (distorted), cropped, or ignored?

    Thanks, Dan

    It should adjust to whatever you set the image to. Its a Genesis feature.
