Not showing images the right size.

Post by Reno F. Holland »

I installed version 4.5 in Joomla 4.05 with the default Cassiopeia template.

The images in the Categories- and Category Views show up smaller than I have specified in the Options/Thumbnails.

On my live site with Joomla 3.9 it works correctly.

Can it be that the Cassiopeia template is interfering with the gallery options?

Thank you,
Reno

Hi, there can be a lot of different reasons. Mostly, new design methods change the image sizes to fit e.g. columns width, etc. But there can be even other reasons like:

- not recreating thumbnails after changing the dimensions
- not cleaning the cache (if used) after changing the parameters
- etc.

To see if correct size image were loaded, just disable all the CSS on your site (e.g. with help of Google Devtools) or see the source code and check the link to the thumbnail image for the size, etc.

Thank you Jan.

I decided to install Phoca Photo 4.0 Beta and that one displays the images at the correct size.
So I have a workaround.
