Adjust Thumbnail Images

If you are transitioning your site from the original YaleSites Themes, the thumbnail images carried over from older YaleSites may need to be regenerated in order to have the correct size for the new 2016 themes. Thumbnail images may appear too small or they may be blurry by being stretched up in size. 

Optimum Image Sizes: In the News Content Type your image can be up to 500px wide, which is the optimal size for the News pages. Your image will be sized down to 276px wide for the News teaser lists.

Adjust Thumbnail Images

  1. Go to Configuration > Media >Image Styles and edit the image style that’s being used. For News, the image style is “landscape_thumbnail”.
  2. Click on the Override Defaults button. That’s all you need to do, don’t change anything.
