[Resolved] Featured image shortcode: how to pick right image size?

[Marc]

Hi there,

I created a header element, with a shortcode for the featured image like suggested here:
– https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/featured-image-shortcode/

Works great!

However, it seems to pick the full size image? Actually I only need a 254x254px image. Is there a way to pick the 300x300px version of the image that gets created when uploading a square image?

Hi there,

change this line:

return get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID);

to:

return get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID, 'thumbnail' );

More info on that function here:

Thnx David!

‘thumbnail’ seems a bit too small in some cases, however ‘medium’ looks good so far! 😀

Glad to hear that
