GP Created Thumbnails Dimensions

What are the thumbnail sizes that GeneraPress create when I upload images?
Is there a list with all thumbnails created by GP ( featured images for archives, popular posts, etc )
I'm getting a lot of different image sizes created so I'm really confused what is going on.
Hi there,
GP doesn't register any thumbnail sizes.
WordPress by default registers: thumb, medium, medium_large, large
All of which except from the medium_large can be set in the Settings > Media.
Those are auto created IF the original FULL size image is larger than them.
And how does GP shows different size thumbnails? Are they created dynamically by device? I just uploaded some images and you are right I can only see the full size ( original image ) and 3 other sizes as per Settings-Media.
OK, WordPress will by default display the Full Size image, with a src-set containing the other size images, the browser depending on many criteria will select the most appropriate src-set image.
If you add an Image to a Page using the Core Image Block or the GenerateBlocks Image Block, then by default it will apply the above rule. But in the block settings you can choose the Attachment size, if you want to load a specific size image.
The only place that GP will define an image size is:
1. Activate the Blog Module in Appearance > GeneratePress
2. Go to Customizer > Layout > Blog --> Featured Images, here you can specify the Attachment size you want GP to display for Posts, Pages and Archives.
In Customizer-Layout-Blog - Featured Images - Media Attachment Size - It is all set to Full. So I guess GP is not creating any other thumbnails. Thanks!
You can change the media size as you wish.
GP doesn't create thumbnails, it's managed by WP.
Thanks!
No problem :)
