Could I add something to my child theme functions.php to change the thumbnail size used for the entry-featured entry-thumb class. I want to switch the entry-featured thumbnail size for my large thumbnail size in the entry-thumb div at the beginning of each blog post. I can accomplish what I want in the following code, I just don’t know how to add this to my functions.php so it won’t be erased by a theme update. Thanks.

if ( ! function_exists( 'x_featured_image' ) ) :
  function x_featured_image( $cropped = '' ) {

    $stack     = x_get_stack();
    $fullwidth = ( in_array( 'x-full-width-active', get_body_class() ) ) ? true : false;

    if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {

      if ( $cropped == 'cropped' ) {
        if ( $fullwidth ) {
          $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'entry-cropped-fullwidth', NULL );
        } else {
          $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'entry-cropped', NULL );
        }
      } else {
        if ( $fullwidth ) {
          $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'large', NULL );
        } else {
          $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'entry', NULL );
        }
      }

      switch ( is_singular() ) {
        case true:
          printf( '<div class="entry-thumb">%s</div>', $thumb );
          break;
        case false:
          printf( '<a href="%1$s" class="entry-thumb" title="%2$s">%3$s</a>',
            esc_url( get_permalink() ),
            esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'Permalink to: "%s"', '__x__' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ) ),
            $thumb
          );
          break;
      }

    }

  }
endif;

Hi There,

Yes, you can add that code on your child theme’s functions.php file. Child theme is safe from theme update.
In case you don’t have a child theme yet, I’d advise that you setup a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released. After your child theme is setup, please review how we recommend making template changes in Customization Best Practices.

Thanks, I’m just not sure exactly how to implement it. I would have to wrap it in a custom function correct? Could you just tell me how to implement the code so it would work in my child theme functions.php?

Hi there,

You need to add that code on your child theme’s functions.php file. If the code is correct then it should work.

Thanks!
