Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! Because this requires a template change, 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.

After setting up the child theme, add the following code in your Child Theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter( 'wp_image_editors', 'change_graphic_lib' );

function change_graphic_lib($array) {
return array( 'WP_Image_Editor_GD', 'WP_Image_Editor_Imagick' );
}

Let us know how this goes!

I have setup my child theme. I am trying to look where the directory of the themes are for copying and pasting the View to be changed. In my File Manager in my hosting site, I am looking at the public_html/wp-admin folder. Am I looking at the right location? Thanks.

Hi there,

Please add provided code under public_html/wp-content/themes/x-child/functions.php file.

Hope it helps.

Hi There,

The images are now having the functionality to upload.
I have uploaded the provided image (hero large); Please have a look and confirm.

Happy to help!

I could now see the image. How did you fix it? For my future reference. Thanks.

How do I make the image I just uploaded to be full width and height? I tried background-size: cover; in the Style box in Cornerstone but it didn’t work.

Hi there,

Please disable ‘column container’ option from row settings.
Add width: 100%; in image’s style field.

Hope it helps.

[rustedfingers]

How do I set the size of the background image so that the width fits to the maximum width of the browser and the height adjusts in accordance to the aspect ratio? I tried the property background-size: cover, contain and setting 100% 100% property but it did not work.

Thank you for your help as always!

Hi,

I think it would be easier to control if you use the revslider.

Please refer to the links below

Hope that helps.

I am again getting an HTTP error uploading attached image. Hope you can check. Thanks.

Hi there,

You image is not uploaded due to our file-size limit of 512KB. You can try an online service to share your image. In the meantime, please check the following resource and see if that helps (https://themeskills.com/fix-http-error-when-uploading-images-to-wordpress/).

Thanks!
