I’m trying to achieve a fast page load times and I need to keep the number of files on my server low due to my host’s requirements. Right now X loads huge size photos on my homepage creating a long load time and adds sizes I’ll never use on my server.
On my homepage I am using the recent posts shortcode to add info and want to use image sizes that are close to the size of the images in the layout. (I already have modified recent posts shortcode to select image name size).
I also want to choose and set a specific size for the images loading on my archive pages.
I am using an edge to edge featured image on my page/posts pages which I use the WP large image size instead of ‘entry’ or ‘entry-cropped’ so I want to not have the size generate those sizes as they are not needed or used.
I’ve been able to successfully add my own custom image sizes and names via functions.php. I’ve tried various methods to remove X’s default image names and sizes but nothing is working.
How do I remove all of the default image names and sizes (entry, entry-cropped, etc.) set by X?
