Car Dealer User Guide

The default image dimensions provided by WordPress are standard image sizes, but themes may require images of different sizes depending on the layout requirements. Therefore, the Car Dealer theme includes the following custom image sizes.

Image Size Name	Image Width	Image Height	Cropped
cardealer-blog-thumb	1170	500	true
cardealer-homepage-thumb	700	700	true
cardealer-team-thumb	430	450	true
cardealer-testimonials-thumb	450	189	true
cardealer-50×50	50	50	true
cardealer-post_nav	124	74	true
car_thumbnail	190	138	true
car_catalog_image	265	190	true
car_single_slider	876	535	true
car_tabs_image	430	321	true

Despite this, users sometimes require a different image size as per the requirement. You must add custom image size(s) if you have any such requirements. To add your custom image size(s), you’ll need to follow below two steps:

• Step 1. Register Image Sizes
• Step 2. Regenerate Thumbnails

Register Image Sizes

To add a new image size, hook your custom function to the cardealer_image_sizes filter hook. Here below is the sample code, which you can add in the child theme’s functions.php.

function cardealer_child_image_sizes( $image_sizes ) {
	// Add your image sizes.
	$image_sizes['cardealer_custom_200'] = array(
		'name'      => 'cardealer_custom_200',
		'width'     => 200,
		'height'    => 200,
		'crop'      => true,
		'size_name' => esc_html__( 'CarDealer Custom 200', 'cardealer-child' ),
	);
	return $image_sizes;
}
add_filter( 'cardealer_image_sizes', 'cardealer_child_image_sizes' );

Please refer to the below documents for detailed information about the image size and names and labels of the image sizes.

Regenerate Thumbnails

If you add new image sizes to your existing site, you must regenerate the thumbnails. This is necessary because WordPress will only resize images that have been uploaded after registering the new image size.

Therefore any image (added/uploaded before registration of the new image size) will not have any new size. So you need to regenerate the new image size for the old images.

To regenerate the image, you can use the below plugins. For details about settings and usage, please refer to the instructions provided on the plugins page.

1. Regenerate Thumbnails
2. AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild

The newly added image size and size names will appear in different sections of the site.
