Fixing Blurry Images in the NewsBlogger Theme's Related Posts Section
Content
Many users of the NewsBlogger theme report an issue where images in the 'related articles' section appear blurry or low-quality, even when the original uploaded images are high resolution. This can negatively impact the professional look of your site.
Based on community support threads, the primary cause of this problem is often a conflict with a third-party related posts plugin. The NewsBlogger theme has its own built-in related posts feature that functions correctly. When a separate plugin is used to generate this section, it may apply its own image sizing and compression algorithms, which can result in a loss of quality.
How to Troubleshoot and Fix Blurry Related Post Images
Here are the most effective steps to resolve this issue, compiled from community solutions:
- Identify the Source: First, determine if the related posts section is generated by the NewsBlogger theme or a third-party plugin. The NewsBlogger team has confirmed their built-in feature works correctly. If you are using a plugin like 'XYZ Related Posts', the issue likely originates there.
- Check Plugin Settings: If a plugin is the source, navigate to its settings. Look for options related to image dimensions, thumbnail quality, or compression. Increase the thumbnail size and set the quality to 100% or 'high'.
- Consider Using the Built-in Feature: For a more integrated solution, deactivate the third-party related posts plugin and activate the related posts feature provided by the NewsBlogger theme itself. This often resolves quality issues as the theme is designed to handle its own images optimally.
- Regenerate Thumbnails: After making changes to image sizes in your plugin or theme settings, use a free plugin like 'Regenerate Thumbnails' to delete old, cached image sizes and create new ones based on your current settings.
- Clear All Caches: Ensure you clear your WordPress cache (if using a caching plugin) and your browser cache. Old, cached versions of the blurry images might still be loading.
If the problem persists after following these steps, it is recommended to seek help in the specific support forum for the related posts plugin you are using, as they will be best equipped to address its functionality.
