Problem uploading images – system changed in last week?

    Zan – I deleted a couple photos and sure enough they came off of the blog too, just as you’d said. Thanks!
    I sure appreciate your help again!

  • Chrisrust,

    Hi there – I’m sorry you’re still having some issues with the new interface!

    if I click on the photo in Chrome it just gets highlighted. The button to edit the photo’s settings is there but not the dynamic resize handles. But they are there in Firefox.

    This makes me both think you don’t see the edit image icon, and that you do :) But I think what you mean is that you just don’t see image resizing on the image itself. This is something that’s web-kit-centric (web-kit is Firefox), so you will be able to use it in Firefox, but not in other browsers. It’s one of those things that we are always chasing what the browsers are changing.

    My other problem is that I’m sure WordPress used to offer me an largest image size which was the same as the column width but now it offers the full size of the image which then displays distoprted to fit the column.

    Now, when you upload images, or add images to the post, you can edit the size right there in the Add Media interface (this was not the case just a few days ago – previously you had to go to your media library to make these edits). You’ll see an “edit image” link next to the image thumbnail on the right. Using this functionality should help you not get distortion (it should do the calculation for you, in other words).

    This should help get you started in the right direction, but let me know if you’re still having difficulties with distortion.

    Cheers!

    @zandyring-IMHO the link to edit the image is uncomfortably close to the delete link. Thanks for listening.

  • @justjennifer,

    Great point – thanks! I’ll pass it along :)
