I’m using this code: set_post_thumbnail_size(726, 200, true); My objective is to input any size

  • 0

I’m using this code:

set_post_thumbnail_size(726, 200, true);

My objective is to input any size image and let WP crop it and resize it to 726×200.

I got it working ONE time, just once.
Now it doesn’t work anymore. I tried 5 different servers. I tried localhost with xampp and wamp. Nothing!

The image resizes fine but it doesn’t get cropped as it should.

I’ve been looking for answers for the past 5 hours with no luck.
GD is loaded in PHP. I tried different httpd.conf and php.ini tricks and nothing works.
I tried removing the image from the gallery and adding it again as some people suggest and still nothing.

I’m desperate!

Is this a bug?

An image so you can see what’s wrong. The image is being resized only but it should be cropped and it should span to the end of the container.

    OMG, I got it working again. I found the culprit! Yessss! It turns out that I was passing a variable instead of an actual value like this set_post_thumbnail_size($variable, 200, true), but if I pass the actual value like this set_post_thumbnail_size(726, 200, true) IT WORKS! Can’t believe I just wasted 5 hours…
