Have a small problem with the thumbnail size as can be seen here

http://themarlincebu.com/

Not sure if it’s the thumbnails that’s wrong size or if it’s problem with the css for the border. Anyway would appreciate a solution to fix this issue.

@alexrams: You site is in Under Construction. I cannot see it. Also please explain in details about the problem.

The thumbnails from posts on the frontpage is not correct sized, even the thumbnail settings are correct there is still a slight different of a few pixels on the hight.

I also added a border on the thumbnails ad would like to order border to pics on posts and pages as well. Any tips on how to do that.

Opened the page again so you can go have a look again http://themarlincebu.com/

I would also like to change the rollover color on the menu, how can I do that?

Plus also I want to remove the effect where the rollover color stays at the home button

@alexrams: The thumbnail size is the homepage is width 210px and height 210px. See this in theme instructions http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/simple-catch/

So, you need to add this size or it will just crop the image automatically.

You can change the hover and active of menu by adjusting the color and adding the following css in “Custom CSS” box in Theme Options panel.

#header #mainmenu ul li a:hover, #header #mainmenu ul li.current-menu-item a, #header #mainmenu ul li.current-menu-parent a, #header #mainmenu ul li.current_page_item a, #header #mainmenu ul li.current_page_ancestor a, #header #mainmenu ul li:hover > a {
background-color: #000000;
color: #FFFFFF;
}


For more color options and other features that you just change through Theme Options panel upgrade to Simple Catch Pro theme.

Hello Sakin.

Still dont get it, I tried to change the size on the thumbnails in php and css plus run the tumbnail plugin to re size all thumbnails, but still nothing changes.

Another question. Is it possible to display the posts on the frontpage next to eachoter instead of in a list. ex 3 or 4 latest posts

@alexrams: No you cannot do that.

For thumbnail it’s 210px by 210px. So, if you have exact this size on featured image then it will work fine. But if you upload larger then this then it will crop automatically.

[alexrams]

Sorry a little too much questions here. is it also possible to remove the “trace” under the main menu when you clicking links. ex the marlin cebu – about liloan.

About the thumbnails, even the photos are larger they still dont crop to the right size

[Sakin]

@alexrams: It is croping to right size see there is is the url of cropped image http://themarlincebu.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Church01-210×210.jpg . It’s exactly 210px by 210px

[alexrams]

but why is the border wrong then? you can see from the site that the padding on top en bottom is higher then the right and left side

[Sakin]

see this your original image there is border http://themarlincebu.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Church01.jpg and since this is landscape size image. It just cropped the border at the sized but couldn’t cut the top and bottom border of image. Just upload the image without the border and it will be fine.

[alexrams]

Ok I get it, the pics need to be more then 210 210 to be cropped precise. Noticed another issue. the post should have a read more link as you can see from the page now all the text is added and also looks strange. Is it possible to set a limited nr of words or charcters to be displayed on the post showing on the frontpage with a read me link to the actual post?

@alexrams: Yes you can control excerpt from your theme option page see this http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/simple-catch . See the title How to change the Excerpt Length and More Tag Text?
