Hi,
On my home page using recent post from the blog- http://kastylephotography.net and any archive pages. here is a category archive page- http://kastylephotography.net/syracusephotographer/diy-projects
I dont want it on the blog like the top post. http://kastylephotography.net/blog
I dont use the excerpt so the feature/thumbnail image will be a repeat of an image already in the post. I can use other images at times but, I wont be able to with every post.
Or another possibility is there a way to extend the excerpt? I just dont want one image showing with a bit of text with a read more. My blog is very picture based so I want more pictures to show in the main blog page. I tested using WordPress read more short code and adjusting the amount of text shown in an excerpt in the theme settings so more pictures would show. neither worked. A way to override it so I can use the WP read more where I want? The featured/thumbnail image issue wont matter if I can do that.
Also what size is the featured image? Im getting distortion because my image is not big enough so I can size them proper. I did a search but didnt come up with sizes, I didnt find it in the documentation either.
