Presswell Art Direction helps simplify how custom image thumbnail sizes are defined, cropped, and generated.
Features
<ul>
<li>Control image cropping with hot-spots</li>
<li>Select custom image sizes in the WordPress editor</li>
<li>Dynamically generate image thumbnails</li>
<li>Delete all cached thumbnails</li>
</ul>
Image Cropping
Presswell Art Direction adds the ability to set a focal point hot-spot for all images in the media library for fine grain cropping control. Simply identify where the subject of the photo is and the plugin will crop all custom image thumbnails to ensure it stays in frame.
Thumbnail Sizes
Presswell Art Direction adds an easy to use interface for defining and editing custom image thumbnail sizes. Custom image sizes will be available for selection when inserting images in the post editor.
Dynamic Images
Presswell Art Direction prevents custom image sizes from being generated automatically. Only standard WordPress thumbnails will be generated when a new image is uploaded. All other image sizes will be dynamically generated when called via code or requested via URL, saving server space when many custom image sizes are defined. Note: URL based image generation requires that <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks" rel="nofollow ugc">pretty permalinks</a> are enabled.

When using a theme with Theme Blvd Framework version 2.2+, this plugin allows you to change your theme’s image sizes.
<h4>Who is this plugin for?</h4>
This plugin is mainly designed for non-developers who want to alter the image sizes for their Theme Blvd theme, but do not have the necessary development knowledge to manually make the changes from their child theme.
<h4>How does this plugin work?</h4>
As in any WordPress theme, we setup the image sizes by using WordPress’s add_image_size function for each crop size. However, before these images are registered, the Theme Blvd framework applies a filter to an array of the sizes to be registered.
This allows for all of the image sizes of the theme to be easily filtered from your child theme or from a plugin… and this would be an example of a plugin that utilizes that. 🙂
<h4>Do I have to use this plugin to change image sizes?</h4>
Nope. In fact, if you understand the basics of PHP and the WordPress filters API, I would suggest that you do not use this plugin and instead, you manually make the changes from your child theme’s functions.php. Realistically, running this plugin requires extra resources on your server that can be avoided by just manually make the change you want from your child theme.
If you’d like to dive into a little development action, and accomplish the gist of what this plugin does, you’d simply do something like this from your child theme:
<pre><code>function my_image_sizes( $sizes ) {
 $sizes['slider-large'] = array(
 'width' => '960', // Your new width
 'height' => '350' // Your new height
 );
 return $sizes;
}
add_filter( 'themeblvd_image_sizes', 'my_image_sizes' );
</code></pre>
