    Would anyone by chance know how to change the image size of the thumbnail that appears in posts?

    I can only get the thumbnail to link to content by selecting “standard” and “set as featured image”, however, when I do that the thumbnail image appear blurry. I can live with that, I just want to be able to reduce the size of the thumbnail that shows up in posts.

    Thank you in advance!

    The tumbnail image size depends on the native image size that you upload.

    If the thumbnail width is less then 300 pixels it will stretch to this value and image will look slightly distorted.

    I must be missing something, the images I use for ‘featured image’ are at least 900 pixels wide – but yet they still show slightly distorted;

    I really wish I could use ‘gallery’ instead of ‘standard’ to link the thumbnail image to the actual post (when I use gallery it links to the image). Would there be a way to accomplish that?

    Try using the AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild plugin.

    Perfect, Thanks Daniel & Alexander.

    Here is how I fixed the problem; I open functions.php (actually a child) and changed the width of the teaser image – it was set at 332 pixels which is smaller than my content page for posts. I set it to 615 pixels wide. I then rebuilt all thumbnails as suggested – and walla!

    Thank you again.
