  • Wait, what?

    Astonished to find this function now missing from WordPress. It's so necessary to avoid the decapitation syndrome if anything. It should have been improved and made more accessible/intuitive/draggable like Facebook (ha ha). Thank you for providing this plugin.

  • thank you

    A basic functionality that should have remained in the core of WordPress, thanks to the team for this essential plugin

  • Thanks!

    Just found out that this functionality was removed in WP 6.3 and this plugin is a must-have. It helps with creating custom thumbnails from the featured image, that are shown in search engine results (and if there's another way to create them, I have no idea what it is).

  • Thank you for creating this

    I appreciate Wordpress's desire to be efficient and fast, but it can't be at the expense of flexibility for the user. I'm glad this plugin exists because it's very important to me to be able to decide how a thumbnail is cropped. You can't always just leave it to a CSS rule. Please keep maintaining this plugin so we can keep our sites beautiful and functional.

  • Thanks, but FFS...

    "hAvInG cUsToM, nOn-pRoPoRtiOnaL iMaGe sUb-SiZeS iS nOt cOnSiDeReD a GoOd pRaCtiCe" FFS as if loading an extra 150-pixel image is that big of a problem these days, particularly when it's often the ONLY version of the image that's called by the theme on a given page. 🙄 The point of "responsiveness" is usability, so removing this functionality from core is actually a LESS responsive approach in cases where the large image loses all of its legibility/visibility/attractiveness and thus value to the page when it is scaled down - for example headshots of people where there is only room for their cropped-in face on small screens. Anyway thanks for releasing this, works great. Please don't abandon it.
