Hi

For some reason when I insert images in templates, views etc and have Toolset resize the image the image is really low quality and blurry.

Any reason why this is?

With a theme I used to use it had its own generated sizes and I could insert these and they were fine but for some reason Toolset generated image sizes are low quality?

Could you show me an example on your site?
What shortcode(s) are you using to display this example image?
What is the URL of the original image (you should be able to find this in the Media Library)?

Hi Christian,

Of course please see here - hidden link

If you take a look at the images on the "Latest news"" widget on the right hand side bar you will see they are low quality.

The shortcode I am using is:

[wpv-post-featured-image size="custom" width="105" height="70" crop="true"]

Original URLs of images:

Thanks.

Okay I see a bit of blurriness, though some of it seems to be related to the browser resizing the image per your theme's responsive settings (see the max-width of each image in the inspector). There's no setting to adjust the compression of images produced by the custom field engine, but you could try using a larger image size. Your theme should resize the image to fit the available display area.
