The image resizing is not consistent even though parameters used in shortcode - We are creating a car selling site that the general public can upload adverts to so we need to keep the images consistent in size (even though the files uploaded will be all different sizes and proportions based on the individual user)

I've been reading your manual guides and using different shortcode parameters but nothing has worked. The current setting I have in place is
[types field='classic-car-primary-image' title='%%TITLE%%' alt='%%ALT%%' align='center' size=' ' width='1200' height='800' resize='crop' proportional='true'][/types]

You will notice some images are taller than others in the boxes see page URL link here

hidden link

any help appreciated solving this problem

Hi,

I have checked the URL you mentioned above, all of those original images are smaller than the image size your shortcode settings:
width='1200' height='800'

For example, this one:
hidden link
It is 575 * 383

So Types image shortcode will output the original image without crop the images.

In your case, I suggest you specific a smaller image size, and enable "size" + "resize" attributes, like this:

[types field='classic-car-primary-image' title='%%TITLE%%' alt='%%ALT%%' size='custom' width='241' height='160' resize='crop' ][/types]

It works fine in my localhost, see screenshot cars.JPG
