How to Change Default Full Size Image for Wordpress
Just thought I’d share something I just figured out:
I am now posting images that are 700 px wide. Sometimes, bigger is better.
However, even if I specify the image to be inserted at full size, Wordpress still shrinks it to 500 px wide.
I was able to fix that by editing wp-includes/media.php on line 34. Just look for where it says 500 and change to whatever you want.
It also seems that it’s coded to first check to see what your content_width setting is, but I don’t know where that is set and right now I’m too tired and lazy to look for it. Specifying your content_width, however, would be the best thing to do so that your images will adjust to fit whatever theme you’re using (I’m assuming that variable is set somewhere in a theme’s files). I will add this to my mental to-do list for later.
