No Edit Template Styles After Update to Joomla 5.2.4

If you have already upgraded to Joomla 2.5.4 we strongly urge you not to edit the style of your template because there is a bug in the Checkbox field. If you edit it many parts of your website will disappear. We are waiting for answers from Joomla on this matter.

SOMBRA - UBlog image size

Hi, when using UBlog page display all the thumbnails use the full resolution of the article image, so we load too much data when displaying a Ublog with 3 or 4 columns, each thumbnail is 1200px (size of my article images) and only displayed at 350px.
This is not good for Google ranking...
Example :  www.360images.fr/visites-virtuelles/index.html
Would be great if we could set an thumbnail size for Ublog display, just like in UT Articles Portfolio.
Thanks

Hi, thanks for the fast reply,
was looking at the code (ublog_item4.php) and yes it use intro image.
unfortunately all my intro images are the same as the full text images, and all 1200px.
searched for a plugin to resize all my intro images (more than 200 articles) but haven't found anything good.
I'm testing since yesterday the img responsive plugin ( responsive-images.dgrammatiko.dev/documentation/layouts/ ) but it use window width to set the size, and not the container width.
Maybe I could add the code directly into ublog_item4.php to set the size I want ?

The Sombra script that generates the portfolios could be implemented in the Layout you mention or a copy could be made to avoid rewriting in updates. But it is not that easy because the portfolio script is made to create 3 image sizes and generate masonry, although you can use the part that makes the cuts for your case.

But since this is something only for you, it is a customization and has additional costs.
