How to resize images in DJ-Classifieds?

DJ-Classifieds keeps the original images/pictures when you upload them. If you want to change your website's template or alter the images in adverts, categories or profiles to a better fit, you can always do this following this tutorial.

When you or use on your website uploads the image (or images), it's being saved in the original size. Additionally, the engine of DJ-Classifieds creates the versions of the image with dimensions that are set in options ( Components -> DJ-Classifieds -> Options -> Images tab ). 

Important : "Store original images" option needs to be enabled.

If you later want to change images sizes, you first need to change settings (dimensions) of the images in options (Components -> DJ-Classifieds -> Options -> Images tab) and later navigate to where you want the dimensions of the image to be processed and resized.

Available options

  • Image quality - compression value. The higher compression, the smaller size of the image and worse quality
  • Store original images - need to be set to "Yes" if you want to resize the images later. This feature keeps authentic images for later changes of quality, dimensions and cropping.
