How to Change the Thumbnail in Blog Masonry

Introduction

BuddyBoss does not include a built-in option to adjust the size or display of thumbnails in the Blog Masonry layout. However, you can customize the appearance of the first post thumbnail by adding a small CSS snippet through Theme Options. This guide shows you how to update the Blog Masonry Thumbnail Size without affecting other blog layouts.

Custom Workaround

  1. In your WordPress admin, go to BuddyBoss > Theme Options.
  2. Under Custom Codes, toggle Enable CSS to On.
  3. Paste the following CSS:
.post-grid.bb-masonry .has-post-thumbnail.first .entry-img img {

  min-height: auto !important;

  width: 100% !important;

}
  1. Click Save Changes.

Note: Any custom code is considered “custom work.” Please review our Support Policy for more details.

Troubleshooting and FAQs

Q: The thumbnail didn’t update—what should I check?

A:

  • Clear your site cache, caching plugin, or CDN cache.
  • Make sure the CSS was pasted exactly as shown, without missing brackets or semicolons.
  • Confirm that Enable CSS was turned on before saving.

Q: Can I adjust the width or height differently?

A: Yes. You can change the width or min-height values to suit your layout:

width: 80% !important;

min-height: 200px !important;

Q: Will this affect other blog layouts?

A: No. This CSS specifically targets the first post thumbnail in the Blog Masonry layout.

Q: Who can I contact for further assistance?

A: Submit a support ticket through your BuddyBoss account dashboard for personalized help.
