Image Sizes
SportsPress registers predefined image sizes on plugin activation. These sizes are available throughout all templates, shortcodes, and custom themes or plugins that use SportsPress data.
The sizes are registered in sportspress.php using add_image_size(). Three use aspect-ratio-preserving scaling (false crop parameter — the longest edge is the constraint), and one uses hard cropping for square thumbnails.
Registered Sizes
Size Name | Dimensions | Hard Crop | Use Case |
| 300 × 300 px | No | Player photos in profiles; team logos in full-size contexts |
| 128 × 128 px | No | Team logos in league tables and event blocks |
| 32 × 32 px | No | Small inline icon appearances |
| 300 × 300 px | Yes | Gallery thumbnails requiring a square crop |
The sportspress-fit-* sizes preserve the original aspect ratio: an image that is wider than it is tall will scale so its width equals the size value, with the height proportionally smaller.
Using the Sizes in Templates
Pass the size name as the $size argument to any WordPress image function:
// Display team logo at icon size echo get_the_post_thumbnail( $team_id, 'sportspress-fit-icon' );// Display player photo at medium size echo wp_get_attachment_image( $attachment_id, 'sportspress-fit-medium' );
Using the Sizes in Shortcodes
Some SportsPress shortcodes accept a size parameter that maps directly to these registered size names:
[player-gallery size="sportspress-fit-icon"]
Regenerating Sizes
If images were uploaded before the plugin was activated, WordPress will not have generated the registered size variants. Use the "Regenerate Thumbnails" plugin (or equivalent) to batch-process existing uploads and create the missing size variants.
