Set default thumbnail image width?

By cherdt on Mar 19, 2009 at 8:00 AM 2 Vote 0 Votes

Is it possible to set a default (or maximum) thumbnail image width?

I would like to prepopulate the pixel width with a sensible default for our site layout so that blog users don't have to remember what value to enter there.

    It remembers the last size you put in, so it only needs to be done once, but as far as I am aware, there is no way to force this.

    I was able to edit cgi-bin/mt/tmpl/cms/dialog/asset_options_image.tmpl to force my preferred default value.

    However, this value is static, will affect all blogs on the system, is not easily updated, and will be overwritten with each upgrade.

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
