Product image sizes

The Georgia Theme has some fancy image frames, which make product photos you upload look a lot nicer in your store than if a photo was just plonked on the page.

The trade-off for this is that you will need to either change your store setup, so it re-sizes or crops your images to landscape, or you will need to re-size your product images before you upload them to your store.

Read on to find out more about each method.

Using the "more tag"... or how to make the "Read on" button appear on your main blog page

To break up your blog page so that visitors don’t have to scroll as much, you may want to use the “more” tag. It’s used quite a lot in the WordPress world, so we thought that we should start supporting it!

Most new Spiffy Stores themes include support for this tag. It looks like this….

<!—more—>

To use it, just add the text above wherever you want to break your blog article, and your blog’s main page should split your article at that point, and display the “Read on” button.

And that’s it!

Right aligned small image

Spiffy Stores uses CSS classes to control how images are displayed in your blog. Small right aligned images use the class “right” to get them to display on the left side of the text you’ve entered.

The first part of this post shows you how to insert a small right-aligned image using the the light-box function. The second part of this post shows you how to just insert a right-aligned image normally.

To insert a small right-aligned image into a page or blog, use the “insert image” function in your toolbox, and then alter the tag so that it looks like the one in the sample code below.

All Spiffy Stores themes also have the ability to use the light-box function, so that images can be clicked on to view a larger “zoomed” image.

The image to the right has been inserting using the light-box function. When you hover over the image, you will see that your cursor becomes a hand. Click on the image, and you’ll see the light-box in action.
