add_image_size is not generatin images of correct dimensions

Question

I am trying my hands with WP add_image_size method and this is the entry in my theme's function.php

if ( function_exists( 'add_theme_support' ) ) {
 add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );
 set_post_thumbnail_size( 100, 65); // default Post Thumbnail dimensions   
}

if ( function_exists( 'add_image_size' ) ) { 
 add_image_size( 'home_page_featured', 200, 225, true);
}

I tried with both parameters of crop factor but seems nothing is working for me. I am uploading Dimensions 628x355 and want that beside all OOB image size, home_page_featured should be get created with dimensions 200x225, but WP is generating it as 200x113

i tried with Regenerate Thumbnails plugin but seems like it is not working, not sure where i am doing wrong.

Answer 1

The code bellow should work properly. Also read this post WordPress Featured Images – add_image_size() resizing and cropping demo.

Add this code in the file functions.php:
add_image_size( 'Home Page Featured'', 200, 225, true );

And call it like this in home page the_post_thumbnail('Home Page Featured');
