I have my WordPress Media settings set like so. Based on these settings no generated large image should exceed the width of 540px.
I embed an image in a post like so. I choose “Large” as a image size, which should have a restricted width of 540px.
The end result is an image of 1024x769px. Why won’t the image adhere to my Media settings?
Try uploading the image again now you’ve set up the media settings, this should fix it.
