Crop Thumbnail Images Custom Code

To crop thumbnail images in WordPress/PHP using custom code, you can use the following steps:

1. Create a new PHP file in your WordPress theme’s functions.php file.
2. Add the following code to your PHP file:

function my_custom_crop_thumbnail($image_id, $width, $height, $crop) {
  // Get the original image.
  $original_image = wp_get_attachment_image_src($image_id, 'full');

  // Create a new image and crop it to the desired dimensions.
  $cropped_image = wp_get_image_editor($original_image[0]);
  $cropped_image->crop($original_image[0], $width, $height, $crop);

  // Save the cropped image.
  $cropped_image->save($original_image[0]);

  // Return the URL of the cropped image.
  return $original_image[0];
}

This function takes four arguments:

• $image_id: The ID of the image to crop.
• $width: The width of the cropped image.
• $height: The height of the cropped image.
• $crop: The crop position. This can be one of the following values: top, bottom, left, right, or center.

3. Once you have added the code to your PHP file, save it and upload it to your WordPress theme.
4. To crop a thumbnail image, you can use the following code:

$image_id = get_post_thumbnail_id($post_id);
$cropped_image_url = my_custom_crop_thumbnail($image_id, 150, 150, 'center');

// Echo the URL of the cropped image.
echo $cropped_image_url;

This code will crop the thumbnail image to a width of 150 pixels and a height of 150 pixels, with the crop position centered.

You can use the my_custom_crop_thumbnail() function to crop thumbnail images anywhere in your WordPress theme. For example, you could use it to crop the thumbnail images in your blog posts, archive pages, or search results pages.
