    Hi, the pinterest share button chooses a small thumbnail image instead of the full size featured image. Is there anyway to fix this?

    Thanks for your time.

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Unfortunately there is no such possibility. Sorry.

    Thanks, does anyone else have a solution for this? A workaround plugin maybe?

    Hello, @antcuc and @Olele

    This is not a bug. You may change the image size via customization in files, find and edit etheme_share_shortcode function (royal/framework/shortcodes.php) – http://prntscr.com/i8l9ed > http://prntscr.com/i8l98a (we recommend making changes in the child theme https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes because you’ll lose all modifications after each theme update).

    Hi, thanks for the answer. I’ve changed the image size on the parent theme and it works well, but haven’t been able to make it work in the child theme.

    Hello, @Olele

    To make this work from the child theme, you need to copy the function into functions.php file of child theme, please read more in the article https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themeshttp://prntscr.com/iavsy4

    Thank you! I was adding the code to a copy of shortcodes.php instead of functions.php in the child theme’s folder.
    Now it works perfectly!
    🙂
