How To Stop The Divi Portfolio Images from Cropping
The Divi Portfolio Module and the Divi Filterable Portfolio Module crop the featured image by default. This is fine sometimes, but if you want to show off your projects in their original shape, for example, a square, you need to modify Divi with some PHP code. This tutorial will show you how to remove the crop from the Divi Portfolio Module and the Divi Filterable Portfolio Module.
Where To Paste The PHP Code
1. Divi Assistant
If you are using our Divi Assistant plugin, simply paste the code in the PHP tab in the custom code window in the Divi Visual Builder.
2. Child Theme
If you are using a child theme, paste this code into the functions.php file. If you don't have a child theme, you can generate a child theme directly on your site or download our free child theme.
3. Code Snippet Plugins
Otherwise, install a dedicated code snippet plugin, create a new snippet, and paste this code into the PHP code editor.
If you need help understanding where to paste the code, please check out our complete guide about where to add custom PHP code snippets in Divi.

How To Stop The Divi Blog Feed Images from Cropping
Last but not least, we all know the Divi Blog Module crops the featured image by default. Sometimes this is not very noticeable if your images are a similar shape, but there are times this can be very annoying. You want to have vertical or square images as your featured image in the Divi blog feed. This tutorial will show you how to remove the crop from the Divi blog module.
Out of the box, Divi creates an additional image size for the blog featured image, which is smaller than the one shown on blog posts. Our method here will simply remove that smaller size and replace it with the original size, which will also give it the same aspect ratio as the one you upload.

Hi Nelsen, Really appreciate this. Is it possible to just turn off the height cropping only, but leave the width? When I try just using doing this with the height code I get a blog module that is 9999px in length!
