Optimum Image Sizes

  • Tony started the conversation

    I wanted to know if you have a chart or list available for the optimum sizes for the various image sizes used in the theme such as full screen slides, portfolio items, blog images, featured images, etc.

    Also, am I missing something or is there not a search function for the published public tickets to help me make sure I am not asking a question twice?

    Thanks.

    There is no specific answer to your question other than the images have to be optimized for web.

    this is an article from google which lays out several techniques

    https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/optimizing-content-efficiency/image-optimization?hl=en

    about image quality and properties in general, that depends on their role in the layout.

    A fullscreen image will have to be sharper than a team member image, as an example.

    there is a search function you can use although I admit it can be improved. In general we encourage our users to submit public tickets (to share the information and troubleshooting tips, unless there are sensitive information such as wp admin credentials, in which case a private ticket is recommended)

    thanks

    Thank you.

    Thanks for the quick reply. I understand about optimizing the images it is the auto-scaling I am having some difficulty wth. For example, in using the Full-Width Parallax slider, I have tried using a variety of image sizes but they always seem to get \"zoomed\" in (scaled down) so I cannot seem to get the full width of the image to show even at higher resolutions.

    So for example, on my desktop computer running at 1920 x 1080 I have a jpegs sized at 1920 x 450, 1500 x 450 and 1280 x 450. The slider crops and auto scales each to display at the same size. I hope that makes sense.

    Is there a way for me to control this?

    try modifying the height of the full width parallax slider to accommodate the aspect ratio of your image

    the current height is:

    ul.fullwidth-slider, ul.fullwidth-slider .caption-inside {

    height: 700px;

    }


    add the style to theme options Styling Options -> Custom CSS


    thanks

    Thank you.
