Hey!

As you noted, the problem is not showing up. That’s probably due to the fact that I started using Cloudflare to speed my site up so we’re seeing cached data, meaning that uncommenting the function call will not have an immediate effect.

I’m afraid we’ll have to close this bug report out because there’s no way for you to investigate it without me crippling my site for an extended period of time, which I don’t want to do.

And yes, my gallery images open on a customized image.php file created with the Avia editor. I don’t believe that’s the cause of the problem though, seeing as the full-screen slider has the same problem.

Regardless, please go ahead and close this bug report out for I can work around the problem by not using the calc_dimensions function.

Thanks for trying to help, and for clarifying what the function does.

Hi Ismael,

Thanks for taking a look. Yes, as noted in my previous private response with the login credentials, the call to calc_redimensions is commented out. I can’t have my website “disabled” for any long length of time. Seeing as coordinating a time for me to enable the function call is not feasible, I’ve uploaded my cpanel credentials so you can change the file yourself.

As for the slow image loads, I’m aware of the issue, which is two-fold.

2) WordPress is kind of stupid when it comes to image sizes. It thinks that pulling a smaller-sized image into a larger size frame is OK, and it’s not because that reduces the sharpness of the image. To stop having my thumbnails being softened I’ve had to force WordPress to use the original size image which is usually about 1024×768 and between 200k to 300k. As you noted, this slows my page load times. Image sizing is something I need to look at more, but simply havn’t had time to do yet due to other pressing issues.

21) My hosting server is very slow. That’s why I use Cloudflare and also plan on moving my site to inmotionhosting.com in the future. Cloudflare as been a tremendous help with faster page loads. I’m hoping inmotionhosting will be another significant improvement. The move to inmotion is being delayed until I resolve a few more issues with my site, like this one.

I will look at the optimization plugins you recommended. Thanks for the list.

Hello!

Thanks for the response! Seeing as the function deals with a mega menu container, commenting it out should not have an impact on me.
