Easy slider issue

Hi Victoria,

Yeah, I’ve made an assumption that if I’m setting the slideshow image size to one of the defaults – currently Featured (1500x 430) – and I create an image using those dimensions, it will fit perfectly (the screen size is larger than 1500) and scale down proportionally on smaller devices. It’s the seemingly random cropping that I’m struggling with.

I’ve included admin access in the private content below.

Many thanks, Andrea

Hi there,

I’m following up on an Easy slider issue. Victoria asked me to provide temporary admin access to our website – which we did. But I didn’t hear back. I can see a conversation between Antonio Geradi and John Torvik, so I’m writing again in case our post somehow got lost in the mix.

To recap, I have set the slideshow image size as: Featured (1500×430). Therefore, I created an image sized 1500px width x 430px height. However, when the slideshow plays:
1. Neither image displays at 1500×430
2. Within the slideshow, the height of the image that I created is different to the height of the demo image in the slideshow. I.e. the depth of the slideshow changes. Shouldn’t all the images in the slideshow be sized 1500×430 pixels?

Many thanks, Andrea

Hi Victoria,

See for example, this page: http://176.32.230.26/albahighlandcottages.co.uk/ptarmigan-cottage/

I have included WP login details in the Private Context box.

To recap, I set the slideshow image size as: Featured (1500×430). I then created an image sized 1500px width x 430px height. I left one of the Enfold demo images in the slideshow. So, the slideshow has 2 images: one created by myself and an Enfold demo image.

The two images display with a different height. Neither image displays at 1500px x 430px. And the Enfold demo image is cropped top and bottom.

Many thanks, Andrea

Thanks Victoria,

I’d just like to know what dimensions (width x height) to create Easy Slider slideshow images at :)

Now I have a width – 1310px – and I know that the Easy Slider setting ‘Slideshow Image Size’ doesn’t necessarily display images at the size that you select from the options available.

So, I am creating images at 1310px wide and 47 px height. And, I have set the ‘Slideshow Image Size’ to ‘No Scaling’. The images don’t display at 1310px (even when the browser window is full width), but the proportions are Ok.

Many thanks, Andrea!
