we have been trying to add new images to our slider but it seems to want to make them 16:9 when it wasn’t doing that before even if we set the slide manually to 4:3. also is there any way to change the default to 4:3?
thanks!
April 4, 2014 at 1:12 am #247273Hi ubernaut!
Easy slider allows you to use the original width / height of the image so as long as your images retain those ratios 4:3 on the original image you should be able to keep that one. Or there is plenty of options to set up Slideshow Image Size.

DavidApril 4, 2014 at 2:37 am #247295yeah I’m saying that not working for our new images the thing keeps cropping them. i have tried a number of sizes.

Can you post the links and show examples so we can take a look?
Best regards,
YigitApril 9, 2014 at 5:59 pm #249352hi here are some screenshots to hopefully illuminate things it does seem like maybe the cropping is happening in the admin level as you can see the image is also cropped in the media library but also as you can see the full image is in there is just not recognizing the size so I’m just not sure where the problem is coming from. thanks for your help!

Can we see the actual site and pages with the slideshow live? That way we can inspect the code and source to see whats going on.

DevinApril 12, 2014 at 3:42 am #250421yup right here thanks!

Thank you for the link.
The aspect ratio option is for video slides only. It won’t affect how the image thumbnail turns out. You can choose the thumbnail size for the easy slider on “Slideshow Image Size” option. For example, please use the “Magazine (710×375)” thumbnail size which I think is the best thumbnail size for your slider. Edit functions.php, find this code on line 100:
$avia_config['imgSize']['magazine'] = array('width'=>710, 'height'=>375 ); // images for magazines
Replace it with:
$avia_config['imgSize']['magazine'] = array('width'=>710, 'height'=>375, 'crop'=>false ); // images for magazines
This will prevent the theme from cropping the edges of the image thumbnails. Make sure that you uploaded the images with sizes close to that ratio. Regenerate the thumbnails using this plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/
Cheers!
IsmaelApril 14, 2014 at 6:17 pm #251238well the site owner actually likes to to have images with mixed orientations and wants the entire image to display in any case. will this work if the images have mixed orientations? it seemed to be working fine before a recent upgrade without modification.
April 15, 2014 at 6:48 am #251444Hi!
Thank you for the info.
Yes, it will work with images with mixed orientations but you might find some images that are stretched or unproportioned. Please try it then we’ll check the slider again.
Cheers!
IsmaelApril 17, 2014 at 7:20 pm #252849i think the problem was that we hadn’t noticed the thumbnail size setting when we switch to original size it now works the way we expected sorry for he false alarm and thanks for your help regardless!
