    On the home page, the full width slider doesn’t look good on mobile – the buttons cover up the image and it’s not really deep enough, looks very thin.

    Please advise best way of fixing this…

    thanks,

    Hey andrea!

    Please add following code to Quick CSS 

    @media only screen and (max-width: 769px) {
.slideshow_caption {
    width: 85%;
}}
@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) { 
.slideshow_caption a {
display: none; 
}}

    thanks, that doesn’t seem to have done anything though – the captions are still covering up the image.

    Hi!

    Can you please try changing code to following one

    @media only screen and (max-width: 769px) {
.slideshow_caption {
    width: 85% !important;
}}
@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) { 
.slideshow_caption a {
display: none !important; 
}}

    Cheers!

    Something has changed, i think it’s a bit better, but the captions are still covering up the images

    Hey!

    I believe hiding captions on mobile would be the best solution 

    @media only screen and (max-width: 480px) { 
.slideshow_caption {
display: none !important; 
}}

    Please let us know if that solution works for you

    Best regards,

    Thanks Yigit, that works – I can see the images! Is it possible to make the image slider deeper on mobile (i.e. taller) as it looks a bit thin/cramped even without the captions. Is there a way to do that – OR should I make the slider deeper via the page settings and add some white space to the top of all the image jpgs?

    Hey!

    You can refer to this post – http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/hide-menu-itemselements-on-mobile/ and display different sliders on mobile and on desktop

    Cheers!

    Thank you, i don’t want to hide it though. I think a deeper header would be better both for desktop and mobile – I’m currently using featured 1500×430. The featured large 1500×630 was better, but too big. Can I set it somewhere to be 1500×500? I have it on don’t stretch option.

    Hi!

    You can go to Appearance > Editor and open functions.php file and find

    $avia_config['imgSize']['featured'] 		 	= array('width'=>1500, 'height'=>430 );						// images for fullsize pages and fullsize slider
$avia_config['imgSize']['featured_large'] 		= array('width'=>1500, 'height'=>630 );						// images for fullsize pages and fullsize slider

    and change the values as needed and then regenerate thumbnails using this plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

    thank you – will that still work after any theme updates, as I assume you mean the functions.php in Enfold not in the child theme?

    Hi!

    If you are using a child theme, please add following code to Functions.php file of your child theme instead

    add_filter( 'avf_modify_thumb_size', 'enfold_customization_modify_thumb_size', 10, 1 );
function enfold_customization_modify_thumb_size( $size ) {
$size['featured'] = array('width'=>1500, 'height'=>500);
$size['featured_large'] = array('width'=>1500, 'height'=>500);
return $size;
}

    then regenerate thumbnails :)

    Best regards,

    Thanks, i have done that but it doesn’t seem to have changed the home page slider height (I’ve done ctrl-F5 to check as well)

    Hi!

    Have you regenerated thumbnails as well? https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

    Yes I did and it gave 100% message

    All done! 70 image(s) were successfully resized in 344 seconds and there were 0 failures.

    I’ve now tried it twice.

    However, it has not changed the appearance of the slider on the homepage (desktop or mobile).

    Do I need to actually resize all the jpgs as well? Because when I chose the large slider it just added white space above which looked fine (except it was too deep). So I assumed I wouldn’t need to resize the images it would just add space. Thank you.

    Hi!

    Please install the following plugin then go to the Settings > Media panel. Adjust the size, update, save then regenerate the thumbnails: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-image-sizes/
