Compatibility with Woothumbs

    I have an awesome plugin that I use for image galleries on my woo commerce site called “WooThumbs“. It swaps out image sets to match product variations on product pages (such as color). If you check out that link you’ll see that the first image loads correctly (with a retina version) I am using the “picture fill” method (none of the other methods work at all with WooThumbs). You’ll see that once you select another color the new images load but they aren’t retina.

    Is there some code that the woo thumbs developer should add? Is there something I could add? Please take a look at let me know. Thanks!

    I actually made a statement that might not be true above. I’ve been playing around with stuff and it looks like the retina.js method should work but it’s not. When I look at the “net” console in firebug I see that the @2x assets are being loaded, but they aren’t being put into the image tags on the page (even on the front page where WooThumbs is inactive). Do you have any idea why the image tags aren’t being affected?

    Damn scratch that. retina.js method doesn’t work at all after clearing my caches (had forgot to clear assets on my CDN)…

    Hello,

    About Retina.js, if you have a problem with it, it’s better to check the GitHub for it since I didn’t develop the script, I am just proposing it as an alternative method:
    https://github.com/imulus/retinajs/issues

    Indeed PictureFill wouldn’t work if a script is getting the images dynamically from the servers. For that, the plugin that does this operation has to implement its part to support retina.

    I think this should be implemented by the developer of WooThumbs. We could work on it together. Could bring the developer over here, or maybe there is a way we could talk about it together?

    The basics to add this support is here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-retina-2x/faq/.

    Sure. The developer is a great guy. I’ll try and send him over here. I’ve only contacted him though his ticketing system. I could also pass along your email if you’d like…

    Sure, you can give him apps(at)meow.fr and we will make it work. I love collaboration between plugins 🙂
