Bigger images than 324px please

Hi,
Love the ease!

However, I sell my own pictures, and some are very wide panoramas. You’ve oddly limited the size of product images to only 324 pixels ;-/

I want bigger!

I can easily add a CSS such as:
```
.wc-product-preview__image,
.sevenfoots ul.products li.product img{ width: 524px !important;}
```
But, this obviously nearly doubles the size of the product images in question AND makes the blurry, as I’m using an image that’s only 324 px wide 🙁

Please add some method to increase the size of product images. Or, am I missing something?

Be happy for ever,
Steve

I’m up to date in WordPress, Woocommerce and Storefront. I find that Woocommeerce > Settings > Display has GONE! I Google and find that it’s moved to Customiser > Woocomerce > Product Images. But, it’s not! Apparently, Storefront has set this for me. Because it knows best?

I really want to be able to set product image sizes to vary per category or attributes – at my discretion. Even on the same page. I thought I could use these Gutenberg blocks, one to show portrait pictures at a smaller width, while these panoramas – long landscapes would be very wide. Thus, they would end up the same screen area. You can see my issue on my portfolio here: https://www.witchphotographer.com

There must be some way of specifying which out of the image srcset I want to use, for portraits or for landscapes? I don’t mind calling with CSS, but would have prefered to have that power in a Gutenberg block ;-/

Hi there,

But, it’s not! Apparently, Storefront has set this for me. Because it knows best?

That about sums it up ;). Storefront makes use of: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/image-sizes-theme-developers/#section-1 – this in turn hides the image options.

This here will make the WooCommerce Storefront image sizes editable for you.

lol. Thank you, Con. But, what do I do with it?

For others…
I’ve tried everything, I think. This plugin seemed the best:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-image-sizes/
However, Woocommerce writes over everything and it didn’t work for me nor another.

Ah, my bad it’s a plugin. Put it in a folder, upload it to my plugins folder and activate it.

But, it’s not doing what I want. Indeed, I can now edit images sizes in the Customiser > Woocomerce > Product Images. But, my first clue this wasn’t going to do what I want was that the size I could change was 300, not 324. This size of 300 I believe is from WordPress > Settings > Media, which is 300.

And changing 300 to 500 did nothing.

I want to change the 324 pixels in this picture:
