# responsive grid shortcode?

 * Hello.
    I am so glad to have found your plugin. It elegantly solves a problem
   I’ve been working on for days without success.
 * I now have my grid working like I want it, save for the fact that it does not
   appear to be responsive. I was expecting the thumbnails to resize down as the
   browser window shrinks, like the native WP gallery thumbnails do in my theme (
   which is responsive).
 * Is there something I can add to my shortcode to make the grid (and the position
   of the captions relative to the thumbnails) responsive?
 * Here is one of my current shortcode examples:
 * [thumbnailgrid cat=’136′ posts_per_page=’999′ aligngrid=’center’ order=’ASC’ 
   wraptext=’TRUE’ captionheight=’50px’ width=’250px’ height=’167px’ settings=”autoresize:
   fit”]
 * I was hoping the ‘autoresize:fit’ would do it since this works for embedded videos
   on my site, but it does not appear to have any effect. (If I remove the height
   and width parameters the thumbnails shrink down to 150×100 even though in Settings-
   > Media I have them set larger. Not sure why.)
 * thanks

 * Hello,
 * autoresize:fit is a video specific setting, I believe.
 * The plugin is not responsive. You can make the grid responsive by editing the
   style sheet or by using a custom css editor. I’ll look into a way of automating
   this, and create an example. The next release should make this much easier. In
   general, I believe that it is up to designers to control responsiveness! 🙂
 * When you upload images to wordpress, they get uploaded in a few different formats,
   the default format is “thumbnail”. Check out this support thread for more info:

 * And, the following is excerpted from the wordpress codex instructions:
    [http://codex.wordpress.org/Inserting_Images_into_Posts_and_Pages](http://codex.wordpress.org/Inserting_Images_into_Posts_and_Pages)
 * > The Size settings determine the size of the image you are adding to your site.
   > By default WordPress creates a range of four image size for you to choose from:
   > Thumbnail: Displays a small thumbnail-sized version of your image on the page/
   > post. Note, by default the Thumbnail size is a square, so some cropping of 
   > your original image may occur.
   >  Medium: Displays a medium-sized version of 
   > your image on the page/post. This is a good size to use with Left/Right alignments,
   > as it leaves sufficient space for legible text to either side. Large: Displays
   > a large-sized version of your image on the page/post. Note: WordPress will 
   > determine the width of the content column of your theme, and display the largest
   > possible image for that space. Full Size: Displays a full-sized version of 
   > your image on the page/post. Note: WordPress will determine the width of the
   > content column of your theme, and display the largest possible image for that
   > space. If your original image is larger than this column width, the full size
   > of the image may not be displayed.

 * As a developer, I think that how to implement responsiveness is up to the designer.
   I did put together a pretty simple example of how to make the grid thumbnails
   resize responsively.

 * Hi there, I’m interested in this too, but it looks like your article is no longer
   there?
 * Do you have a working link?
 * Many thanks!
