    Hi,

    I’m interested in reducing my slider height 300 px but I can’t figure out the correct image width in proportion.

    I initially had images that were 1170×500 but when reduced to 702×300 they get cut off. Can you let me know what the correct sizes would be for 300px images?

    Thanks!

    I understand your logic.

    Did you try leaving width at 1170 and adjusting the height using Customise>Content>Front Page-Slider Options-Set slider’s height in pixels=300?

    Hello,

    I haven’t made any adjustments to the width as I’m unsure how – is there a way to do this or check if there are any adjustments?

    Right now, the custom height is set to 300 px. I tried testing the slider with a variety of image sizes (listed below) but I haven’t been able to find the optimal size that works in the slider.

    1170×300
    1170×500
    702×300
    702×280
    702×220
    702×225

    So far, the on that seems to cut off the least is 702×225, but I’m just trying to understand what exactly is the optimal size so I can design accordingly.

    Thanks!

    Currently I just have one photo up there as an example. The size is 702×300 and the slider is set to 300 px.

    THanks!

    Sorry can’t help. This themes CSS is a mess. Needs to be cleaned up a little bit.

    Like I said, just a suggestion, don’t take it to hard if there are any theme authors here.

    Did you try Global>Image settings and UNCHECK Dynamic slider images centering on any devices?

    Hello,

    That doesn’t seem to effect the size, just the responsiveness setting. I’m guessing the closest size is 702×225 but if there’s an “ideal size” I can figure out that would be great!
