 * Link to video that demonstrates how height changes on slider as I adjust the 
   screen width – [https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&feature=vm&video_id=tfcbPsUvf-Y](https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&feature=vm&video_id=tfcbPsUvf-Y).
 * Basically, it looks fine, but at certain widths, the height increases dramatically
   and puts a lot of white space under the slider. I think the height might be equal
   to the original height of the images I added to the slider. Not sure why this
   is happening.

 * Im having issues with the height and widths as well for the slider. The only 
   one it wants to except is either 600 width or 400 height. Other wise if you try
   and make a smaller width and height, it blows the photos up.

 * Came across the same strange height trouble with responsive sliders.
    Downgrading
   didn´t helped. Makes me wonder if I missed this for some time. Anyway, this quick’n
   dirty way seems to fix the issue:
 * I´ve limited the width of the slider to 1100px, this seems to be the magic number,
   by adding
 *     ```
       .su-slider {
       max-width: 1100px;
       }
       ```

 * Thanks for the helpful replies. I need the max-width to be 1280px for the layout.
   I’m hoping the plugin author will respond to this issue and actually fix the 
   problem.

 * I don’t think the plugin author helps on any questions that I’ve seen and this
   question has been asked many times. If it helps at all, I changed all my sliders
   to the Meta Slider and its flawless and responsive. [](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ml-slider/)
