• Dear community, I have a „scaling“-problem with the header image/meta slider gallery in twenty-seventeen…
    I have already posted this topic in another forum, where it was closed and the admin suggested to place this here…
    I am currently building a website (see link) with a Meta Slider-gallery in the header, I implemented this via (header-image.php):

    <div class="custom-header">
    		<div class="custom-header-media">
    			<?php echo do_shortcode('[metaslider id="105"]'); ?>
    		</div>
    	<?php get_template_part( 'template-parts/header/site', 'branding' ); ?>
    </div>

    The images in the slideshow have a size of 1920x824px and on my 1920px-width-screen, everything looks fine, but, on devices with a smaller width, the images of the slideshow become horizontally „compressed“ – and this also happens, when simpy defining a background-image in twenty-seventeen via „design“>“customizer“>“header media“>“header image“… when lowering the screen-width, the image is being scaled unproportionally… is there any known solution for this???
    Thank you very much!

    This seems only to happen in FF (v42.0), in Opera and Chrome, it seems to work….

  • Hi, it appears that you didn’t add a link to the site in question and I don’t see one linked on your profile. If you can get that link added in here, I can take a look.

    Thanks

    Hi Jarret, thanks for your interest – I forgot the link, here it is: “https://www.jcb-immo.de/&#8221;! It would be great, if you have some idea… best regards, flashpanhunter

    Hi, which OS are you seeing this on? I checked in FF on OSX (version 70.0.1) and the images look the same to me as in Chrome. They don’t appear to be compressed horizontally like you mentioned.

    Are you able to upload a screenshot ( https://snipboard.io ) of the issue you’re seeing?

    Hey Jarrett! First: thanks a lot for your effort!!! I uploaded respective images: https://snipboard.io/nabeRC.jpg
    Thank you very much!

    *ooops, in the upload, the last image represents the firefox-screenshot, it is Firefox (Version 42), NOT Opera (Version 42)!

    Hmmm, is there a reason you are using such an old version of Firefox? Looking at their site here:

    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/42.0/releasenotes/

    That version came out in late 2015. The latest version of Firefox for Mac at least is 70.0. I’m not even sure if they have older versions of Firefox available for download that I could test with.

    Hey! That solved it – I never checked the version number of my ff – in the help-section, it was always mentioned, that I am using the latest version! Thanks a lot, Jarret!!!
