Not serving up different images

    Hello –

    I am a design working with a developer. From what we can tell, your plugin is creating the different sized images but it is only serving up the large image. We tested on a Retina Macbook Pro, a non-retina monitor, and a non-retina iPad. In each instance the file name is the same when we inspect the element.
    My understanding is that the user should be served the right sized image, which will be unique with it’s own filename. Am I correct in this understanding? What may be the reason only one file is loading? No need for a non-retina use to be served a huge file.

    See this page: http://aaronstienstra.com/#http://aaronstienstra.com/?portfolio=large-test

    Thank you for considering this issue.

    Hello,

    Your website (theme?) is using full-size images it seems. So yeah, those aren’t the WordPress resized images. With or without the plugin I bet the pages look exactly the same (and load the same huge images).

    Thanks for the response. I changed the theme as a test and looks like the same thing happens – one large image regardless of device and screen size. Pardon me if I am missing something obvious, but how do I use the plugin to upload a large image and have it served up at different sizes depending on the user’s screen? Thanks again.

    Did you read the tutorial? I mean, this is important to know how WordPress handle the image sizes. If you understand how it works a minimum, it’s easy to debug it and give me way more information. This is the developer’s job to make it work and to explain it to you, did you ask him/her?
