Sharpening Woocommerce thumbnails

    Hello,

    I want to improve quality of WordPress thumbnails. I’ve tried to solve the issue using several plugins such as “ImageMagick Sharpen Resized Images” and “Regenerate Thumbnails” but with no success.

    If I click on the product and then go back to the catalog page, the thumbnail is nice and sharpen. The others are blurry until I click on them. Something with cache…

    I need all products to be sharpen and I really don’t know how to do it. One possibly interesting addition: If I change number of products per line from 3 to 2, the thumbnails have exactly same quality which makes them even worse looking (considering the size).

    Thank you in advance!
    Tomas

    Hi there,

    Just to check: Are you using any caching plugins? What happens when you disable the caching plugin completely?

    Also, have you tried resizing the thumbnails using the native WooCommerce tools under **WooCommerce > System Status > Tools**?

    Finally, have you considered having those image resized dynamically on the server before rendering in the browser? If you’re keen on that approach, have a look at Jetpack’s optimization module: https://jetpack.com/support/site-accelerator/

    Hello,

    first of all, thank you for your reply!

    Unfortunately, none of these tips worked for me. No changes, no improvements. Really don’t know what to do because the image quality is pretty bad.

    It can be probably something with hosting, otherwise I have no clue what else it could be.

    Hi again,

    It could be that your theme does not declare resolutions fit for Retina display. Maybe add something like https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-retina-2x/ to the mix(?).

    Kind regards,

    Hi,

    thank you, I tried but again not succesfully. Nevertheless, thanks to your answer I found out that the issue is truly based on the theme. I created a new website with another theme and all pictures were well-sharpened. When I switched to the problematic theme (Twenty Sixteen), the pictures became blurry.

    Does anyone know how to solve the issue within the theme? My website is really dependent on the theme and I can not imagine building the whole site from the beginning.

    Thank you in advance!

    You can try and use https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/simple-image-sizes/ to increase the image sizes.

    WordPress also has a filter which you can use to disable automatic (down-)scaling of images: add_filter('big_image_size_threshold', '__return_false');

    Kind regards,

    We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
