Hello,

I want to use the images for retina and even if I create and upload the images named as @2x at the end of the name, and also activate the retina function on the theme option as your help document explains, this doesn’t work.

I also read some other post on this forum but I even if do all this, I testes in 2 different retina screens and the browsers don’t load the retina images but the other ones.

Do you know why does this happens?

thanks

Albert

Hi,

please send us link to page where you have retina images and let us know which does not work exactly so we can have a look on it.

As we can see, it does not work because you disabled retina feature under Theme options > Addons & Plugins > Addons section.

Thanks for your answer,

So I changed it, and now its on Off.

This is how the panel looks after changing the retina addon switcher:

But I think its still not working. Do you know why?

Ok, we did checked your site once again and found where the problem is. Recent WordPress version creates smaller images sizes automatically what you can see on http://pasteboard.co/26ZVsze6C.png and that's why our retina images stopped working. We need to cancel this WP function somehow and we will try to do this with next theme update.

Thanks for understanding!

wow thats a pity. But I understand.

Would you recommend me using the 2x images instead of the normal ones, just to give a better quality on retina displays or that will be too big for normal screens? (so, just doubling the size of all images)

This website is my graphic design portfolio and I have many users with retina displays, also I want to show nice quality images.

What would you do, if you where in my position? (and you want to understand my position)


have a nice day!

We do not have any other suggestion to make it possible now but the update with this fix would be ready be fore the end of this week.
