Header graphics is being cropped…

Hi @bvhprods

Is there a setting to ‘do not crop image’?

Yes, if you look under Advanced Settings you can disable cropping.

Thanks for the quick response!!!

I went to Advanced > Image Crop > and chose Disable and the header graphic is still being cropped top and bottom over 1080 px width on browser https://mississippiabortioninformation.org/

Please advise.

Thanks.

I made the imaegs 1300×335 https://mississippiabortioninformation.org/wp-content/uploads/MAI_header-l300x335.png

The cropping occurs only top and bottom over 1080px browser width.

Hi @bvhprods

That’s a style being applied by your theme. It looks like they even add some html via JavaScript as well. You will have to contact them for useful instructions to stop that from happening. Here’s the style being applied:

.vantage-slide-with-image .content {
    left: 0;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    width: 100%;
}

Thanks for figuring out what the problem is. So, is there no work around rather than contacting the developer? A quick fix?!

What is the proper size for the MetaSlider header graphic?!

What can I add to the Child style.css to stop the cropping?!

You can try overriding their styles in you own stylesheet.

.vantage-slide-with-image .content {
    position: static !important;
}

To be clear, there is no image cropping happening. The container is being sized differently.

What is the proper size for the MetaSlider header graphic?!

Also, this is something the theme is doing. Not MetaSlider. If you need to know the desired graphic size for that theme then you have to ask them. I don’t have much knowledge of how this theme is customizing MetaSlider.

Let me know if you have any more questions

I gave it a try and it did this: https://mississippiabortioninformation.org

It forced the height not to be cropped, but now the left and right is being cropped.

Can we fix that?!

Or are we digging a hole and it is getting deeper?!

Hi @bvhprods

I’m not sure I’ll be of much help beyond that. You’ll have to contact the theme developer and ask them for advice on picking the right image sizes for their theme.

Ok, thanks, just signed up and posted on the Vantage Theme formum. Thanks for identifying the problem and pointing me in the right direction!!!

Hi @bvhprods

Let us know what they end up suggesting in case others encounter the same scenario. And let me know if you have any more questions. I’ll mark this as resolved for now.

This ticket has not resolved!!! I posted a request on the Vantage Theme forum, awaiting a reply. Please leave ticket open until I find a resolution!!! Thank you.

Hi @bvhprods

I can leave it unresolved if you desire, but as I explained this is an issue unrelated to MetaSlider.
