Retina images not quite Retina

Hello Will,

Actually I am not sure what you are talking about ??

What are the media sizes set-up in your system?
What does your retina dashboard looks like?

Did you actually read the tutorial? I feel like you think the plugin is doing something “different” than what it actually does.

Hi Jordy,
Apologies for not being very good at explaining what I mean. I’ve been using the plugin for a while and while I have read the tutorials it’s definitely possible I don’t know what I’m doing ??

The large-feature image for my site has a width of 940, which is the max for my theme.Under media settings it’s set to be 940×640. Retina2x is generating all the retina images, according to

For horizontal featured images I’ve been uploading images that are 1880px wide and that words fine.

For a long time I couldn’t get square images to work, if I doubled the size it just was twice as big. I finally constrained the height of the featured image using CSS to 640px.

If I upload a square image at 1880×1880 my assumption was that it would load the square image at twice the height – 1280×1280. But it’s not, it’s showing up at 940×940.

So clearly I’m not understanding something, just not sure what I’m not understanding.

Thanks for getting back to me, I know you get a lot of clueless pleas for help.

best
will
