    When I set the slideshow setting to, for example, “dynamically change the height and stretch images to fit” the slider on the front page appears okay (current setting). However, if I set it to “Fixed height; show white space to the side for narrower images”, the slider almost disappears and all that is visible is the two arrows, for passing from one slide to another, close together with little apparent height. (Screenshot here.)

    Do you have any idea how I could fix this?

    Many thanks,

    Alan

    I am not sure, but it looks like the settings on your page builder might be conflicting with the settings for the slideshow. I think your page builder is assigning a fixed height to the container based on certain parameters. That fixed height is not getting changing.

    Currently the Photonic setting you mentioned is not active on your page… but I see that though the slider has a “dynamic height”, the height doesn’t seem to be changing due to the page builder’s container getting a fixed height.

    Unfortunately, I am not sure if I can help you here, as I am not familiar with your page builder. This type of issue does not occur with standard WordPress blocks that don’t use the page builder.

    Thank you Sayontan. I guess you are right that something is interfering with the slideshow. However, I am not aware that I am using any page builder, so perhaps it is the NEVE theme or something else.

    Hmm… if you wish to use the dynamic height setting, I will need to see that activated on your site. That will help me troubleshoot the problem.

    However, since things are working fine with your current setting, why not leave it as it is? If you want, you could pick a bigger size for the main image to improve the resolution.

    Thank you Sayontan. I’ve activated the fixed height setting, but I don’t want to bother you unnecessarily. It’s only that I have a slider in most articles and I would like to use the other setting there, however it seems that this setting is a global one.

    I managed to find an acceptable compromise by choosing dynamic height and forcing the height of the image in the slideshow on the front page:

    .home .header-bottom .splide__slide img {
    height: 300px; !important;
    }
