Tiled Mosaic images zoomed

That zoom shouldn’t change the look of the galleries. It is added on each device to make sure your galleries use the largest images possible for each screen resolution. For example, on a Retina MacBook or an iPhone 6, the zoom value would be different.

If you find that some of the images are blurry on your site, could you send me a link to one of your galleries so I can take a look? Could you also let me know on which device you’re browsing the site?

Thanks!

Hello thank you for your reply.

I am using firefox browser. I have tested the gallery on my 22″ tv and 19″ monitor, with both the images looks zoomed in. I’ve not yet tested it with any other smaller devices.

Here is a url to see: https://pepenerorestaurant.co.uk/gallery/

Thank you ??

It seems that some of the images in the gallery are made bigger to fit the tiled mosaic gallery. It would be acceptable if they were made smaller but bigger just makes them look out of focus.

thanks

Thanks for the extra details.

Something else seems to affect to overall width of the gallery on your site. Could you check your theme’s functions.php file, and let me know if a $content_width value is defined there? If so, what’s the value currently used for your theme?

Thanks!

Thank you for replying. I am using Virtue theme with boxed layout (single sidebar) The functions file does not contain any relevant info. I’ve looked with firebug and found the width is determind by the size of the device. My monitor resolution is 1440 x 900.

@media (min-width: 768px) {
.container {
width: 750px;
}

@media (min-width: 992px) {
.container {
width: 970px;
}

@media (min-width: 1200px) {
.container {
width: 1170px;
}

I this helps

Thank you

Could you try to add the following to your theme’s functions.php?

if ( ! isset( $content_width ) ) {
    $content_width = 878;
}

Let me know if it helps.

Thank you for your reply and support. I have added the code into the functions.php and it is still showing enlarged images. However it does for a moment when the page is refreshed seems to shrink the size of them a little. But they are still too big and out of focus.

The original resolution of the first image is: 466px × 270px.

However if I view image info in the gallery it says: 586px × 339px (scaled to 565px × 327px).

It appears that your theme, or one of your plugins, is defining a larger $content_width value somewhere.

Could you try to install the following plugin, set a custom content width value, and let me know how it goes?

Thanks!

Thank you. I have installed the plugin and found it will only work if I set the width to no bigger than 700px.

The images are then not enlarged however there is then a big gap between the edge of the page and the side bar on the gallery. Also this plugin only seems to affect the gallery page as all the other pages don’t seem to be as narrow.

I’m using virtue theme with boxed layout.

Thanks

Hello again.

No on further investigation it’s still enlarging them. The last image in the gallery is resized to 696 x 493 (this last image spans across both columns and is enlarged to fit) and it is only supposed to be 466 x 270.

Thank you

I can’t seem to access your site right now, I get a database error.

Is that the theme you use?

Haha talk about bad timing. They should be up in a moment.

Yes that is the theme I’m using.

Thanks

It’s online now ??

Alright.

I installed the theme on my test site, but couldn’t reproduce the issue.

I did notice, however, that the markup used in my theme is different from yours, although we use the same theme and the same page template settings:

• Here is mine: notice the .entry-content container: https://i.wpne.ws/agXL
• Here is yours, without that container: the Tiled Gallery starts right away: https://i.wpne.ws/agpU

Did you make any changes to that theme? Could you also make sure it’s up to date?

If that doesn’t help, could you try to deactivate all other plugins on your site, one at a time, and let me know how it goes?

Thanks!
