Thank you Takis for that explanation, now that I know that I imagine it would be best to upload largest size images to my portfolio and let Adaptive size down the images as devices dictate.

Hello again Nevma,

Sorry I disappeared for a few days I got busy with some other work. So then are you saying that the high res image needs to be uploaded into the project page as well as the 1100×619 (original image) I think I am confused about how the plugin works when it comes to where to put my content, could you provide some clarity on that.

I originally thought the plugin would pull the high res image from my media library but it seems that is not the case. I could try to setup a a hidden test page so that we could take a look at it there, thank you again for your help.

Hi there,

That is what I am trying to say; the image that is being served is the image that I have on the website a 1100×619 image. I want adaptive images to serve the larger version that is only in the media library of my wordpress. I cannot point you to that image because it is only in my media library. Can I get adaptive images to call the image out of my media library instead of the 1100×619 when it notices at retina device? Thanks for bearing with me here I am trying to be as clear as I can but I don’t understand the plugin as well as I could and that is why I am here.

Yes, that is the problem, when I view the webpage on a high res retina screen I do not want BE_Work_Meijer_mperks_Img_1.jpg to serve, that is too low res for those screens. That is the image I originally mentioned because when I go to the page on my retina 27 inch 5k screen and inspect the element I do not want to see that file at 1100×619 because it is too low-res. When, and only, when I am viewing the site on my 5K retina screen I want to see another file in my media library named BE_Work_Meijer_mPerks_Img_1@2x That is the high res retina version (5120×2880) that I want served to large retina screens, or at least something bigger than 1100×619.

I cannot point you to that image because it is not getting served up (that is the problem) that image is only in my wordpress media library which only admins to my site have access to. I am not using it anywhere on the website because it is too big. The only time I want that image served is to large high res retina screens.

Best Regards,
Danny

Hello again,

Thank you for looking into it. The reason I say that is the image “in question” is because that is not the image that I need served to retina devices. That is my problem exactly, there is a 5120×2880 sitting in my media library that Adaptive does not serve when I view the site on my retina screen, even though I set 5120 as a breakpoint in the plugin settings.

I am not trying to get adaptive to scale images up, what I would like is for it to identify the retina device and select/serve the high-res image from my media library instead of the 1100×619 image (the original asset) I cannot point you to the high-res image because it is not getting served. Is that possible? The person who recommended this plugin told me it was but I’m not sure anymore. Thank you for taking the time to look into this issue.
