Featured Image not responsive

    Hello People,

    I am having a hard time trying to get the Featured Image to be responsive on this page (https://www.brinsleysheridan.com/).

    I am using the ‘Pages’ template and have added the featured image via the right sidebar on the page editing screen, but there are no display controls for the image to be found here for different device sizes.

    Likewise in the Template editor, there are seemingly no display controls to be found here for different device sizes.

    Finally, I have looked at the Featured Image Block style for the overall theme and I still cannot find any way to control the display of the image for different screen sizes.

    I am sure I am missing something obvious and would greatly appreciate some assistance as I have been at this for a while now and just getting frustrated…

    Any and all advice welcome, thanks,

    Carl

  • Hi there,

    Have you solved this issue? It does seem to be responsive for the site you shared.

    Hi Felipe,

    Unfortunately not, I could not find an intuitive way to control this in style blocks or page blocks, so I have resorted to using duplicate Groups with the Visibility-Switch workaround.

    That site (https://www.brinsleysheridan.com/) only had the one Featured Image – my own new site (https://locust.ie/) is a complete mess as a result of this issue though….

    I will explain this in more detail in case it may help others:

    Firstly, I installed the Block Visibility plugin by Nick Diego.

    Then I went to the Page Template for the site and disabled the Featured Image block visibility for any mobile devices.

    I then went to edit the Home Page (not the Template) and added a new Image block at the top, setting it to be visible only on mobile devices.

    This is all I have changed so far and is why you probably see it working OK on Desktop and Phone – but for my own site, I have still to setup yet another block for Tablets, as this is not responsive at the moment either.

    Then I have to go through that entire process for all the other pages on my site as they all have been built with a Featured Image as their main image as well.

    As you can imagine, this is a nightmare and very frustrating as the whole point of the Featured Image used to be its responsiveness.

    I don’t know, maybe I missed something, but this is the only approach I can seem to get to work for me at the moment.

    Thanks for your reply – I would be interested to hear your own thoughts/advice on this.

    Best regards,

    Carl Fox

    Oh, and just to be clear – This Issue has Not Been Resolved.

    Hey @carl-fox – if you were willing to return to the current state with the Featured Image (where it wasn’t responsive) I’d be able to take a look at the actual site to see what might be causing it.

    Hi @jordesign,

    Firstly, thanks for the offer, much appreciated and secondly, apologies for the delayed reply.

    I have setup a fresh build on a subdomain and the featured image is working fine without any adjustements being made – on my other sites I had specified dimensions in the settings panel for the featured image where used (templates or pages) and this seems to be the cause of my issue.

    I will continue to try and fix up the issue so these images can be fully responsive over the next few weeks, but right now I am incredibly busy on other projects.

    As I am pretty sure I can sort this out myself now, you can consider this topic resolved, I will come back and update it with the precise steps when I get there, just for anyone else who may read this.

    Thans again, regards,

    Carl
