Featured Image srcset

    Using TwentyFifteen theme, brand new post, with a new image.

    When setting the Featured image, there is no srcset, various image sizes, set by this plugin. There is just a single image size.

    However, embedding the same image in the same post does set a srcset with various sizes dictated by this plugin.

    So, how do I get the Featured image to behave the same way? I thought this plugin handles it automatically.

    Whenever WordPress outputs the image through the media uploader, or whenever a featured image is generated, those sizes will be included in the image tag via the srcset attribute.

    Hi Polyfade,

    TwentyFifteen uses a specific custom crop for header images, which are exactly 825×510 pixels. In order for our plugin to add a srcset attribute, you would need to have other image sizes available at the exact same aspect ratio.

    For example, if you added another image size that was 440×272, through a functions.php file in a child theme, you would see srcset attributes containing both image sizes.

    @joe McGill, thanks. I’m realizing that now looking at the way thumbnail is being declared as twentyfifteen_post_thumbnail() instead of the common the_post_thumbnail(). As you mentioned the thumbnail options are set to crop set_post_thumbnail_size( 825, 510, true ).
