Images are being output as the full size large file instead of the optimized versions when using any of the tagdiv composer image blocks (image box, image info box, title over image, text with image), and selecting an image size lower than the full size in the attachment display options.
This is resulting in a huge amount of extra page load.
We are also using MaxCDN and Short Pixel. Have tried it with and without it and get the same results.
Any ideas?
Hi WalnutHillDesign, indeed for the moment, all elements with an image will display that image in full size if there is no option to adjust/select the size, also some of elements have set the image as background. I added on our list to add some options on images elements to can choose the image size.
Thank you for your understanding!
Ok, thanks for the response. That’s very unfortunate as we were about to launch a large site that heavily uses these elements throughout and discovered this while doing some optimization tests. We are going to have to go through the entire site redo all the images. I’d consider this a pretty significant issue/bug with the tagdiv composer. At least make users aware of this somehow.
This would be a much needed improvement. Either recognize and use the size image select from the wordpress image selector (thumbnail, medium, large, full, etc), or allow to select from one of tagdiv theme image sizes enabled.
Please put this on the priority improvement list. Once the site is handed over to the users they aren’t expected to have to precrop resize and compress every image before uploading and it’s going to be impossible to keep the site optimized.
Thank you. Great theme, but there have been some significant and expensive battles with it along the way.
Hi achmadsya, for example if you are using the Inline single image from tagDiv Composer this will take the image size that you select from media -> https://i.imgur.com/PBd9HjL.png -> https://i.imgur.com/Dtu1urC.png also this element is use as img not as background.
I hope this will help!
