Hello, I am testing out your new demo (Coffee blog) cofee blog
;
The problem is with the “big grid full 1”.
I noticed that when I test my environment and your original demo, with Pingdom or Gt metrix, result is the same.
Big grid full 1 generates new image in the same size as original, but with different name.
The problem is that my original image is optimized before upload, and it’s size is 200kb, full hd resolution, and the big grid full 1 instead of using the original image, it generates another image from original in the same full hd resolution which size is 700kb.
Please check what I have found on your demo:
Pingdom test – this link shows that the grid loads new generated image which is the same size as original, it just gives it different name.

The images are identical. The problem is, in my case, that my original image is optimized in size, and this grid makes another one, and in some weird way the size is almost 3 times bigger.
What can I do to have big grid full 1 use original image? There is no sense of generating by itself the same image bigger in size for each new post which gets to be in that grid.
Thank you
Hello matijakurusic,
Please notice that our theme using the thumbnails and that’s why it creates more size of images. So, if you want to reduce them, you should turn off the unused blocks from here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/lhulD32mR You should load only the final version of your images which are optimized and the theme will not make another one for the same image which uses the same thumbnail, sorry!
Thanks for your understanding!
Wrong.
You did not understood what is happening. Please check your demo. I even sent you screenshots.
“Big grid full 1” is not using thumbnails. It loads neither the thumbnail nor original image.
What it does is this: It takes original image, generates a copy of it, and changes its name.
For example:
I write a post, upload an image 1545px x 1313px as a featured image which I previously optimized using tiny png(https://tinypng.com/) to reduce the size to 200kb.
SO the original image is this: mainimage.jpb (200kb)
When the post is loaded in “Big grid full 1”, it loads the featured image but with different name, and in my case, increased to 700kb.
So, the loaded image is mainimage-1545×1313.jpb (700kb)
I have sent you all the evidence. That is a bug, please fix it. If you don’t understand, then please check carefully everything I said in this one and previous post.
Thanks
jpg. not jpb ofcourse
