    Hello again,

    I’ve added a product image and some gallery images. On the actual product page, the product images are much larger than the original image and look grainy/fuzzy. Why is this happening and how can I get the images on the product pages to be a consistent size – I want the images on the left to be a bit smaller than the original size so that when you hover over them, the ‘zoom’ works correctly. It would be great if the product image height was 400px or something…?

    Look at this page to see what’s happening:

    Thanks

    Hello,

    It’s because your image have height 600 px. You can upload a new image with another height or try to add this code into custom.css file:

    .attachment-shop_single{
    height:400px;
    }

    Here is a video tutorial how to create custom.css: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qok2zRedRMY&feature=youtu.be.

    Hi Robert,

    Please look again. I think when you looked, the site was in a different mode. Now that it is back to ‘normal’ you’ll see that the product images are much larger than they should be…

    They are currently being re-sized to 555 x 1145 pixels – WAAAY too big!

    Thanks!

    It has something to do with the CSS property: .sxy-zoom-container .inner-thumb – or with that element at least.

    The height and width are set to 100% and so it is filling the entire width of the container.

    When I shut down those properties in the FireFox Inspector, it looks okay…?

    Hello,

    You should upload original images with approximate dimensions 1 425px × 1 900px as now your image is too small.

    Please try it.

    Thank you.

    OK- I get that, but I don’t want the images to be so large on the product pages. They should be much smaller than that (555 x 1455) – how can I get them to be smaller? I want them to be 400 – 500 pixels tall max. Please help me to do that.

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    The images will be scaled to the size that are set in Woocommerce > Settings > Products tab, but your original images should be with approximate dimensions 1 425px × 1 900px.

    Thank you.

    My settings are:

    Catalog Images: 300 x 400

    Single Product Image: 450 x 600

    Product Thumbnails: 150 x 200

    But the images on the single product pages are still much too large. Please look:

    http://rivermusic.com.au/product/lc-98s-model-gtr-h-h-black-mpl-t-wcase/

    I need these images to be the size specified above.

    Please help – thanks.

    Hello,

    Now you need make regenerate your thumbnails with Regenerate Thumbnails plugin. Please download this plugin.
    Also don’t forget to uncheck Hard Crop options.

    I had already installed the ‘Regenerate Thumbnails’ plugin and used it on the images, but it still didn’t work.

    I think it’s about the CSS properties (see entry #38065 above) – the image width is set at 100%, so it’s stretching to the actual width of the container (555px).

    That doesn’t work either.

    I’ve discovered through experimentation that the best thing to do is to make the images perfectly square – 900px X 900px is perfect.

    Hello,

    So, have you resolved the issue using those dimensions?

    Thank you.
