Square product images
2 replies · Started by Justin on July 29, 2022
Hey, I am using bigcommerce as an e-commerce plugin. My images are 3:2 - but they display across the site as square. I have asked bigcommerce support, and they say this is being controlled on the Wordpress / theme side (not through their plugin).
Any idea where the setting may be to control image proportions for commerce products if I am not using woocommerce? Or, if I need to use CSS to restyle?

Hi there,
the Theme doesn't create additional images sizes that would crop or alter your original image in any way. And neither does WordPress.....
If inspect the image on that page i see this:

The width and height attributes are correct in that they match the image being displayed.
If i had to take a guess i would say:
1. The Image Carousel is creating an almost square aperture for the main image ( you can see the inline width style it adds is being caluclated by Javascript ).
2. Your Image Optimizer ( Flying Images CDN ? ) is cropping the image on the fly to suit the size the carousel is displaying.
