      The responsive slider on my site behaves and a strange way. When in responsive mode the images do not cover the entire slide area.
      The site is: http://wbd.byows.info/
      This image shows the problem : https://www.dropbox.com/s/7boloqxvbc1wwm9/slider-issue.png

      What am I doing wrong ?

        The reason that’s happening is because your images are all different sizes. Notice on the demo – http://demo.appfinite.net/legacy/ this doesn’t happen because they are all the same width and height. So I would upload images that are all the same size and then everything should show up properly. The slider is designed to only use one specific width and height, and when you have images that don’t show up consistently with the exact height there will be extra space left over.

        You may also want to download and run a plugin called Regenerate Thumbnails so it will go through and adjust all of your images to the size you have configured in your settings. Do this everytime you adjust your width in the settings.

          Thank you so much for the prompt answer ! I am impressed.
          What should be the image size. Is it 1140×400 ?

            The width should be 1140px but the “height” really just depends on whatever size looks best for all of your images.

            You could try 400px height to start off with, and then run the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin to see if it will adjust all of the images to be the same size…..it usually does as long as their close in size.

            Let me know if that helps.
