Srcset string always returns full set of sizes about wp-tevko-responsive-images HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey Tim,

Glad the plugin is helping you simplify your workflow. The behavior that you're seeing is exactly what is expected, but it's not at all clear in the documentation. The second (i.e. size) parameter passed to the function—in your case 'medium'—is used to determine the aspect ratio of the image, which is compared with all available sizes available in the meta attachment field of the associated image so the browser can choose whichever image size is most appropriate.

If you know the actual layout size of the image in your theme, you should also add an additional sizes property to your image tag which lets the browser know how wide the image is at each breakpoint in your theme. If you're running the latest master branch of this plugin from the GitHub repo, you can take advantage of a new function, tevkori_get_sizes_string() to output a default size attribute for the $id and $size that you pass to the function.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, that really clears things up! Using lazysizes in conjunction with wp-tevko-responsive-images/Picturefill seems to solve the 'sizes' issue much more efficiently, removing the need for an explicit declaration of a maximum reasonable size.

I would say the docs could definitely be better for this plugin, at least for folks like me who couldn't read PHP to save their lives. :-)

Totally agree. Sorry for the confusion.
