Full Size Image Show in header position

Hi,
I am setting up my first Website using a Gavick template, Start Up in this case for a Restaurant. Great piece of work, clean design and fast loading.

But now i am having a hard time creating a full width slide show using image show. The wrapping container only allows me to set up pictures with a 50% dimension (actual size is 2000x500, but the slides only have 1000x250px)

Although i have set the picture size in module->interface to the proper size of 2000x500px, IS reduces it to 50%.

Where can turn a knob to show the actual size?

Thanks for your help & have a nice Weekend,
Sebastian.

PS: Site is running locally, so i cannot post a link to it now.

Please check if you don't have set max-width of your website to 1000px in template settings. Probably you have and IS don't create images widther than max-width.

Thanks for your kind reply, indeed, it was set to 1000px. Setting the width to eg 2000px, IS shows up in full width. Is there any chance to keep the overall template width to 1000 while setting the IS to full size?

Thanks for helping me with this issue.

Have a nice day.

Sebastian.

Please try add this code to override.css

Code: Select all

.gkIsWrapper-gk_startup .gkIsImage {
width: 2000px;
}


and remember to enable override.css option in template settings.
but when you set it IS won't be responsive.

Hi Konrad,
thank you very much for the fast reply. Since i am using the bikestore IS, i changed the (activated) override.css accordingly to:

.gkIsWrapper-gk_bikestore.gkIsImage {
width: 2000px;
}

But this did not do the trick, the image is still 1000px in width.

Any other solution possible?

Kind regards, Sebastian.

Please try

Code: Select all

.gkIsWrapper-gk_startup .gkIsImage img {
max-width: 2000px !important;
}


and just in case can you give me link to your website ?

Hi Konrad,
no, i am working on the website locally, since my client has not registerd the domain. i will bring it up to our server, so you can have a closer look. The last suggestion sounded promising, but did not bring the desired result either.

I will come back on you when the site is online, thanks so far.

Regards, Sebastian.

Hi Konrad,
the website is online now, so if you find some time, it would be great to have a look at it:

Hi Konrad,
may i come back on this issue? Do you have an idea on how to achieve a full size slider on top of the homepage, in best case keeping responsiveness? Thanks for any help on this, really appreciate it.

Kind regards, Sebastian.

Hi,
unfortunetly no. You need to decide if you want to responsive or slides width diemnsions you want.

Okay, thanks for that. I talked to my customer and he would leave the responsive feature for now, i get to figure this out later.

So i have do set IS as full width slider on the homepage, while leaving the content, modules and so on at standard width of 1000px. How is this to achieve?

All other parts of working with your fine templates is pure fun, so once we find a solution for the max IS, i will the most happy client of yours

Regards, Sebastian

Unfortunetly you will have to increase template width to 2000px or reduce IS image width to 1000px.

Okay, thanks for getting this cleared. Anyway, client decided to keep responsive feature alive, so i spiced up the slider`s background a little bit et voila, he likes it. I am especially proud to achieved a facebook alike menubar, staying on top of the page, no matter in which direction users are scrolling.
Great, it is pure fun to work with your guys` templates.

Keep up that great work.
