Disable Responsive Images Complete

Light as feather and fixed our problem of WordPress "helping" us by serving an unoptimised, resized version of a PNG image that was 4x the size of the original. You'd think they'd just not add it if was larger.

Ace.

We had a client site that kept claiming their images were blurry. I was unable to duplicate it, but I figured it was due to the responsive images being output. I activated the plugin and could immediately spot the culprit. I figured there was a plugin with a reputable author that had a solution for this, so thank you so much for developing it.

Works Perfect

In short, this plugin modifies “the_content()” and the post thumbnail function by re-rendering the images with use of the SRCSET attribute. Other plugins do this for templated images, but not in the content region itself. This plugin will automatically work with any previously uploaded images as well.

Post Script Responsive Images

SRCSET responsive images on wordpress for content images.
