No bug This image not being resized

I thought you might be interested in seeing a situation where ochRI is not resizing a picture.

This is an image in a slideshowCK slideshow.

Hi Tim,
ochResponsiveImages runs server side and works with <img> elements that are on the page that is being rendered.

This slide show doesn't use <img> elements but rather uses <div> elements with data attributes pointing to the images.
So there are no images on the page.

The images are 'injected' by JavaScript (camera.min.js) on the page that will read the attributes on the slideshow <div> and replace that client-side with the image.
In your example it is not only loading the thumbnail that is displayed, but it is also loading the full image (that will be displayed when clicked on): a full 5MB.

Although I understand how this works, I think this is a bad practice for e.g. SEO as google only sees HTML elements: so Google sees a page without images where there are actually images displayed. It will also have issues for visitors on low bandwidth and for visitors that have disabled javascript (here this trick will not work)

And as a quick follow up: using this slideshow basically means you are 'trapped' in a vendor lock in as there is no plugin etc that will be able to do anything with this slideshow / its images. The power of Joomla (one of them) is the possibility to change / override / extend / etc. This is not possible here

Thanks for the info, Ruud!

BTW, that image in the slide is "redonculously" large because it is one I grabbed off my camera when I was plying with that extension.

It would have been better if the large image was only used on explicit user action (when he clicks the image): like ochGlightbox does: size of the image can be very huge as it will not be used unless the user clicks it.

Speaking of: This conversation triggered me to create a new module that works with ochGlightbox: with the module you can upload / select / reorder (fully based on the Joomla framework) images with title, description and other slide settings.
This will leverage ochGlightbox from automatic and using an image directory to also adding a gallery via a module and insert that anywhere on your site / in your content.

I currently have this is beta. And ochGlightbox being your 'baby' maybe you want to do a special youtube broadcast on this: Watch me test a beta: make it or break it

Just an idea
