Hi Jason,

I found your response here
http://support.themeblvd.com/forums/topic/changing-size-of-sliderwrapper-height/

but it seems that the slider is using the resized image not the original image which is causing the problem for images larger than 350.

On the slider setup box, after inserting the image, I right click and open image in new tab.

points me to the correct image.

But on the home page, when the slider loads and I rightclick>open image in new tab, it goes here
http://demo2.ameisez.com/rushcouture/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/homeslide_500.1-960×350.jpg

Now perhaps the right question is how to make the slider use the original image.

This specific response is your answer:

You need to change the image size of the slider, and re-upload whatever images you’re using for it. Then, you need to adjust the CSS if you’re working with the slider in the Featured area of a custom layout.

I already did that that is why the slider area is already 500px height. but the image neing loaded by the slider is 350px only.

For the purpose of testing this is what I did.

Make this css change
#featured .element-slider .standard-slider-wrapper li.slide { height: 500px; }

1. Create new slider (HOMETEST)
2. Rename my images, reupload them,and added in the newly created slider.
3. Activate the newly created slider in the builder.

I got same result. slider height of 500px with images of 350px height.

You can login to my wp admin to verify it. emailed you the login details

thanks

Ok, so the CSS part of it is the second step. But it seems you’re missing the first step. — How have you changed the size of the registered image sizes?

Are you using this plugin as linked to here? Or filtering yourself? It sounds like you aren’t doing either? That would be the problem.

Ohh.. OK.. that fix it.

Thanks 🙂
