    Dear Support Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I have some queries regarding the Image Sizes listed under the Salient Image Sizes tab. My primary goal is to ensure my website loads very quickly and has fully optimized images. However, I’m facing some confusion about the following points:

    1. Usage of Image Sizes on the Live Website:
      • Are all the image sizes shown in the Salient Image Sizes tab actively used on the live website?
      • If I turn on all these image sizes, will they automatically reflect on the live site, or do I need to set them up manually?
    2. Default Settings in Salient Core Files:
      • Are these image sizes pre-configured in Salient's core files?
      • If not, could you clarify whether they are intended for manual setup by developers or designers?
    3. Purpose of Each Image Size:
      • I want to understand where each specific image size is used (e.g., in widgets, thumbnails, portfolio sections, etc.). This will help me determine which sizes are essential and can save server space by removing unused ones.

    Below is a list of the image sizes currently visible in my tab: [Please help on each seperatly]

    • portfolio-widget: 100x100
    • portfolio-thumb_small: 400x270
    • portfolio-thumb_large: 900x600
    • regular_small: 350x350
    • regular: 500x500
    • wide_small: 670x335
    • wide: 1000x500
    • tall: 500x1000
    • wide_tall: 1000x1000
    • medium_featured: 800x800
    • large_featured: 1870x770

    Could you please provide detailed information about the usage of each of these sizes on the website? Additionally, any guidance on optimizing these sizes while maintaining functionality would be highly appreciated.

    Looking forward to your response.

    4. Just for testing, I disabled all Image Sizes. But still if we upload a new image, these images sizes are auto generating.

    thumbnail ( 150px x 150px )
    medium ( 300px x 300px )
    medium_large ( 768px x * )
    large ( 1024px x 1024px )
    1536x1536 ( 1536px x 1536px )
    2048x2048 ( 2048px x 2048px )
    portfolio-thumb ( 600px x 403px )
    nectar_small_square ( 140px x 140px )


    Please help me know if these have any specific use in website.

    Hey Hazrath,

    thumbnail, medium, medium_large, large, 1536x1536, 2048x2048 are all core WordPress sizes. https://rudrastyh.com/wordpress/image-sizes.html#default-image-sizes

    The portfolio-thumb and nectar_small_square are from Salient, though. If you wish to remove those, you would need to do so via a child theme modification. You can read more about the image sizes we register and where they are utilized in the docs here: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/modify-image-sizes/

    Kind regards
