Full-size images instead of thumbnails – intentional?

Hi,

I noticed FluentCart loads product images in full size (e.g. 1500px+) even when they’re rendered much smaller (~300px). No srcset or WordPress image sizes seem to be used.

I’m using an FSE theme with the FluentCart blocks.

Is this intentional?
And are there plans to support WP thumbnails / responsive images?

This impacts performance, especially on product grids.

Indeed, some improvements can be made here in FC core. In the meantime a tool like Smush may help with automatically optimizing the images.

F. C. Thanks for the advise, I think I’m gonna use Tiny PNG to compress my images before uploading then.

Sander W. That would work too :)

Do it matter anymore with webp being used?

Yes, regardless of image file type you don't want to serve oversized images. You may also want to further strip unnecessary metadata from the image to reduce filesizes even more.
