How do I increase the size of images and video in the lightbox?

    Regardless of the size I choose for the thumbnail or the size of the screen, the lightbox video/photo are only about 400px wide.

    Hi Vanessa,
    Thank you for using MediaPress.

    The width is hardcoded in css and that’s why it has scaled to 400px.

    I have moved away from this scaling and in the upcoming version, MediaPress uses flexbox layout in the lightbox to provide better experience.

    https://github.com/buddydev/mediapress/commit/d9245a4f7809a5459f39f49d60346683265fd721

    To apply this for now, Please replace wp-content/plugin/mediapress/assets/css/mpp-core.css with the contents from this page.

    Please let me know if that works or not?

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Thanks, I’m happy to wait for the new experience if it’s coming out soon.

    I ended up trying it, it works well, except for potrait photos, which are sized slightly larger than the screen (the bottom 10% of the photo is off screen). It depends a bit on horizontal width to get this – a larger horizontal width tends to reproduce the issue more easily.

    Landscape photos don’t have a similar problem.

    Hi Vanessa,
    Thank you.

    I tested again and can see the issue with large portraits. A solution I see is setting a max height on the image, based on the current viewport. I will be implementing a solution for this by tomorrow.

    Thank you

    Was this ever addressed? My portrait images are off the lightbox screen as well…

    Hi Shannon,
    I will post the css in next 24 hours. It needs some css with media query. I believe I did not add it earlier.
