Hey there,
I’m finding WordPress fascinating so far, but I’m struggling to get one little detail. I’m sure it’s simple, but I just haven’t seen it explicitly stated anywhere so far. Some clarity would be appreciated.
Example: If I upload a square 4000px image (as an example), it will get resized into small, medium and large (in whatever resolution is set). If I insert that image in a post, it will ask me to select one of those sizes (or full size).
Let’s say I select size “Large”, and that large is 1000px. Does this mean that WP will always serve the image in size large? Regardless of whether it’s viewed on a 4k monitor (where full size would be ideal), or a 600px wide phone (Where Medium would be more than sufficient)? Presupposing WP’s default operation and a simple theme like twenty-seventeen.
I’d really appreciate if someone could clear that up for me, since it would allow me to make better choices regarding resolution.
Regards and thanks in advance.
