Bill_w Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Hi, As the topic title says, I am trying to optimise my site somewhat. I have learned that adding size attributes to images will enhance the search engine ratings and I would like to know how to do this please if it's possible that is? Thanks Bill networkreview.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 We see that you are using Foundation, which is a 'responsive' skin. That is to say, the content zones and images scale up or down to fit the changing width of the browser window (viewport). Even so, experiments show that the image will still scale if there are CSS rules that apply (such as height:auto and max-width:100%). There will be a bit of work involved: editing numerous templates adding to the product dataset actual image dimensions The dimensions could be problematic because CubeCart makes a derivative of a source image to match the space allocated for it in the template. That derivative is renamed by adding the size to the filename -- according to named sizes found in the skin's config.xml file. That size value can be obtained in several ways, but... The size value is indicative of the largest side: height or width. I see some of your images are wide and short, others tall and narrow. Getting the not-longest-side value will also need to be coded into the product's dataset. So, short answer: yes, it's possible. Long answer: a lot of work will need to be done.

And really not worth any effort especially when using responsive skins - far, far more areas you can focus on to optimise the site and help with SERPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
