Free Plugin! Adaptive Images Plugin for Joomla 2.5x 3.x

Free Plugin! Adaptive Images Plugin for Joomla 2.5x 3.x

Free your Joomla website from using desktop-sized images for smartphones and tablets!

The Adaptive Images plugin for Joomla generates images scaled to your device's screen size. This is particularly useful for mobile devices and tablets, where rendering full-sized images is a waste of bandwidth that also delays page load times. To use the plugin, simply install and enable it - that's it! There's a few more optional settings that you may play with, such as image sharpening, image resolutions, image quality, and retina display support.

Compatibilty: joomla-3.0 joomla-2.5

DOWNLOAD THE PLUGIN FOR FREE!

Adaptive Image Plugin Requirements: 

Apache2 (Sorry IIS users)
PHP 5.x
GD lib 

Additionally, you must have URL Re-writing turned ON in your Joomla's global configuration. 

One method of testing to make sure the plugin is working is to check the newly created "ai-cache" folder in your website's document root. There will be folders named after the pre-determined resolution sizes which will contain the generated images.

OUR YELP REVIEWS

  • Virgo Web Design recently completed my website MeetPeopleChicago.com. Jerry was easy to work with, was attentive to my questions and was on top of things from start to finish. In addition he was very knowledgable and up to date on the latest technologies. I am very pleased with the final product and I will surely use him again for future enhancements. Thank you Jerry for the great work you have done!

  • As a marketing communications person who knew my company needed an up-to-date website built in Joomla, I was very happy we found [Virgo Web Design]. I understood things from a content perspective, but when it came to back-end design and architecture, my hands were tied. [Virgo Web Design] was so knowledgeable and easy to work with, and was always available to answer questions, make tweaks, walk me through front-end editing tasks...you name it. [Virgo Web Design]'s accessibility and can-do attitude made such a difference to our entire team, and I hope I always thanked [them] enough for helping me through the client-side part of the web redesign process.

  • "[Virgo Web Design] did an amazing job on my non-profit's website, ghhaven.org. [They] put our site together quickly and with all of the elements we requested - plus, [they] had a lot of great recommendations for things that we hadn't even considered for the site. [They were] very helpful throughout the process of getting our site launched and I found [them] to be quick in responding to all of my questions/requests as well. [They] even helped us get our business emails set up!

    I would definitely recommend Virgo Web Design as a go-to for all of your web design/development needs. I will definitely be using [them] again in the near future!"

  • [Virgo Web Design] has developed and designed multiple websites for me over the years. [Their] team are exceptionally skilled technicians. Their communication is easy to understand, and they are very proficient - even when near-end deadlines are demanding. Hiring Jerry Virgo and his team is one of the best decisions I have made for my company.

  • I've used Yahoo sitebuilder for several years and my e-commerce website was due for an overhaul. I asked around & received several recommendations from friends & other small businesses.

    Many of the other referrals came from Web design firms & had significantly higher overheads/billing rates...We had a tight timeline & [they were] very diligent at following up to avoid production delays at time when I was extremely busy. [They] did a nice all around job improving my SEO optimization, creating a polished final product, and documenting the back end with an easy to use manual.

    After the site when live, [they] stood by & helped me troubleshoot unanticipated events & helped me create work arounds.
