Get a picture element instead of an image tag for responsive images on your WordPress site.
== Description ==
This plugin introduces a couple of nifty functions to replace `the_post_thumbnail()` & `get_the_post_thumbnail()` in exchange for the responsive `picture` element. Use:
`get_the_post_picture(
$fallback_image_size,
array(
$breakpoint_1=>$image_size_1,
$breakpoint_2=>$image_size_2
)
[, $id, $atts]
);`
For example:
`'single-featured-md',
'(min-width:992px)'=>'single-featured-lg',
'(min-width:1200px)'=>'single-featured'
)
); ?>`
While this says 4.0 for minimum version, I would wager it'll be fine on most older installations.
== Installation ==
1. Install via the WordPress Plugin directory or upload this to your plugins folder.
2. Activate from the Plugins screen on your Dashboard.
== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= What? =
Adds the functions `the_post_picture()` and `get_the_post_picture()`. See the description for an example.
= Why? =
This is really a bigger question than the scope of this plugin, but [see here](http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/better-responsive-images-with-the-picture-element--net-36583).
Oh, you weren't talking about the picture element as a whole. There exists at least one plugin that will out-of-the-box replace all `
` tags with "picture" elements and set breakpoints based on the image sizes. But if you need art direction, you need the HTML5 `` element. This plugin gives you control over A. Which elements are replaced and B. What your breakpoints are.
= Does the order of my sizes array matter? =
Yup. Pass them smallest image to largest.
= Browser Support? =
The plugin includes [PictureFill.js](http://scottjehl.github.io/picturefill/). This should polyfill most browsers. If you have an issue, please report it!
= Can I use my custom image sizes? =
Yessir.
= Can I contribute? =
