  Hi,

  I am optimizing the speed of my site and have a question about how the Uplift Theme manages Retina vs non-Retina displays.

  I now you are using srcset and create 11/15 files of different resolutions, but my question is as follow :

  Should I upload the retina image (2x the resolution) and let WordPress create the files it needs or should I upload the 1x image ?

  If I upload the 1x image, how do I integrate the 2x image in srcset ?

  Exemple :
  Product catalog photo for Woocommerce with a standard resolution of 700px X 904px
  (the docs tells us it’s 700px X 904px by default with the Uplift Theme)

  Do I uplaod and select an image of 1400px X 1808px and let WordPress create the 700px X 904px (which it creates by default) ?

  Do I upload and select an image of 700px X 904px and tell WordPress to use another one for Retina by some other means ?

  Is it a different workflow for the Swift Slider or the Masonry display ?

  Thanks

  Usually we simply upload a decent 1x size image.

  If you specifically want to use a 2x retina images you can upload a different version and then use this plugin: https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-retina-2x/
