Home Page Version for each Device Category

Home Page Version for each Device Category

I'm trying to ensure that our pages, starting with our Home Page, which has various customer logos and other images, shows best on each device category - desktop, mobile, and tablet. 

I need some guidance on how I can create a version of any page that only displays on the targeted device type so that images display best. 

 

Right now, each type displays differently, and I can't seem to find any settings that work best for all. My only solution is to create a version fo reach type, unless there's a better way?

How do sites handle this?

Re: Home Page Version for each Device Category

Hi,

 

from my experience, enough solution is having two versions of images: the first one for desktop and the second one for mobile.

 

From the technical side you can use <picture> HTML element (but keep in mind that this not works in IE11):

 

<picture>
  <source media="(max-width: 667px)" srcset="img_mobile.jpg">
  <source media="(min-width: 668px)" srcset="img_desktop.jpg">
</picture>

On the other hand, you can use CSS to show/hide each one image on different resolutions/devices.

 

Also from the backend side, you need to take care about provide versions of images for each view (device/resolution). 

 

I hope that this is helpful to you.
