asked on

why is my slideshow so small on this wordpress site?

http://www.pamstevensonjewellery.com/wp/  - I'm using woo-commerce on a Divi theme.

I've got a full-width module with a full-width slider, but it's very small. Not sure what I can do here. Any help much appreciated.

Thanks so much. I realized I had an option of making the PAGE full width, which is what worked. But it changed the CSS, and that's the answer. Appreciate your help.

I'm sorry that I found the solution about the same time you did.
Glad to help, I know the woes of working with WordPress CSS all too well. At least you hadn't minified it! (Although that might be wise too) :)
I guess this is resolved... I dont see any issue here...
Oh- the other thing that I found out is that the slider module is a bit counter-intuitive. You upload the slide as a background image, not as a slide image.
It would be best if you could rephrase this and post it as a new question so that it's easier to keep track of the discussion, also, please give details of any plugins you're using and try to be more precise about what you mean (counter-intuitive is a little too subjective to be able to help you with I suspect)

If you want to shoot me a message once you've done that I can certain help take a look for you.
No help needed. the issue is solved, points are given. I am only saying that when using the slider, you need to upload your slide as a background image, not as a slide. https://divibooster.com/setting-up-the-divi-full-width-slider/

"Perhaps the main thing we are likely to want to do is actually add an image to our slider. But there is a common point of confusion here. When trying to add a full width image to the slider, myself and others have fallen into the trap of uploading an image using the “Slide Image” setting, only to find you end up with a small image that takes up about a 3rd of the screen (500px or so wide), rather than a glorious full-width image. Here’s an important point:
To add a full width slide image to the Divi full width slider module, set the “Background Image”, NOT the “Slide Image”."
