FAQ

Resizing does not work, what do I do?

Try changing settings, specifically the jQuery selector field. Your theme might have different mark up.

How do I use shortcode in my theme?

Use [wpavefrsz-resizer] to output resizer wherever you want.

How do I disable resizer depending on page/post it’s displayed on?

Use ‘wpavefrsz_render_flag’ filter. For example, to only disable it on pages, use it like so:

add_filter('wpavefrsz_render_flag', function ($render, $post) { if ($post->post_type === 'page') { return false; } return $render; }, 10, 2);

I found a bug
