What is the recommended image size for my Square Online Store banner?

The title of this post has been edited from the original: Square Online: Mobile view looks oddly big.

 

When I toggle between Desktop view & Mobile view, the banner images looks big and cropped out or cut off on the mobile. What size banner do we need? Pixel? Help. Thank You.

Hey @Dek and welcome to the Seller Community! The typical image size for the banners is around 2000 pixels by 1000 pixels but can vary depending on the content of the header image itself. 

 

Let me know if those image sizes help at all!

Hey @doncuco!

 

What is your site URL? When you're on the computer, editing your site, are you able to view the mobile version? 

 

 

Let me know

I am trying to add a banner to the pages and while it looks right on desktop it is cut off on the mobile site. When I adjust it to fit the mobile site it cuts off on the desktop site. How can I correct this so that it fits for both mobile and desktop?

Did you ever have any luck fixing this issue?  I'm currently dealing with the same thing.  I tried resizing my banner to the size suggested earlier in the thread and it still gets cut off in the mobile view.

Is there a way to fix your Square main banner to have the height of the banner box scale dynamically?  The answer I'm seeing you throw to everyone is to use a 1000h x 2000w pixel ratio but that only completely shows the banner image in mobile.  If the customer is on a desktop the banner has a fixed height that severely crops the image to maybe a third of its 1000 px height on a standard computer window.

I'm looking for dynamic scaling like images in the "text and image" sections but with the image fully expanding its width to the edges of the screen like the main banner.

Hi @FairTradeShop,

For this question, we recommend contacting our Weebly Team directly. They will be your best resource in getting this inquiry addressed. Also, having a specialist that can look into the specifics of your account will be highly beneficial.

Check out ways on how to get in contact with them by visiting here.

Getting Weebly support is IMPOSSIBLE.  Even with the "Support Specialist" it does NOT recognize words like "Weebly help" "Weebly web builder" "Weebly support"

 

I am converting 4 websites from Yahoo Site Builder and am finding the LACK of support for the Weebly product annoying. I am spending WAY too much time trying to figure out how to get to a live Weebly tech support person.

I finally got hold of a Customer "Success" person who said-- "The picture is going to be like that, and there's no way around this currently. I have submitted a case to have them look at this. "

 

This "company" is a JOKE!  I'm trying to run a business.

Was Weebly always bad? ...or has Square just ruined it?

Hey there, @commonbasix

 

Unfortunately, adding a video to your Online Store banner would be a Feature Request. As of now, only images are supported. 

 

Thank you for reaching out with this feedback, so I can pass it along to our Development Team.

Dear Square Community Support,

 

I am having the same issue as others (banner image resizes and is cut off). I have provided a 2000x1000 Banner image with settings seen in the first screenshot here.

The image is cut off on a maximized browser window (1920x1080 display resolution) as seen in the second screenshot here.

 

By the look of it, this is not working as intended . Perhaps it is a bug. Can someone please confirm that it has been sent to the dev team?

 

Regards,
Peter Kennedy
