How to prevent Grav from resizing images?

Hello,

I’m having troubles with Grav as it resizes images at 1280px width at upload, and a client asked me if I can overwrite this rule. I tried to comment the following lines in the config/plugins/admin.yaml but it didn’t help :

`pagemedia:`

# resize_width: 1280
# resize_height: 1280
# resize_quality: 0.85

I also found some variables that may have an impact but cannot find where they’re used, in /plugins/problems/scss/_variables.scss :
// Sizes
[…]
$control-width-xs: 180px !default;
$control-width-sm: 320px !default;
$control-width-md: 640px !default;
$control-width-lg: 960px !default;
$control-width-xl: 1280px !default;
// Responsive breakpoints
$size-xs: 480px !default;
$size-sm: 600px !default;
$size-md: 840px !default;
$size-lg: 960px !default;
$size-xl: 1280px !default;
$size-2x: 1440px !default;

Is there any way to keep the original image size ?

By the way, I’m using Grav v1.7.48 and Admin v1.10.48.

Thanks a lot for your answers 🙏

@mji, Admin's default media settings are:

YAML

pagemedia:
  resize_width: 0
  resize_height: 0
  res_min_width: 0
  res_min_height: 0
  res_max_width: 0
  res_max_height: 0
  resize_quality: 0.8

And according Admin's Extra tab:

The following settings apply to images uploaded through the page media. Resize Width / Height will automatically resize down and proportionally an image if exceeds the limits set in the inputs. Resolution min and max values define the size ranges for uploaded images. Set the fields to 0 to prevent any manipulation.

My tests confirm that images are not manipulated using the default '0' settings.

Having said that...
Grav uses so called Environmental Configuration, meaning Grav saves configs per domain being used. This means there can be configs in the following folders:

user/plugins/\<plugin>/
user/config/plugins/
user/env/domain.com/config/plugins
user/env/otherdomain.com/config/plugins
user/domain.com/config/plugins (old location but might still be around)
user/otherdomain.com/config/plugins (old location but might still be around)

Grav will first look in user/plugins/\<plugin> location, then user/config/plugins/ location and lastly in the most applicable other domain location. Settings found in the first location, will be overridden by settings in the second location, which will inturn be overridden by settings in the third location.

Do you perhaps have admin.yaml files in multiple locations? If you uncomment the settings in the domain location, Admin will fallback to the settings in the default (user/config) location.

Hey @pamtbaau,
Thanks a lot for your answer! You’were right I had to overwrite an other file to make it work.
Now it’s all fine. Thanks again.
