WP Retina 2x WordPress Plugin
Make your website look beautiful and crisp on modern displays by creating and displaying retina images. WP 4.4+ is also supported and enhanced.
This plugin creates the image files required by the High-DPI devices and displays them to your visitors accordingly. Your website will look beautiful and crisp on every device! The retina images will be generated for you automatically - though you can also do it manually - and served to the retina devices.
From version 4.4, WordPress has support for Responsive Images. WP Retina 2x handles this well and nicely adds the retina images in the src-set created by WordPress. The HTML for the images not handled by WP 4.4 will also be handled by the plugin. Moreover, the plugin also has two options specific to WP 4.4+. One is to disable the Responsive Image support, the second one is to disable the additional image size called Medium Large.
The concept of retina for full-size image is a feature that only exists with this plugin and can't be simulate easily without it.
