Hello, got 2 questions regarding my featured images on https://prperry.nl/
1. On home you can see the seven latest articles in the top slider. I think the overlay is to dark. Is there a way to manipulate the opacity of the black layer?
2. When entering the website, I always need to wait more than a second before all my features images appear. Not only at the top slider, also when you scroll down on the homepage. One of two seconds and then they appear. This also happens on my blog pages. Check for instance https://prperry.nl/in-zijn-element/ – first a large black area above the post title, than the featured image appears after two seconds…
Why is this happening and how can I end this?
THX for your support…
Hello !
1. You can use this code: .td-grid-style-5 .td-module-thumb a:last-child:before{
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
The code must be inserted here: https://www.screencast.com/t/J1Nxw5s5
2. That is because your Images don’t seem to be properly optimised: https://www.screencast.com/t/kroHHrGbf
Thank you !
Thanks Vlad,
1 – looks much better now THX
2 – can you give me an advice how to optimise better? Dont know where to start? The featured images are like 500 kb, shouldt be the biggest problem nowadays…
THANKS
I did some performance checks at https://gtmetrix.com/
I used WP Smush
I used WP Fastest Cache.
Still not woking properly… I own multiple WP-websites and this never happened before…
THX for helping me, hopefully we can find a solution 🙂
For instance I built https://mediahuishelmond.nl/ last year.
with Newspaper-theme!
Never had a problem here 🙂 I built this website the same way.
THX.
Perry
Hello !
You can check the waterfall in GTMetrix in order to see the how long does it take to each element to load: https://www.screencast.com/t/3htierx1F
