Hi,

is there a way to disable lazy loading for a single image? We would like to disable lazy loading for the post featured image.

Thanks

Hello,

Our theme has an option which can help you, is called “IMAGE LOADING ANIMATION ” https://www.screencast.com/t/yEAXK82aD -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/loading-image-effects/ , you can find in Theme Panel -> Template settings.

Hope this helps you!

Thank you!

Hi, we have already enabled the lazy loading feature, we would like to exclude the featured post image and load it without the loading effect. Is that possible?

Hello!

Unfortunately, you can only enable/disable that effect and not set a condition when to load or not.

Thank you for understanding!

Got it. As a suggestion for an update: it would be useful if one could exclude one or more images from lazy loading by adding a specific class for instance.

Hello,

I would like to express interest for this too since it seems important for SEO:

1. Optimize Your Largest Contentful Paint Element
– Exclude it from lazy load.

Thank you

Hi gcamara, fantalab and crodexter
For the moment the lazy loading option from our theme is apply only generally, we make a request to add some individual options to can disable it on some elements and we hope it will be implemented. Unfortunately until then the only way to do this is to use a cache plugin that have options to exclude some images from lazy load, I think that this option it is the WP Rocket and maybe in autoptimize.
Thank you for your understanding!

Thank you for the answer and taking this into implementation.
I’ve learned this can be done via Litespeed plugin if Litespeed cache is used for Lazyloading.
https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/pageopt/

It can be implemented also in other plugins.

For now I stopped to use Newspaper theme for Lazyload.
I can confirm that Largest Contentful Paint is now much better.

Hello,

You can disable the lazy load from the theme https://i.imgur.com/6FajMki.png if you have used the option from another plugin.

Thank you!
