Google page speed says that i need to enable lazyload in mobile theme. Desktop is okay.
I would think TD would support it in both, but i see the same alert in pagespeed. Pagespeed may just look for lazyload on scroll not on load
Hi,
Unfortunately mobile theme do not have the lazyload option, only the mobile version ( responsive theme ) of Newspaper theme, but the mobile theme is faster!
Thank you for your understanding!
Did you guys sorted this out?
According to the latest pagespeed metric rules, lazyloading is a mandatory feature for mobile and everyone who uses mobile theme is affected negatively.
@rockchucksummit – I browsed your website and it seems that you solved this, or isnt this the mobile theme?
Thats for sure. But any solutions around for mobile version guys?
@Themesic
I have tried putting in other lazy load like A3 plugin, but nothing works, tagdiv mobile code seems to be not lazy load ready/friendly. Google’s new algo update is also working adversely for newspaper theme, not SEO friendly since march 2019. maybe next update from them fixes these two issues.
Any other experiences so far? Or any temporary fix until an update which will cover it is out.
Reverting to the normal theme in order to have lazy loading enabled is not actually an option since its completely outside the scope of the speed purpose to discard advantages of the mobile theme just for the lazy loading functions.
Can you talk more about the SEO impact mentioned here?
@Themisic yes totally agree. Tagdiv always give a simple ans that please diable mobile theme if you want a function to work, which is not the solution. If there is something faster make it/fix it so that it becomes better and the users are not penalised.
Everyone has to work according to Google, that is why one installs a theme so that it will be future ready. But they try to do their best, even if a bit slow.
Have not found a solution to lazy load in mobile theme till now.
@pulsatemedia lot of issues, with the new Google algo update, which TagDiv theme is not ready for, one is this lazy load. Next WebP, luckily that solves with an additonal plugin. Then there is speed issue which this theme is at the low end of. Also resource issue. The list we have encountered is quite big. Am sure, in the next update they will cover all these.
Hi,
Unfortunately, for the moment in order to have the lazyload on mobile you need to use the responsive version or to find a plugin for lazyload that is compatible with mobile theme plugin.
There are some new features for mobile theme in coming updates, I think that this can be one of them.
Thank you for your understanding!
