Lazy Load only below the fold

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi,

The toggle for ‘USE LOADING ANIMATION IMAGE’ in the theme panel is site wide. Is there an option to set it so that only images below the fold are lazy loaded?

With the current all-encompassing setting, the main grid appears grey for a second or two before lazy loading kicks in, which isn’t ideal.

Found a few topics from a few years back requesting this feature, just wondering if it had been actioned?

Thanks!

Hi Anamaria,

The available options don’t fully solve the problem. It would be preferable to have an option to disable lazy load above the fold, or failing that, the ability to exclude certain blocks from lazy load, such as big grids.

Here are some other similar requests:

If this could be added to the list of feature suggestions I’m sure many of us would appreciate it.

Has TagDiv considered this important because many people need it and it would be crucial for speed tests? Any idea whether this has been pushed for development or not?

+1 to this being added to the development list. It’s now a common feature in many themes, and as stated by petar777 above, vital for page speed.
