Nothing wrong with this plugin

  • I switched from another lazy load plugin as this one allowed me to lazy load background images. It’s a bit of a nuisance having to add CSS to every page specifying the background images, but it works fine.

    Three things would improve this plugin for me:

    – something to make the background images process a little simple,
    – some way of making background video lazy load,
    – and a spinner, or something, to show users that the image is coming.

    Thanks.

    Thanks for your review and improvement suggestions! ??

    I will write them down and see what I can do – at least the spinner should not be a big problem ??

    Thanks again,

    I tried to add a loading spinner, but was not happy with the result (jumping position of the spinner after the dimensions of the image are known), so I did not include it into the 3.2.7 release. However, I created a small Gist that shows the CSS of my try: https://gist.github.com/florianbrinkmann/937495c7b41df3c1600ef7d9c6e95a9e

    You can include it into the ?Additional CSS? field in the Customizer (?Appearance? ? ?Customize?) and then you should see the spinner.

    I will keep your other items in mind and try to improve it in future updates.

    Thanks,
    Florian

    Hi @morphalex,

    just wanted to let you know that the next version of the plugin will contain a spinner option. Because of the lazysizes aspectratio plugin I included as an option in 3.2.9, the issue with the jumping position of the spinner is solved (if you want to give it a try before the final release, you can get a beta version here (the lazy-loading-responsive-images.zip): https://github.com/florianbrinkmann/lazy-loading-responsive-images/releases/tag/v3.3.0-beta.1).

    Best regards,
    Florian
