Stopping lazy loading – how come I can′t?

    Hi guys ??

    So, my LCP is high (usually around 4 seconds), and when I open my page, some elements, like the logo, take a long time to appear.

    When inspecting the element (logo), it says loading=lazy.

    I figured I would disable it to see if this would bring my LCP time down.

    However, I have not succeeded. Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

    1) Disabled lazy loading in LiteSpeed Cache

    2) Disabled lazy loading in JetPack

    3) As I’ve read that WordPress has an innate lazy loading built in these days, I’ve tried to disable it by adding this code, first to Code Snippets (which did not work), then to my functions.php file (in the top, if that matters):

    add_filter( 'wp_lazy_loading_enabled', '__return_false' );

    4) Checked to see if I have any other plugins that might add lazy loading but found none.

    Yet, images are still lazy loading, and I have run out of options to try.

    Do any of you have an idea of what could be going on?

    Thanks for reading ??

    Best regards,

    Martin

  • Have you considered it may be your theme? Inspecting your site – it seems that lazy loading is javascript driven so can only really be plugin or theme.

    You can try the default theme without impacting users without impacting users by using the Health Check and Troubleshooting plugin

    Hi Alan,

    Thank you very much for the suggestion ??

    I now tried the Health Check and Troubleshooting plugin, and as it turns out the lazyloading actually came from Elementor. I had no idea it also had a lazy loading function.

    In case this could help some one else, I fixed it by using the Lazy Load Control For Elementor plugin.

    Now, no more lazyloading.

    A note, though. Unfortunately, it did not reduce my high LCP time.

    Thanks again ??

    Best regards,

    Martin
