Alright. Added 0.2-beta as the development version. Duh, but don’t test on a production enviro.

Ah… that shouldn’t be a problem for PageSpeed. Since it’s the same image file, the browser will cache it. Sprites are for if you have a bunch of different images files. Since this is just a single one, you shouldn’t get penalized.

Troubleshooting one last bug, but almost have 0.2-beta ready. It’d be great if you could beta test it. How should I deliver the files for you?

Leaving the src attr intact means that the original image will start begin downloading when document is loaded, which defeats the purpose of having them lazy load. See https://github.com/ressio/lazy-load-xt#usage for how they recommend doing the markup.

I’m not an expert on PageSpeed or YSlow… can you explain what the potential problem with a 1px transparent gif might be?

I tested it out, and you are correct… an empty src attribute doesn’t validate. I’m going to replace it with a 1×1 pixel transparent gif instead (nice and lightweight)

I appreciate the feedback. In the next version release, I’ll add an empty src attribute to the <img> so that it still validates:

<img data-src="/path/to/image.jpg" src />

The next version will also include the ability to specify classes to ignore lazy load and the ability to ignore post thumbnails.

I’ll work your suggestion into the next release, which ought to be soon.

Thanks! This is just the first version, so it’s very much in Beta. I have a lot of ideas of features that I want to include and am hoping to get a lot of feedback from people who use the plugin.

Your suggestion seems like a good feature to incorporate into the next release. Can you talk to me about what images you would want to have load immediately? You mention thumbnails. Are there others?

I like the idea of including a checkbox on the settings page to lazy load thumbnails. I’ll try and get that baked into the next release.

And…. I forgot to add the “name” attribute to the input. Dumb.

Sorry, wrong place.

I’ve started a conversation with them, but am waiting to hear back. One additional item to mention… I was going through the access logs for our server and kept finding requests like the following:

• /tag/samantha-barks/wp-admin/install.php
• /film/new-poster-for-at-any-price-with-zac-efron/wp-admin/install.php
• /film/divergent-filming-information-announced/wp-admin/install.php

May or may not be related. I’ll post more once I hear from the host company.

I developed this before 3.2 was released. Thanks for the heads up, though!

There isn’t an administration page for the plugin. You simply activate it to protect a site, or deactivate it allow full access to your site.

Ipstenu,

Thanks for your help. I attempted to run the import again. I paid careful attention on the “Assign Authors” page. Nothing on the page mentioned images, only authors. (I took a screenshot infashionchicagocom.ipower.com/authors.png)

I mapped the author, and clicked submit, hoping that there would be another screen that addressed images. However, the import ran and finished with “All Done. Have Fun!” No images came with the import.

I’m using the “Movable Type and TypePad” tool listed under “Tools > Import” on WP3.1.3. Am I missing something here?

Perhaps I’m a complete dummy, but I don’t see any “Import Images” checkbox on the “Import Movable Type or TypePad” screen. I can just import from an mt-import.txt file in the wp-content directory, or upload a file myself. Am I looking at the wrong thing?

That got it… or at least, close enough to where I could figure it out. Thanks!

Alright… here’s the pastebin:

I tried using the information from Example (#2) in The Loop, but nothing changed. It behaves exactly the way it did before.

Help?
