There is a bug in the latest version of Lazy Load by WP Rocket.

Following some big changes to my website, I cleared my cach in my Safari and Chrome browsers, on my iPhone.

When I went to load my website in both browsers, super fast load, but no images, at all!

I'm not sure if this affected desktop browsers, but it may do. I fixed the problem and left it at that.

Uncheck the box "Images" in your Lazy Load plugin, as shown below, and images will be downloaded and displayed as normal. I hope this gets fixed soon.

The latest version of Lazy Load was only two days ago.

I saw this being recommended by Kyle in our SAC. With our sites here already super fast (even before the recommendation of this plugin), is it really necessary to install this plugin?

No, it is not necessary, especially if you have no images/videos above the fold (the initial visible area of your mobile device).

Okay, I got it. Thanks.

Thank you for sharing. Very useful information

Thanks for sharing Paul!

Thanks, Paul for the heads up. I actually updated the plugin this morning.

If you clear your cache your browser will fail to load your images :( This is bad news for new visitors to your site who don’t have any of your images cached! I’m running a campaign unknowing this was happening until I checked this morning.

I’m glad I checked before I went to work!

I can imagine the damage it can do. Good you checked

Thanks Paul

Seems to be ok on my iphone, just went to settings and cleared history (which I guess is the only way to clear cache?) and all images showing and loading ok.

My only concern is it ok on everyone elses phone or is it different iphones? I guess it shoudn't matter if you are using safari as a browser and I dont have Chrome to check

Do you have the latest version? I think this has been released twice in the past week, the last time two days ago.

It may have been fixed today already?

I’m at work so I can’t follow this up :)

Thanks for the heads up!

What do we need this for? I don’t understand. Cheers AJ

If you are not using the lazy load plugin it doesn't apply

Thank you for the fix!
Had sme problem

To you
🥰

No problems on my desktop but haven't had chance to try on anything else yet. Will see what happens. Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the tip. I've just loaded this as part of the SAC challenge along with a bunch of other people I'm sure so good to know.
