Опис
Lazy loading plugin that supports images, iFrames, video and audio elements and uses the lightweight lazysizes script. With manual modification of the markup it is also possible to lazy load background images, scripts, and styles.
Lazy loads (without the need of any manually modifications):
- Images inserted via
img
orpicture
in posts, pages, Custom Post Types, Text Widgets, … - Post thumbnails.
- Inline background images.
- Or all images and other enabled media in the markup (that is not excluded or already has a lazy loading attribute), via the option to process the complete markup.
- iFrames.*
- Video elements.*
- Audio elements.*
* Can be enabled in the plugin options.
The plugin comes with the following options (under Settings › Media › Lazy Loader options):
- Do not lazy load elements with specific CSS classes (you can use the class
skip-lazy
by default). - Add filters that should be processed by Lazy Loader.
- Enable lazy loading for iFrames.
- Include the lazysizes native loading plugin that modifies images and iFrames to use the native lazy loading feature of browsers that already support it.
- Include the lazysizes unveilhooks plugin that adds support for more elements, for example, video and audio elements.*
- Enable lazy loading for the poster frame of video elements.
- Enable lazy loading for audio elements.
- Enable lazy loading for inline background images.
- Display a loading spinner.
- Disable the plugin on specific posts/pages (this shows a checkbox in the edit view of all public post types (except attachments) to disable lazy loading for an entire post).
- Process the complete markup of the site.
- A textarea to modify the default lazysizes config values.
* The unveilhooks extension of lazysizes supports more than video and audio elements, but you need to manually modify the markup to use it for:
- Background images not inserted with inline styles.
- Scripts.
- Styles.
The plugin adds a noscript
element as fallback for disabled JavaScript (can be disabled with the lazy_loader_generate_noscript
filter).
You can disable lazy loading for elements with specific CSS classes by defining them via the plugin settings (Settings › Media › Lazy Loader options). Or use the skip-lazy
class or the data-skip-lazy
attribute. skip-lazy
and data-skip-lazy
also work on wrapper elements to exclude the wrapper and its children from being processed.
Встановлення
- Install plugin.
- Activate it.
- You can find the plugin settings under Settings › Media › Lazy Loader options.
Часті питання
-
Is there a way to manually call the plugin to modify markup of not-supported image functions?
-
Yes. See the following example that would generate lazy-load-ready output for the result of the not-supported
wp_get_attachment_image()
function:global $lazy_loader; if ( isset( $lazy_loader ) && $lazy_loader instanceof FlorianBrinkmann\LazyLoadResponsiveImages\Plugin ) { echo $lazy_loader->filter_markup( wp_get_attachment_image( 1261 ) ); }
To make it happen, you need to pass the markup that contains the image (or images) to
$lazy_loader->filter_markup()
. Theif
statement ensures that the Lazy Loader object is there and that it is an object of the correct class. -
How can I disable/modify the inline styles?
-
Important: If you modify or remove the inline styles, also the style that shows the loading spinner is affected. So if you remove the styles or modify them without adding back the spinner styles, the spinner option will not work. I created a Gist with the spinner styles – just add them to your modification to make it work.
To disable or modify the plugin’s inline styles (except the style that hides the
img.lazyload
elements when JS is disabled, so only thenoscript
version is displayed) you can use thelazy_load_responsive_images_inline_styles
filter. For example, to remove the inline styles, use the following code:add_filter( 'lazy_load_responsive_images_inline_styles', function () { return ''; } );
If you want to modify it, you can do that like in the following code block (remember to include the opening and closing
style
tags for additions/replacements). The code modifies the duration of the fade-in-effect:add_filter( 'lazy_load_responsive_images_inline_styles', function ( $default_styles ) { $default_styles = sprintf( '%s <style>:root { --lazy-loader-animation-duration: 600ms; }</style>', $default_styles ); return $default_styles; } );
The CSS from the example are the default styles that are used by the plugin (without the loading spinner styles). The
display: block
for.lazyload
is important for the aspectratio plugin option. -
How can I adjust the lazy load threshold/other lazysizes settings?
-
There is a textarea in the plugin settings where you can insert custom settings for the lazysizes config.

Журнал змін
8.2.0 – 14.04.2024
Tested with WordPress 6.5.
Added
lazy_loader_generate_noscript
filter to allow disabling ofnoscript
element generation.
Fixed
- Updated
mastermind/html5
dependency to latest version, which fixes a PHP deprecation notice.
8.1.1 – 20.12.2022
Tested with WordPress 6.1.
Fixed
- Disable lazy loading in TranslatePress editor.
8.1.0 – 29.03.2021
Added
- Support for input elements of type
image
.
8.0.0 – 22.03.2021
Removed
- Processing of
wp_get_attachment_image
, introduced in 7.2.0. I just noticed that processing that filter by default may break cases where a wrapper element has theskip-lazy
class to disable lazy loading for contained media elements. Lazy Loader is not aware of this when processingwp_get_attachment_image
, because it cannot check the parent elements. If you want to process that filter with Lazy Loader, you can enter it in the settings field for additional filters.
7.2.3 – 17.03.2021
Fixed
- Stop processing embeds, because the lazysizes script is not loaded in the iframe and so the image in the embed can not be lazy loaded.
7.2.2 – 17.03.2021
Fixed
- Duplicate images in Ultimate Addons for Elementor widget – thanks @kaggdesign.
7.2.1 – 09.03.2021
Fixed
- Missing JS files in SVN repo.
7.2.0 – 08.03.2021
Tested with WordPress 5.7.
Added
- Process
wp_get_attachment_image
filter that was added in WordPress 5.6.
Changed
- Updated lazysizes and its plugins to 5.3.0.
Fixed
- Use same escaped version of SVG placeholder for
src
andsrcset
to fix a HTML validation error.
7.1.0 – 04.11.2020
Changed
- Add timestamp of file modification as version query string to Lazy Loader JS files instead of WordPress version.
Fixed
- Problem with Lazy Loader being active in Oxygen Builder editor.
7.0.0 – 10.08.2020
If you depend on the aspectratio script of lazysizes somehow that came with the plugin, this release has a breaking change: it removes the aspectratio option (and the script) because it uses inline SVGs as placeholders that have the same effect without needing the aspectratio script.
Added
- Disable core lazy load funcionality that comes with WP 5.5.
lazy_loader_attrs_to_strip_from_fallback_elem
filter that allows to provide an array of HTML attributes that should be stripped from the fallback element in thenoscript
element.
Changed
- If
width
andheight
attributes are present, the plugin uses an inline SVG to prevent content reflow – thanks to WP.org user lozula. - Updated lazysizes and its extensions to version 5.2.2.
Fixed
- Problems with inline HTML comments in
script
tags. To fix that. inline script elements are no longer wrapped in HTML comments during markup processing to hide them from the parser. That was necessary forDOMDocument()
but is not needed when usingMasterminds\HTML5()
(what Lazy Loader does).
Removed
- Aspectratio option. The change with the inline SVG makes that obsolete.
6.0.1 – 01.05.2020
Changed
- Added empty default value for the
$content
param ofPlugin\filter_markup()
method to prevent a fatal error that occurs sometimes when Lazy Loader is used with the Content Cards plugin. - Check if there is already a script with the
lazysizes
handle registered and deregister it before enqueuing own version. Fixes issue with Avada theme that includes own version.
6.0.0 – 31.01.2020
This release requires PHP 7
Added
- Option to process the complete markup of a page instead of only parts of it via the filters (might take a little longer because the plugin needs to process more markup and, if your site contains HTML errors, lead to unwanted behavior, because the DOM Parser tries to correct that).
- Option to define additional filters for the plugin to process.
- Ignore patterns for
skip-lazy
class anddata-skip-lazy
attribute. Use them if you want Lazy Loader to ignore an element and its children. Thedisable-lazyload
class anddata-no-lazyload
attribute will keep working for backwards compatibility. Adding the new class and attribute goes back to an initiative by Frank Goossens, developer of Autoptimize, who reached out to several devs of lazy loading plugins or plugins that also have a lazy loading feature to get a standard class and attribute across multiple plugins. - Added donation link to plugin header.
Changed
- Updated required PHP version to 7.0.
- Security improvements via escaping and specifying allowed HTML in setting descriptions. Thanks @igmoweb
- Simplified
Plugin\add_noscript_element()
method. It just clones the source element now, instead of creating a new empty element and adding all attributes to it. - Check markup for
[caption]
shortcode to prevent duplicated images in Elementor. - Class properties are private now.
Fixed
- Error with invalid attribute names in
Plugin\add_noscript_element()
method.

custom-fields
before loading block editor script.
5.0.0 – 28.06.2019
Changed
- Increased priority for the calls of
the_content
andpost_thumbnail_html
filters from500
to10001
to fix issues with the ShortPixel Image Optimizer. So if you use those filters and they need to run after the Lazy Loader, you need to increase the priority, too. This is the change that makes it a major version change.
Fixed
- Audio shortcode stripped from frontend with all following content.
4.1.0 – 31.05.2019
Tested with WordPress 5.2
Added
- Option for using the native loading extension from lazysizes.

class to disable the lazy loader for an element and its children.
Changed

- Added note about limited browser support to loading spinner option.
- Updated placeholder source to a more stable variation (thanks diegocanal for the hint).

Added
- Support for
picture
element.
Fixed

- Run

filter later (priority 500, like for thethe_content
filter call, instead of 10), to fix a problem that appears when used with Responsify WP (thanks jgadbois). - Moved the
add_noscript_element()
method call to the beginning of themodify_*_markup
methods. With that, there is no need to remove thelazyload
class in theadd_noscript_element()
method, because it was not added yet. - Removed unnecessary
$new_iframe->setAttribute( 'src', $src )
call from theadd_noscript_element()
. - Removed unnecessary
$dom->saveHTMLExact()
calls from themodify_*_markup
methods. - Use own

Fixed

to make the aspectratio option work correctly again.

(there was also a new feature added in 3.2.9, but I forgot to increase the minor version number there…)
Added
lazy_load_responsive_images_inline_styles
filter for modifying the inline CSS (for modification, you also need to add the opening and closingstyle
tags). If you use the spinner option and the filter, you need to add the spinner styles, because they are part of the filtered CSS (Gist with the spinner styles used by default).- Option to display a loading spinner and define its color.
Changed
- Use style inside
noscript
element to hide.lazyload
images if no JS instead of adding ajs
class via JS to thehtml
element. - Using
DOMXpath()->query()
to fetch the element nodes. - Looping the nodes once inside
FlorianBrinkmann\LazyLoadResponsiveImages\Plugin()->filter_markup()
and no longer one time in each of the three element-specific methods.
