    Hi guys, I see that the latest version of Genesis has this feature:
    Feature: Lazy load images in Chrome 76+ (off by default, enabled with genesis-lazy-load-images theme support).

    How can I enable it?
    I added this line to the function file but the images are not lazyloaded:

    add_theme_support( 'genesis-lazy-load-images' );

    Thanks

    I just asked on your previous post what theme you are using and version. Can you provide that here.

    You could have a conflict with the Autoptimize plugin or another plugin. Have you performed a plugin conflict test?

    Hi, Sorry for the late reply. I actually disabled the lazyload option in Autoptimize but the lazyload function is still nor working. I am using Magazine Pro and the latest versions of WordPress and Genesis.

    Never cared much for the lazt load function, do you have any suggestions for alternative speed-optimixing approaches, that does not include the lazy load function?

    Lazyload is actually quite a big deal in terms of speed performance.

    @nfabiox85 I asked in our Genesis group and received the following response:

    Genesis adds the loading attribute via the WordPress wp_get_attachment_image_attributes filter. Images that are output without that filter running will not gain the loading attribute.

    This means that after adding the lazy load code to the theme's functions.php file, the only images that will show the loading="lazy" attribute are featured images. Images that are embedded in single posts and pages will not use lazy loading.

    I hope that helps. They are updating the docs.

    Ok thanks a lot for your explanation Anita. Hopefully in future releases the lazy load function will be implemented in all the images. 🙂
