Slow loading of images
-
Hi, thank you for the great tool, really like the theme, the functionalities, and options it provides. However, I have my website ready to launch but have been struggling with the loading time of the images. My photos are not small, but I have optimized them a bunch, have the WP REST API Cache plugin installed, Lazy load an image when you scroll to it, and Image Quality (.jpeg) to 70% in the settings. Still, the website takes sometimes more than 20 seconds to load, sometimes the images don't load at all.
I am aware that I have pages with many images and others with no more than 10. But with these considerations and the Lazy load that shouldn't be an issue I believe.
Have you found a way to make this work faster? This is the only reason why I haven't launched my website, to be honest.
I am testing the images in other servers and the same images load super fast, so I am guessing is something with the system instead of the optimization of the images? Thoughts?
I host with MT, I have talked to them and they said it is the template and not on their end.
Here is the link to the temp website.

Perfect!
Before you post:
- When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
- Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
- Disable all Plugins
- Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"
This often solves issues you might run into
When you post:
- Post a link to where the problem is
- Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
- If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
