Mouseover images on project thumbnails not visible on mobile

[CBFotos]

Hi everyone,
I have recently finished designing my website at chiarabellamoli.com and for the first few days it was fine.
I have now noticed that on mobile the mouseover images on the project thumbanails on the homepage do not work. The work well on Chrome on desktop.
I use SiteGround Optimizer and I am not sure if the minimizing CSS or Javascript files plays a role in that. If I don't do it the mouseover works (at lest for now) but then how can I optimize the website for speed? Should I use another optimizer?
If anyone can give me a hint I would be very grateful!

Bests,

Chiara

Dear Chiara

@CBFotos

Hope you are having a wonderful day 🌝
If you tested without 'SiteGround Optimizer' and the mouseover worked as it should then we can confirm that the plugin is the issue.

In the documentation is a segment "Speeding up your Website" that may help:

Hi Richard,
Thank you for your answer.
I deactivated the plug in yesterday and the thumbnails initially worked, but today they do not work anymore.
Do you have some other suggestion about what the problem could be?
Cheers,

Chiara

This problem makes my website basically useless on mobile!!
Thanks,

Dear Chiara

I am unsure of the Behaviour, when testing in an Incognito window do you still have the same problem? All third-party plugins deactivated.

There is no true "Mouseover" state on mobile because a mobile does not have a mouse. Did you check the correct settings in > Customize > Project Thumbnails > Project Thumbnail Mouseover? :

Talk soon & best wishes ⭐️

Hi Robert,
thank you for your answer.
The effect I want to achieve in

settings in > Customize > Project Thumbnails > Project Thumbnail Mouseover is the third "Show mouseover state on touch or tap, tap again to enter project".
What it does instead (even in incognito window and with all third-party plug-ins deleted) is that nothing happens on the first tap, on the second tap it enters the project. But since nothing happens on the first tap, people would just assume that these thumbnails are not clickable.
It is very weird because I contacted my web host yesterday and they flushed the cache, everything worked properly for one day and then today the same issue came back.
If you could look into it I would be very grateful because, as I wrote, this issue makes the website almost useless on mobile...

Thanks,
Chiara
