multiple problems after latest updates
-
Hello MWPA,
First of all sorry about this happening, it must be very annoying, especially if your client becomes unhappy!
I cannot see which images are not loading, for me the images load fine.
However, in the console, I see:
So it seems that the site switched from http to https and some images still reference the old http, so they may not get loaded
can you enable this plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/in general, i think its not a good idea to have your client update the site.
i think its best if you do an important client website to disable updates and only update the site if you really need an update.
I do see that the lightbox doesnt work yea, i will investigate why.
-
Hm it seems that the lightbox did not show cause some images couldn't be loaded and the lightbox waits for some images to have loaded so it doesnt show up empty.
Can you please update the lightbox addon now and try again? -
Hi Armin,
See here a screen recording of the issue. Note that this only happens in Firefox:
In Safari, everything displays correctly.
-
I think I found the cause. When I disable the lazy load option, all images display correctly in Firefox.
As mentioned earlier, everything works correctly in Safari, even with lazy loading enabled.
So this does not seem to be an SSL or mixed-content issue. The issue appears to be related to the lazy-loading behavior in Firefox.
Could you please check whether the theme/lightbox lazy-load implementation needs a Firefox compatibility fix?
-
hey so i cant replicate this on firefox.
can you try maybe in a private / inkognito window in firefox? -
i see. thats so weird cause when i use firefox i dont see this issue happening at all, i also couldnt find anything in the code about this.
what operating system are you using?
do you think it would be ok for you to simply disable lazyloading? -
Hmm, strange. It’s happening on both my computer and my client’s computer.
I’m using macOS Tahoe 26.5 with Firefox 152.0.5.
I’m not sure disabling lazy loading entirely would be the best solution, since the website contains a large number of high-resolution images. Performance is important for this site, so removing lazy loading could have a noticeable impact on loading times and data usage.
-
so I actually have the same version of Mac OS and use Firefox too, and I can't replicate this at all.
Yeah, you can update Lay Theme.
When images on pages don't load, do you see anything in the developer console of your browser, like in the network tab or in the JavaScript console? Any errors there?
-
you may have some caching enabled on your web host or some other caching plugins or something. Maybe you can disable those.

What I’ve just noticed is that, on pages where the images do not appear initially, refreshing the page makes them display correctly.
In fact, the images seem to be loaded, but Firefox does not render or display them.
The same issue also occurs on newly created pages. For example, my client created a new page today, and the first two rows of images still did not appear on the first visit.
