User Contributed Notes

  1. Skip to note 2 content

    wp_lazy_loading_enabled returns true for all tags, which is every time this function is called by default. Hooking into the wp_lazy_loading_enabled filter is the primary way of enabling or disabling this feature, however it does not readily allow this to be enabled or disabled for specific attachments or mime-types.

    add_filter( 'wp_lazy_loading_enabled', '__return_false' );

    1. To change how this feature works for specific attachments, the ‘loading’ attribute can be supplied to the wp_get_attachment_image function, or you can modify or remove the attribute using the wp_get_attachment_image_attributes filter.

    $attr['loading'] = false;
    return wp_get_attachment_image( $attachment_id, $size, $icon, $attr );

    Or

    add_filter( 'wp_get_attachment_image_attributes', function( $attr, $attachment, $size ) {
    	if ( $attachment->post_mime_type === 'image/svg+xml' ) {
    		unset( $attr['loading'] );
    	}
    	return $attr;
    } );

    2. To change how this works for specific avatars, you can either redefine the get_avatar function, supply the ‘loading’ attribute within the ‘extra_attr’ argument, or replace the HTML using the get_avatar filter.

    3. the_content, the_excerpt and widget_text_filters will call the wp_filter_content_tags filter on the content, which will also add the ‘loading’ attribute to image tags. To adjust this, the wp_img_tag_add_loading_attr filter can be used to manage the ‘loading’ attribute on a tag by tag basis.
