Lazy load issues with Lite Speed Cache




Wordpress LScache Plugin: Lazy load issues with Lite Speed Cache

Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02
Hi, I am facing two issues with lazy loading on Litespeed Cache. 1. I have enabled Lazy load images in LS. The images in my blogpost are not lazy loaded if I check in my HTML and on Pagespeed Insights. But the images in the widgets are lazy loaded. How can I make the images in the blogpost lazy loading as well? 2. I am facing this issue in Pagespeed Insights Above-the-fold images that are lazily loaded render later in the page lifecycle, which can delay the largest contentful paint So I excluded the logo (which gave this issue) in the Lazy Load Image Excludes section. However, in the HTML and Pagespeed insights both still saying the logo is lazy loaded. How can I stop the logo Lazy loading? 1. I have enabled Lazy load images in LS. The images in my blogpost are not lazy loaded if I check in my HTML and on Pagespeed Insights. But the images in the widgets are lazy loaded. How can I make the images in the blogpost lazy loading as well? Are these images defined as background-image? If yes, background images are unsupported. Lazy load function expects HTML tag. Background images are included with CSS. If not, you should provide us with more information about these images. Maybe a link to your page? 2. I am facing this issue in Pagespeed Insights Above-the-fold images that are lazily loaded render later in the page lifecycle, which can delay the largest contentful paint https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/ts-media/#excluding-images Hi, 1) isnt this a lazyload effect ? 2) from what I can see , the logo is not lazyloaded by LSCWP you can see the below image is lazyloaded , but the logo file is not Best regards, 1. How come in the HTML, I dont see the loading= lazy on the images from the posts? But the images from widgets has loading= lazy 2. As you can see in Pagespeed Insights and HTML the logo is lazy loaded right? See these links for screenshots: i.is.cc/210XQJGA.png i.is.cc/21102n43.png Hi, the loading=lazy is not added by LSCWP but wordpress itself all image lazyloaded by LSCWP will show as data-lazyloaded=1 as above screenshot Thanks. But on Pagespeed Insights it said the logo is Lazy loaded (see screenshot) https://imgur.com/a/AbssrOe yes , the loading=lazy is not added by LSCWP but wordpress itself Is there a way to exclude this in WP? https://www.wppagebuilders.com/disable-lazy-load-in-wordpress-5-5/ you can check this thanks a lot! I have the same issue (or at least similar): I want to deactivate the lazy loading for above the fold images. I activated lazy loading via ListSpeed Cache (which I was told automatically disables the WordPress lazy loading). I am excluding the images above the fold manually as well to make sure they are not lazy loaded. Yet, there is still one image that shows as loaded=lazy It is above the fold, excluded, yet still shows as lazy loaded, and from what I understand that woud be by WP and not by LSC. How is this even possible?
