Lazy load or another thing to load image when they see it

[Sweetener]

Yup the title, I just want to improve the loading times on mobile phones.
I hope that there is something like that. Thank u

[allvip]

You want it for the image page or for the thumbnails page?
Anyway is possible and I will help you.

Anyway is possible and I will help you.

For the index / thumbnail page

[allvip]

Can I post the code tomorrow.
Now I'm a little busy.
Give me 24h.
Your gallery is http://twwcaps.paperbuildings.net/gallery/ ?
I need to inspect it with firefox to help you better.

[Sweetener]

Nope, it is https://mabelphotos.net/

Thank yoyu so much! I'll be waiting

[allvip]

Now only the images that fit in the screen will load.
As the user scrolls, the next images will load.

STEP 1

open your_theme_name/template.html

and paste down before </body>

Code Select Expand


<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/lazyload@2.0.0-rc.2/lazyload.js"></script>
<script>
lazyload();
</script>


STEP 2

Paste in your_theme_name/theme.php function $template_thumbnail_view and theme_display_thumbnails

ATTENTION If those two functions are already in your theme.php then I need to tell you the edits to make.
Small edits. Don't worry.

It works fine.
I tested only on my pc.

For step 1, you can download Lazy Load from https://github.com/tuupola/lazyload/tree/2.x and and upload in your_theme_name just lazyload.min.js from the zip archive

change

With Firefox inspect the rows that are not showing in the browser window have src gif 1x1px and the ones in view have src the real thumbnail.

Thank you so so much
I've been very busy lately that is why this is such a late response but thank u thank u

[ron4mac]

If I can find some time, I will create a lazy-load plugin so it can work with all themes.

That would be amazing! I'm looking forward to seeing this

Instead of using the code in this topic, use Lazy load plugin by ron4mac.
