The lazy Loading in word press can be achieved by adding following java script code
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() { var images = document.querySelectorAll('img[data-src]'); var imageObserver = new IntersectionObserver(function(entries, observer) { entries.forEach(function(entry) { if (entry.isIntersecting) { var image = entry.target; image.src = image.dataset.src; image.onload = function() { image.classList.remove('lazy-load'); } observer.unobserve(image); } }); }); images.forEach(function(image) { imageObserver.observe(image); }); });
Later on you can enqueue this JS using word press hook in active themes functions.php
wp_enqueue_script('lazy-load-images', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/lazy-load-images.js', array(), '1.0.0', true);
