Title: Google Page Speed Test Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Google Page Speed Test * Resolved [roner77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roner77/) * (@roner77) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/) * Hello Jordy, * I have a paid version of your plugin. It’s great and works like a charm, however when I do a page speed test using Google’s services it’s giving me a 0/100 for speed because of the Retina images. * Here’s what it says: “Optimize the following images to reduce their size by 9.1MiB( 97% reduction). Compressing and resizing [http://www.continuagroup.com/…tent/uploads/2015/06/Karin-head-shot.png](http://www.continuagroup.com/…tent/uploads/2015/06/Karin-head-shot.png) could save 3.3MiB (99% reduction).” * It lists all of the images that I used with the plugin. * All images that are not retina do not come up. * I’m using the following settings in Retain 2x. * PictureFill Keep IMG SRC use lazysizes * These were recommend in the plugin so I used them. * I’m not using a caching plugin just yet. * My question is – is this inherent in the way the plug in works? Is there a way to set up the plugin so it scores better on Google’s page test? * Thanks, Aaron * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-retina-2x/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-retina-2x/) Viewing 13 replies - 1 through 13 (of 13 total) * Plugin Author [Jordy Meow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tigroumeow/) * (@tigroumeow) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6299862) * Hello Aaron, * Which page did you test? Google should only get the non-retina images… definitely the plugin wouldn’t force the retina images to be used, except if you checked the Debug option. * Thread Starter [roner77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roner77/) * (@roner77) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6299984) * Hi Jordy. * I’m testing continuagroup.com. * Here are the test results: * [https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.continuagroup.com%2F](https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.continuagroup.com%2F) * Thanks for your help with this 🙂 * Aaron * Thread Starter [roner77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roner77/) * (@roner77) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6299985) * Also, I’m not using the debug mode but I did set image quality to 100 if that would make this big of a difference. * Aaron * Plugin Author [Jordy Meow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tigroumeow/) * (@tigroumeow) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6299991) * When Google access the website (or pagespeed), it shouldn’t be able to see your retina images. The problem is that on your website I noticed it is not really the retina images generated by the plugin which are used 🙂 You are using directly the Full Size images everywhere, which is why PS Insights is crying 🙂 * In your posts, you should use image sizes (medium for example) but not the full- size. If you do, yeah, the biggest/original image will be used which is way too big. * Basically, the plugin doesn’t even change your page right now. It might have generated the retina images but it’s not using them. * Thread Starter [roner77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roner77/) * (@roner77) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6299994) * Gotcha. I think I misunderstood what the plugin does haha * I got it now, I think. I’ll try again and if it works I’ll come back and mark this as closed 🙂 * Thread Starter [roner77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roner77/) * (@roner77) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6299999) * One last question, Jordy. * So all I need to do is drop, for example, this url on my page: * [http://www.continuagroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Support2-1-150×150.png](http://www.continuagroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Support2-1-150×150.png) * and then this will display if it’s a non-retina device or low res machine. * But if it’s a high resolution machine or a retina device it will automatically pull in this url: * [http://www.continuagroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Support2-1-150×150@2x.png](http://www.continuagroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Support2-1-150×150@2x.png) * Or should I start with the 2x image? This is what I’m confused about still. Which url do I place on the page? Also, I’ve placed the first url above on the page and then tested on my machine but it does not pull in the 2x image. I’m using a Dell XPS 15 2014 model with a screen res of 3200 x 1800 pixels- a very high resolution so I thought it would work. The image doesn’t look crisp like my full size did. * Plugin Author [Jordy Meow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tigroumeow/) * (@tigroumeow) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6300002) * Exactly 🙂 You don’t need to think about Retina at all, just use your WordPress normally, and use preferably the image sizes. You really never need to think about @2x or retina files when everything is setup properly (which can be the case by default). * High resolution and Retina is two different things. * Really, doesn’t look as crisp? What’s the exact URL and position of your that image? * Thread Starter [roner77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roner77/) * (@roner77) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6300003) * right, I understand Retina and high res are different, I was just hoping it would work in high res Windows machines too. * Same page, continuagroup.com and it’s the main image – [http://www.continuagroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/hs-screen-sidexsidecontnet-2048px-1024×648.png](http://www.continuagroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/hs-screen-sidexsidecontnet-2048px-1024×648.png) * I used the 1024 image but I think the space is about 600-700. * Does it pull in the retina image on your Mac? * Maybe I need to make the large WP image size smaller than 1024. * BTW – thanks for the great support. I do understand how it works now. I’ll just drop in the non-retina and it will grab the retina image as needed. * Aaron * Plugin Author [Jordy Meow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tigroumeow/) * (@tigroumeow) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6300005) * I think they have PC machines with Retina displays now. Of course Apple has and Google also has High-DPI displays computers but I think there are PCs now too: [http://www.theverge.com/2013/6/26/4465442/windows-8-1-will-finally-add-retina-display-support](http://www.theverge.com/2013/6/26/4465442/windows-8-1-will-finally-add-retina-display-support). * Also, it seems people are trying Windows 10 on MacBook Retina and it works very well: [http://9to5mac.com/2015/05/15/retina-macbook-windows-10/](http://9to5mac.com/2015/05/15/retina-macbook-windows-10/). * I checked your page but the page has not been properly rewritten.

Please drop him a message if you have some time, hopefully he will try to find a way to make it work with me. On my side, I can’t do anything about it, I can only stop his plugin (this option) from working and do my stuff. Basically now it is the other way, he is “taking over” me. * Thread Starter [roner77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roner77/) * (@roner77) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-page-speed-test/#post-6300012) * ah, gotcha.
