Lazy loading suggestions

    OnePress, being primarily a (possibly very long) single page theme, could really take advantage of lazy loading of all images particularly Google maps and background (CSS) images. Is there any best practices or suggestions as to the best way to prevent all the frontpage content being downloaded up front?

    Hi @markc,

    We recommend you should optimize your images and use the cache plugin to speed up your site.
    For example : https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/

    Hope it helps!

    I have settled on a combination of WordFences “performance settings” using the Falcon engine (plus nginx custom rules) and Autoptimize but gtmetrix.com was still showing that the test site was taking 64 seconds to load the full Plus demo content. This is a worst case test server (an old core-duo laptop) on a very ordinary ~5Mbit ADSL link.

    A reasonable solution is to use the BJ Lazy Load plugin which reduced the page load time dramatically to 25 seconds.
