Hi team, thank you as always for being awesome! Hope all is well!
I’m running into a bit of a problem with easy loading conflicting with animations on one of my pages. Here is the page: https://www.highereducationfest.com/he-battle-of-the-bands-2022/
I’ve been using smush to first compress, and then easy load images on pages… as I have some pages with a lot of information on them… like this one for example: https://www.highereducationfest.com/higher-education-music-lineup/
Smush has been super useful in speeding up load times, and everything was fine when I built out that battle of the bands page at first. I then tried to activate a shipping tracking woocommerce plugin, so that I could print labels through the site, and woocommerce forced me to turn on jetpack. Woocommerce then stopped working properly, and they initially thought it was because jetpack and smush were conflicting, even though jetpack’s speed accelerator setting was turned off.
It turns out now that woocommerce is simply seeing glitches on their end due to the newest version of wordpress. I then turned smush back on, seeing that it wasn’t the problem, but it now conflicts with the animation on the page in the first link posted above (the battle of the bands page). I currently have smush turned off, as I want the page to work properly, but if you activate the smush plugin, you can clearly see that the page stops working properly.
Is there a way to fix this? I upgraded the site to the newest version of Enfold and everything. I’d love to keep the animations on the page, as they make the main information pop, but I would also love to have easy load enabled somehow, so that other pages load faster.
I’m adding login info below into the private area. Please help me out here.
Cheers,

Thank you for your patience, since the last Smush update it’s lazy loading script has had a conflict/error this is also true for the siteground lazy loading plugin which is built by Smush (WPMU DEV)
most people find that it adds a space below sliders on first page load, and other lazy loading issues.
Smush (WPMU DEV) is working on this on behalf of many Smush Pro users here, I recommend waiting for the next Smush update that will hopefully fix this because we can not edit the Smush plugin from within the theme.Best regards,
MikeAh, I understand. And Woocommerce is also experiencing a ton of glitches on their end.
I think its all because of the newest version of wordpress. Do you think it would make sense to scale back to the older version of wordpress until all these plugin developers have had a chance to catch up?
Hi,
That might be a good idea, it doesn’t look like there was any security fixes since v5.8.3, so you would have a few versions to choose from.Best regards,
MikeCoolio. Which one would you recommend? How do I go about doing so… is there a plugin that you would recommend me using? Or do I do it manually through hosting somehow?
Hi,
I would use WP Downgrade Specific Core Version, and just go down to the next available version. Try on a test site first to see how it works, as I recall from a couple of years ago it worked easily, but I have not tried it lately.
If you installed WordPress through your webhost installer, there might be a downgrading option there too, that might be an option to keep the install version number and the actual version number the same.Best regards,
Mike
