    Hi Zach,

    Since it’s a staging website, I have created a new super admin account(wpmudevnithin) so that we could access your dashboard with ease.

    I could notice the issue when tested on your website. The latest update of the Smush plugin should have worked for such anomalies noticed, seems like the fix doesn’t seem to work in your website.

    I’m bringing this into our developer’s attention to see what could be causing this and will get back to you once I get further feedback regarding the status of the issue asap.

    Kind Regards,

    Nithin

    Hi Zach,

    On further troubleshooting, it seems like your theme is adding the following classno-js in the HTML tag via header.php file template.

    The above class is added in order to load CSS with Javascript disabled. Smush detects this, and hence causes the images not load when Lazyload is enabled, as the “no-js” class gives an impression of javascript is disabled.

    I have brought this into the developers attention so that we could check further about what could be done in such use cases out of the box.

    In the mean while, I have added the following code in the staging website, as mu-plugins:

    <?php
    

    
function wpmu_change_js_class() {
    
echo '<script>document.documentElement.className = document.documentElement.className.replace("no-js","js");</script>'. "n";
    
}
    
add_action( 'wp_head', 'wpmu_change_js_class', 1 );

    Which should fix the issue noticed. Please do check, and let us know if you have any further query. Have a nice day ahead.

    Best Regards,

    Nithin
