Preload Featured Images 1.1.0Latest
- Fixed: the preload link now includes fetchpriority="high". Without it the LCP image was preloaded at Low priority and the in-flight preload “won” the request, so the image downloaded at Low priority despite the rendered having fetchpriority=high — failing PageSpeed’s “LCP request discovery” audit.
- Fixed: separate mobile/desktop image sizes now use cache-safe responsive media preloads instead of wp_is_mobile(), which was unreliable behind any page cache.
- Fixed: mobile visitors no longer miss the preload when only a desktop image size is configured.
- Fixed: front-end preloading no longer depends on the admin having initialized the theme defaults.
- Improved: settings input is now validated against your site’s registered image sizes.
- Improved: cleaner, escaped preload markup output.
- Tested up to WordPress 7.0.
