* Hello, could you expand the core functionality of the plugin with lazy loading
HTML elements.
I am currently doing something similar, manually, with content-
visibility CSS property for the supported browsers. It helps a lot reducing the
DOM size of the page and improving the loading time, especially for longer pages.

* Hi [@snipsnip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snipsnip/),
* Do you move some content to AJAX requests, or do I misunderstand?

* I am not sure if it uses ajax. I set the elements to auto and they are loaded
only when I scroll to them. For example, the footer or the related products in
the single product page. There are many more elements that I have set to content-
visibility: auto. Probably I can optimize even more but would be great if there
was a plugin for that to make it automatic – to lazy load whole divs. Also, it
doesn’t work in firefox/firefox mobile or safari – it is not supported.

* Hi [@snipsnip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snipsnip/),
* I see. So this is delaying the rendering of those elements.

* It’s an interesting feature but I don’t currently have any plans to add this
to PhastPress.
