What if the slashes were escaped? Would this block Googlebot from seeing them as URLs to crawl? So instead of the above, have this instead:

\/wp-content\/themes\/twentytwentyfive\/*

Still, seems like Googlebot could be a tiny bit smarter with how it discovered possible URLs to crawl, like automatically exclude speculationrules.

@mmwbadmin Sorry, I’m just seeing this support topic. (I’m now subscribed to see new topics in the future.)

Are you still experiencing this issue? I just checked your site and I’m not seeing a flash of the featured image. Otherwise, you may be experiencing this issue: Why are my view transitions blinking?

There is a View Transitions settings section on the Reading settings screen. While it requires being able to come up with the necessary CSS selectors, you may be able to use that to get the view transitions to work in Elementor.

Note: I did just notice a bug which impacts when the article transitions can run.

I believe I was able to reproduce the issue which I filed: Article view transition does not apply when using a static page for posts.

I opened a pull request to fix this. I included a build for testing.

I’ll resolve this topic, but please do provide feedback either here or on the issue/PR. Thank you.

@gravnetic Sorry, just seeing your support topic now.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by priority conflicts? If needed, you could create an issue on GitHub which would allow you to add screenshots and/or a screen recording.

@tunetheweb Interesting. So given this:

<script type="speculationrules">
{
  "prerender": [
    {
      "source": "document",
      "where": {
        "and": [
          {
            "href_matches": "/*"
          },
          {
            "not": {
              "href_matches": [
                "/wp-*.php",
                "/wp-admin/*",
                "/wp-content/uploads/*",
                "/wp-content/*",
                "/wp-content/plugins/*",
                "/wp-content/themes/twentytwentyfive/*",
                "/*\\?(.+)"
              ]
            }
          },
          {
            "not": {
              "selector_matches": "a[rel~=\"nofollow\"]"
            }
          },
          {
            "not": {
              "selector_matches": ".no-prerender, .no-prerender a"
            }
          },
          {
            "not": {
              "selector_matches": ".no-prefetch, .no-prefetch a"
            }
          }
        ]
      },
      "eagerness": "moderate"
    }
  ]
}
</script>

You’re saying that Search may discover what look like URLs inside of the SCRIPT tag and try to crawl them (e.g. /wp-content/themes/twentytwentyfive/*) even though they aren’t explicitly links? That’s surprising.

I’m looking at the first example: https://locksmithunit.es/cerrajero-santa-coloma/

I can see there are quite a few IMG tags that have the data-od-unknown-tag attribute. This indicates that there haven’t been URL Metrics collected for that URL. In looking at the HTML source, it seems there is corruption. For example, look at this malformed HTML:

<div class="modal-dialog" style="max-width: 450px;" "="">

It seems you have some HTML minification that is corrupting the markup, or you have some malformed markup to begin with. This seems to be preventing Optimization Detective from being able to collect URL Metrics.
