Just found that Lazy Load added a background-color of #bcbcbc to my images…does that really speed up load time?
Not sure where to turn it off but I’ll remove it from my css file.
Hi @thejaredisham,
Hummingbird plugin offers caching and file optimization for CSS and JS files, it doesn’t affect images and only Lazy Loading option available in Hummingbird is for comments.
If there’s some CSS that is already applying such background but is overwritten with additional code it’s possible that Asset Optimization affected that when the files were optimized but that would then be resolved when the plugin was disabled.
Due to that, this doesn’t seem to be Hummingbird related but could you share an URL of your site where one of those images can be seen so we can check where that specific CSS could be coming from?
Cheers,

Good to know – I’m not sure what happened. I didn’t notice the issue until I ran the asset optimization. I am noticing now that I get this weird extension to the end of the css files.
…/style.css?ver=5.5.1
Not sure if that is my CDN, Elementor or Hummingbird.
Hi @thejaredisham
The ver=5.5.1 is added from WordPress itself in case no version is defined when the style is registered.
The Hummingbird assets optmization will compress the files, and combine if the theme is a weak CSS selector when the assets optmization combine the files it can override a style.
Is the issue gone if you flush all caches and disable the Assets Optimization?
You can also access the page using this on the URL:
/?avoid-minify=true
E.g:
www.mysite.com/about/?avoid-minify=true
This will prevent the Assets Optmization module for debugs.
It so, would it is possible to let us know what is the page URL where you are having this problem so we can check if a CSS solution for you?

I ended up isolating the CSS that was giving the issue and added it in to my custom CSS.
img.lazyload { background-color: transparent!important;}
Now that I have that I am running through the optimization again to hopefully speed up my site a bit more.
Thanks.
