Removing aria-hidden from background img

[manomano11]

The background image of a section shows sporadically. How can I remove its aria-hidden property?

see https://www.vanessatucker.com/
image is 2homepagecrop.jpg

Many thanks.

Hey @manomano11,

The aria-hidden attribute and its value cannot be removed and I believe it’s not the cause of the issue. Can you show us how it makes the background image show sporadically though so we can forward this case to our development team?

I checked your site on my PC, tablet, and phone and the 2homepagecrop.jpg always loads though so this issue could be experienced on your end only.

I suspect that it’s the lazy loading coupled with the weight of your image that is causing the sporadic loading of the image on your end. Your image weighs 319kb. That’s a bit heavy and it’s not a weight of an optimized image of that size.

Please first deactivate all optimizations in your site including the Lazy Loading of images. This is not done by our theme so you need to check your plugins if you have not enabled that feature in your site.

Also, optimize your image following our performance suggestion here: https://theme.co/docs/how-to-improve-site-performance

Thanks.

Thank you for your help. Yes it looks like it was the lazy loading that was the problem.

Glad to hear it’s sorted, @manomano11.
