Lazy Load Images

Lazy loading allows Robo Gallery to load images only when they become visible on the screen. This significantly improves page performance and reduces initial page load time, especially for large galleries.

Lazy Load is available in both:

  • Classic Grid galleries
  • Fusion Grid galleries

In Classic galleries, lazy loading can be enabled in the Loading Options panel.

Classic Loading Options

Enable the Lazy Load switch to activate the feature.

Important settings

  • Images Amount Number of images loaded when the gallery first appears on the page.

  • Load More Amount Number of additional images loaded when the Load More button is clicked.

  • Wait Thumbs Load Waits until thumbnails are fully loaded before displaying the gallery.

  • Wait No Matter What Forces the gallery to wait for all images before rendering.

You can also customize the loading interface:

  • Loading Label
  • Load More Label
  • No More Entries Label

In Fusion galleries, lazy loading works together with pagination and infinite scrolling.

Lazy loading is automatically used when one of the following navigation modes is enabled:

  • Load More
  • Infinite Scroll
  • Pagination

Additional navigation options

  • Images Per Page – controls how many images are initially loaded.
  • Load More – loads additional images on demand.
  • Infinite Scroll – automatically loads more images while scrolling.

When to Use Lazy Loading

Lazy loading is recommended when:

  • galleries contain many images
  • pages need better performance
  • images are large or high resolution

It is especially useful for portfolio, photography, and product galleries.


Tips for Best Performance

  • Use optimized images whenever possible.
  • Combine Lazy Load + Load More for large galleries.
  • Avoid loading hundreds of images at once.

This ensures your gallery loads quickly and provides a smooth user experience.
