AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Disable Lazy Load is a highly rated WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 23 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (4.5★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction
- +Published by Jeff Starr — established developer track record
Cons
- −Limited review base (23) — ratings can shift significantly with new feedback

How Disable Lazy Load works
Show full descriptionShow less
Does one thing: disables WP Lazy Load feature.
Activate this plugin to disable the new WP Lazy Loading functionality (added in WP version 5.5). To re-enable lazy loading at any time, simply deactivate the plugin.
Features
Lightweight – only one line of code
Simple to use – activate and done
No permanent changes are made
No settings to worry about
Easy peasy.
Why is this useful?
Because there are plugins that already implement lazy loading. So when upgrading to WP v5.5, there may be conflicting or redundant functionality. That’s not ideal. So with WordPress 5.5 and beyond, you can either remove your existing lazy-load solution, or more simply disable the WP-generated one. Or maybe you just don’t want lazy loading on some particular site. Whatever the reason, this plugin will do the job with a click.
