Hi

I want use lazy load script in my theme so I need add_filter to the_content and ACF Wyswig editor.

So for filtering ‘acf_the_content’ i use this part of code:

add_filter('acf_the_content', 'replace_img_src', 11);
function replace_img_src($replace_img_src)
{
    //-- Change src/srcset to data attributes.
    $replace_img_src = preg_replace("/<img(.*?)(src=|srcset=)(.*?)>/i", '<img$1data-$2$3>', $replace_img_src);
    //-- Add .lazyload class to each image that already has a class.
    $replace_img_src = preg_replace('/<img(.*?)class=\"(.*?)\"(.*?)>/i', '<img$1class="$2 lozad"$3>', $replace_img_src);
    //-- Add .lazyload class to each image that doesn't have a class.
    $replace_img_src = preg_replace('/<img(.*?)(?!\bclass\b)(.*?)/i', '<img$1 class="lozad"$2', $replace_img_src);
    return $replace_img_src;
}

but it’s works only for images inserted directly in field, not with WP Gallery. How to force this script to works with any images in Wysiwyg field?

Thanks!

For sure, when I use the_content filter then this script works with WP Gallery without any problems.
