<p>Quicklink for WordPress attempts to make navigation to subsequent pages load faster. Embedded with the plugin is a javascript library, which detects links in the viewport, waits until the browser is idle and prefetches the URLs for these links. The library also tries to detect, if the user is on a slow connection or on a data plan.</p>
<p>This plugin builds heavily on the amazing work done by <a href="https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/quicklink" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Chrome Labs</a>.</p>
<p>More information about <a href="https://getquick.link" rel="nofollow ugc">Quicklink on the official Website</a>.</p>
<h4>How it works</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Detects links within the viewport</strong> (using <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Intersection_Observer_API" rel="nofollow ugc">Intersection Observer</a>)</li>
<li><strong>Waits until the browser is idle</strong> (using <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/requestIdleCallback" rel="nofollow ugc">requestIdleCallback</a>)</li>
<li><strong>Checks if the user isn’t on a slow connection</strong> (using <code>navigator.connection.effectiveType</code>) or has data-saver enabled (using <code>navigator.connection.saveData</code>)</li>
<li><strong>Prefetches URLs to the links</strong> (using <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/resource-hints/#prefetch" rel="nofollow ugc"><code><link rel=prefetch></code></a> or XHR). Provides some control over the request priority (can switch to <code>fetch()</code> if supported).</li>
</ul>

Quicklink for WordPress

Thanks for publishing this. Works really well. Would be nice to see option to loading Quicklink from a CDN.

Great plugin

⚡️ Faster subsequent page-loads by prefetching in-viewport links during idle time.

<p>Preload Featured Images automatically in posts to increase the PageSpeed Score.</p>
<p>This plugin is a “must-have” for websites using themes that display the Featured Image automatically at the top in single post pages.</p>
<h3>Why was this plugin created?</h3>
<p>Suppose your theme displays the Featured Image at the top in posts automatically. In that case, the chances that the image is the <strong>LCP (Largest Contentful Paint)</strong> are very high, so the PageSpeed tool will highly recommend you to preload it.</p>
<p>Are you getting the following recommendation when testing the PageSpeed score of a single post: <strong>“Preload Largest Contentful Paint image”</strong>? Then this plugin will help you!</p>
<h3>How it works?</h3>
<p>Go to the <strong>Settings > Preload Featured Images</strong> page and choose the image size used by your theme to make sure the right image size is preloaded.</p>
<h3>Compatible Themes</h3>
<p>The plugin supports all themes, but it’s very important to choose the right Image Size on the settings page.</p>
<p>If you are not sure which is the image size used by your theme, simply get in touch with your theme’s developer and they will be able to help you with that.</p>
<p>If you’re using one of the following popular themes, then the plugin will automatically pick the right Image Size, so you don’t have to configure anything:</p>
<ul>
<li>Foodica</li>
<li>Foodica PRO</li>
<li>Gourmand</li>
<li>Cookely</li>
<li>Astra</li>
<li>Neve</li>
<li>OceanWP</li>
<li>GeneratePress</li>
<li>BlossomRecipe</li>
