  Unable to Remove data-src Attribute – Lazy Load Still Active After Disabling Everything

  Hello,

  I’m facing an issue with image lazy loading on my WooCommerce site and I cannot find where it’s coming from.

  My goal is to completely disable lazy loading and remove the data-src attribute from product images. 🔹 My Setup

  • WordPress site
  • WooCommerce active
  • Hosting: Hostinger with CDN enabled
  • All optimization / cache / lazy-load plugins are deactivated
  • I even switched to a default WordPress theme for testing

  🔹 The Problem

  Even after disabling plugins and changing the theme, my product images still output this HTML:

  <img src="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/image.jpg" class="wp-post-image" data-src="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/image.jpg" data-large_image="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/image.jpg" data-large_image_width="760" data-large_image_height="760" >

  I understand that data-large_image is normal for WooCommerce zoom/lightbox, but I cannot find the source of data-src.

  Important points:

  • It still appears after deactivating all plugins
  • It still appears after changing the theme
  • WordPress core normally uses loading="lazy", not data-src
  • Hostinger CDN does not seem to inject HTML

  So I’m confused about what is generating data-src. 🔹 What I Already Tried

  • Deactivated all plugins
  • Switched to a default theme
  • Cleared browser cache
  • Purged Hostinger CDN cache
  • Searched theme files for data-src
  • Checked JS files for lazy load logic

  But data-src keeps appearing in View Source. 🔹 What I Want

  • Fully disable image lazy loading
  • Remove the data-src attribute from WooCommerce product images
  • Understand what system (core / WooCommerce / cache / JS) is adding it

  🔹 My Question

  Where does data-src come from if no plugins and no theme lazy load are active?
  Is WooCommerce adding this internally now, or is it coming from cached HTML / CDN optimization?

  Any guidance on how to properly disable it would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.
