RG Fetch Priority enhances the WordPress block editor by adding a fetchpriority setting to Image and Cover blocks.

Summary

  • Adds a fetch priority control to supported blocks in the editor
  • Supports default, high, and auto values
  • Helps improve perceived loading performance and Core Web Vitals
  • Keeps the plugin focused on editor controls and front-end output, without the legacy in-plugin Git updater

Description

The plugin makes it easy to control how important key images are when the browser decides what to load first. Editors can choose the priority directly in the block settings panel, which gives a simple way to tune image loading behavior for better page speed and user experience.

Installation

  1. Download or clone the plugin into /wp-content/plugins/rg-fetch-priority.
  2. Activate the plugin from the WordPress admin.
  3. Open the block editor and select an Image or Cover block to configure fetch priority.

Usage

  1. Insert or select an Image or Cover block.
  2. Open the block settings sidebar.
  3. Choose the desired fetch priority value.
