Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about LeanVisit – Lite Mode for Slow Connections

No. Lite mode only applies to visitors who send the Save-Data header, are detected on a slow connection, or choose lite mode themselves.

Add ?leanvisit=lite to any URL to switch on lite mode for your browser, and ?leanvisit=full to switch it off. You can also use Chrome DevTools network throttling or the Data Saver setting on Chrome for Android.

Yes, with correct setup. Because lite and normal versions of a page differ, your cache must keep them separate. LeanVisit sends a Vary: Save-Data header and sets a cookie named lvisit_mode. In your caching plugin or CDN, configure it to vary the cache by that cookie, or exclude pages for visitors who have it. Check your cache plugin's documentation for "cache by cookie".

Safari does not support the Network Information API and does not send the Save-Data header. Visitors on Safari can still choose lite mode with the manual switch. Add the [leanvisit_switch] shortcode to a page, widget or footer to show the switch links.

Image, video, embed and font changes are conservative. Skipping scripts and styles is more aggressive and is off by default. Test any exclusions you add by visiting your site with ?leanvisit=lite.

Yes. Go to Settings → LeanVisit → Pages that never get lite mode. Cart, checkout and account pages of WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads are protected by default. For any other page, add its path to the exclude list, one per line, for example /payment/ or /members/*.

It is shown to administrators only, on the front of your site. It tells you whether the page you are viewing is in lite or full mode, why, and lets you switch with one click. You can turn it off in the settings.

Go to Settings → LeanVisit → Test your site, enter a page path and click Compare full and lite. The result lists what changed for that page. It compares what the page asks the browser to load; for exact download sizes use your browser's developer tools (Network tab) with the ?leanvisit=lite and ?leanvisit=full links.

Either the page has nothing that lite mode changes (try a page with a video or embed), lite mode is turned off, or a cache served the same page to both tests. See the caching notes on the settings page.

No. LeanVisit does not track visitors and does not contact any external service. See the Privacy section below.
