Ok, thanks for the info. When I check the google robots.txt report it shows the wordpress file, not the yoast virtual file. Image. Is there something I need to do to make google detect the virtual file?

Thanks, that fixed it

I’m seeing the issue in Safari mobile (iPhone xs) & safari desktop browser. Also chrome mobile browser.

Setting max width and height didn’t work.

It is possible that this issue already existed. And the tests you’ve suggested seem to exclude Imagify as the problem. So I’ll test this further on my own. Thank you

I deleted webp versions for those three images and the problems still happens (cleared cache, private browser). Sometimes the images load large, sometimes they don’t, and sometimes they load large and then snap back to normal size. Maybe it’s another CSS issue?

I use Cloudflare. If I deactivate webp and the problem goes away, what is the solution? I would still like to use webp for images if i can

I updated to 1.4.0. The problem did not go away.

I made the image in slide 2 the background image with no animations and now a higher res version of the pic appears.

Here is what Imagify said:

Here is the code that is displaying the image you linked to:

I think there is an issue with the responsive code used (which Imagify does not do anything with).

Have you tried viewing the page with your browser opened wide? If I do, it will actually load the higher resolution image (try wider than 1300px):

I know that GWS may be saying it’s due to us, but being that we don’t touch your actual code used to display this image, I have to say I don’t think it is due to Imagify.

Let me know what you think and if I’ve missed anything. I’ll be glad to continue assisting however I can!

Best regards,

So it looks like an issue with GWS responsive code. Not sure why that would affect some images in the slideshow and not the others.

I see that at >1300px screen a higher res image is loaded. I can see that Imagify isn’t the cause of this problem if it has nothing to do with the responsive code. Thanks for the insight.

I deactivated Imagify, then deleted one of the low res images from the story and added it back in. Saved. The image still appears low res. I will ask Imagify if they know why a smaller version of the image is being served

The Imagery plugin creates several versions of an image. I did not choose for the lower res copy to be used in the slide. In the editing panel, a higher res version of the image appears.

Does the editing panel show the original image URL? I can’t find a way to see that.

Thanks for the details. I’m using a CDN, so I may try the helper plugin. For now I’ll avoid CSS borders.

Do you think this issue may go away with future updates, or when Safari begins to fully support WebP?

The issue was that my theme (Epik) was using a blog template for the home page that was visually overridden by widgets. So Yoast was detecting that it was a blog page even though it looked like a regular page. I made some php changes to the theme, that fixed the issue.

To follow up here, I enabled Yoast breadcrumbs. My pages now show breadcrumb Schema.

Search results for my site still show the full URL rather than the organization name. Still a mystery!

My theme (genesis) has breadcrumbs and they typically do display in both desktop and mobile SERP. For other sites with breadcrumbs that display on mobile SERP, the first thing shown in the breadcrumb is the organization name rather than the site URL.

In the image below, you can see the small “>…” next to my domain name, suggesting there is a breadcrumb that is too long to display. In my competitor’s listing beneath, their organization name is displayed in the breadcrumb rather than their site URL.

This blog post by google explains a bit more about the new mobile SERP. It was rolled out in May 2019, so it’s still somewhat new.

Thanks for the explanation and resources. It’s plausible that Google is choosing to display things differently for some reason, but my situation is different than what is covered in the links you provided.

In my case Google is displaying my site URL instead of my organization name. Other sites have their schema organization name displayed above the page title. On mobile search results for my site, the site URL is displayed and doesn’t look as professional as other listings.

It looks like Yoast is outputting the correct Schema, so maybe Google has decided the URL is better to display than the org name. But I’m hoping to change that
