Lazy Loading on images added via components

You can now apply the lazy loading feature on all the images added via components in a single click instead of doing it one by one in the individual image components.

This provides several valuable benefits, particularly for improving page speed and user experience, and reducing bandwidth usage and costs. Improved page performance will load the page faster, improve SEO ranking, keeping the visitors engaged, reducing bounce rate, and increase conversion rate.
