Cumulative Layout Shift

Our site site currently suffers from several instances of Cumulative Layout Shift, specifically around images without specific dimensions. In the past year, Google has put an increased importance on this metric for Search Engine ranking due to its impact on the user's experience. Given the reliance on Photo modules in the Blackbaud platform we are unable to manually make the changes necessary to achieve compliance and are being penalized by Google.

Are there plans on the product roadmap to address these issues? If so, when can we expect to see a fix? If not, are there any suggested workarounds or changes that can be made? Ideally, we’d like the ability to set the height and width attributes for images.

    THIS! There are many CLS instances on our site, as well. Please let us know what BB plans to do to address the issue. Thanks!
