Wp_get_attachment full size get WebP version

Thanks for your comments @feverinlove and I agree with this behavior in fact we do have an open issue with a suggested approach that you can find it here:

In case you want to take a look and provide some feedback.

Hi there.
Just wondered if there was any update on this? Am being penalised with Core web vitals for not using webp in various places where we’re using the wp_get_attachment_image() function.
Would be good to know if we need to start rebuilding this or if likely to be updated soon?
And also, thanks for the great plugin so far!

Many thanks

Hi @damiendoherty

Work was underway on a core patch for this feature, however it has been paused due to wider feedback on the WebP core patch. Unfortunately, this means it will take some time before this is available as part of WordPress core.

I have just raised a new issue in our GitHub repo to review options to enable WebP images in templates as a plugin feature.

The team will review this there and consider for a future release.

Let me know if you have any other questions

Thanks
