Images are optimized but not served as webp

    In the AO settings on the Images tab, I have the following enabled:
    * Optimize images on the fly and serve them from Shortpixel’s global CDN
    (Shortpixel status: Your ShortPixel image optimization and CDN quota are in good shape)
    * Image Optimization quality = Glossy
    * Automatically serve “next-gen” WebP image format to any browser that supports it
    * Image lazy-loading

    When I view of this site’s pages in Chrome (Version 83.0.4103.61), I can see they’re being served from https://cdn.shortpixel.ai/ but they are all still JPG and PNG format. Also, Google PageSpeed is still suggesting “Serve images in next-gen formats”.

    What am I missing?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I had a look; 4 images are served as webp, one as jpg;

    the one that isn’t transformed in webp is the big background image, reason being background images can’t be lazyloaded so Autoptimize can’t intervene to make it webp.

    hope this clarifies,

    What are you displaying that table with? I use Chrome developer tools, but it doesn’t look like that. Is ShortPixel also generating svg files? We have none on our site but there are some in that list.

    that’s the network tab in Firefox, filtered on images.

    yes, if you have image optimization and lazyload both active, the plugin first loads “low quality placeholder images” first which are SVG and then has lazysizes load the real images.
