    I am getting this error:

    cURL error 28: Connection timed out after 10001 milliseconds
    There was an error connecting to the image compression server. This could mean either the server is temporarily unavailable or there are connectivity issues with your internet connection. Please try later.

    I can see this has been addressed before and the posts have been marked as resolved with no apparent resolution, how do I get around this?

    It seems like the problem might be caused by a firewall or security plugin blocking the connection. Could you try disabling these to check if the issue persists?

    We’re currently using the resmush.it API for image compression. If you still encounter connection problems, consider reaching out to their team directly. They can provide guidance on whitelisting IP addresses and any other necessary steps. Contact them via this link: https://resmush.it/contact

    Yes I’ve been in touch with them and troubleshooted, the issue isn’t with their servers it’s due to the WP-optimise plugin, something isn’t right on your side.

    Why do you keep marking these posts as resolved when they are clearly not? You just keep answering with the same comments and they aren’t resolving anything?

    Apologies for the inconvenience. I’ll keep this thread open and let you mark it as resolved once everything is sorted. In the meantime, could you please provide the support ticket number you received from resmush.it? This will help us investigate the issue further.

    @wpmansour This is an ongoing issue for multiple users. My case was also marked as resolved when it wasn’t: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/connection-timed-out-after-10001-milliseconds-2/#post-17741037

    This appears to be an issue between WPOptimize and reSmush.it API usage: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/resmush-it-api-usage-by-wp-optimize/

    Hi @deeuk & @tpolmike ,

You can reach out to them directly via their contact page: reSmush.it (https://resmush.it/contact).

    If the problem persists after contacting them or if they don’t respond, please share your support ticket ID with us. This will enable us to prioritize and escalate the issue appropriately.

    Thank you for your cooperation, and we look forward to resolving this promptly for you!

    Hi there,

    It’s Adrian from reSmush.it!

    The issue in this scenario seems to be that the REST API is not working on your website anymore, so external CURLs are not working either which make you unable to use the image optimization feature.

    This can also be observed in WP-Admin > Tools > Site Health

    Unfortunately, this is not something we can fix from our end as it’s not related to our servers and would need to be fixed from your end. When the REST API is working again, everything should be back to normal and you should be able to optimize images with WP Optimize or reSmush.it

    If you need more assistance regarding this issue please reach out to us at https://resmush.it/contact/

    All the best,
