    Hey guys,
    is it possible to request a bit of help – long-time user of Litespeed, all images optimised on a particular site with every last aspect of the plug-in set correctly.

    Just, not a single image serving as WebP.

    Pretty much tried everything from checking hosting, the htaccess file, the settings, the allowance, the IP, the this – the that .. nothing. Hence, could do with some help if possible.

    emmm? I can see a lot of webp , what exactly do you see on your browser?

    Keeping an example simple, visit the homepage and view any image – nothing is showing as WebP.

    That’s on Chrome / Safari.

    In isolation, this: wp-content/uploads/2024/06/HH-Website_Home-Page-Image-1500×630.jpg

    That’s definitely … definitely showing as webp in, say, Chrome if you right click and inspect?

    Because across multiple devices in multiple different locations on multiple different OS’s, it’s just jpg.

    I see you applied the htaccess trick , that will keep the file URI as before, but under the hood it will be webp file if exists, like my screenshot

    The trick I deployed was just ye olde ‘grab JS and background images and convert / serve’ … I’m not aware of a write rule which retained .jpg / .jpeg ?

    If that’s what you’re suggesting?

    (I appreciate the help, also)

    no no , that trick still works , and I can see it works, by my screenshot

    Yep, I can see that following your screenshot.

    My confusion was in ‘right-click, inspect’ and the image was showing as jpeg / jpg … hopefully you can appreciate that confusion.

    I guess, it’s a jpeg, however, actually webp.

    yes, the htaccess trick will NOT modify the URI , but only serve the webp under the hook

    so yes, the URI shows “.jpg” , but it’s actually “.webp” underneath

    Right.

    Thank you, qtwrk.
