Yes, the .htaccess in uploads is still using your temporary solution code with the paths instead of Document Root variable.

I did remove the .htaccess in the main wordpress folder for a couple of minutes and tested redirection. Still not working.

Really appreciate your help and would totally understand, if you don’t have time for this.

Mateusz,

I really appreciate your help and fast response. I did copy the code to the htaccess in the wp-content/upload directory, but replacement is still not working. I even deactivated Autoptimize and W3 Cache (and flushed caches and local browser data).

To see the content of the Server variable I created a short script.

mod_rewrite, mod_mime and mod_expire are installed according to our sys admin and your example is working, too.

Another interesting thing. I created two test images of my own.

Shows the original image, but when I change the path

https://aicas.com/wp/wp-content/uploads-webpc/uploads/2020/12/shutterstock_1053687887-scaled.jpg
it replaces the image with the (different Webp) without changing the file extension. The way it should work.

I did read the plugin FAQ and did not find out, where the htaccess file modified by Webpc was supposed to be.

Now I found it. It was at /wp/wp-content/uploads and contained following rules

# BEGIN WebP Converter
# ! — DO NOT EDIT PREVIOUS LINE — !
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} image/webp
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/wp/wp-content/uploads-webpc/uploads/$1.jpg.webp -f
RewriteRule (.+)\.jpg$ /wp/wp-content/uploads-webpc/uploads/$1.jpg.webp [NC,T=image/webp,E=cache-control:private,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} image/webp
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/wp/wp-content/uploads-webpc/uploads/$1.jpeg.webp -f
RewriteRule (.+)\.jpeg$ /wp/wp-content/uploads-webpc/uploads/$1.jpeg.webp [NC,T=image/webp,E=cache-control:private,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} image/webp
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/wp/wp-content/uploads-webpc/uploads/$1.png.webp -f
RewriteRule (.+)\.png$ /wp/wp-content/uploads-webpc/uploads/$1.png.webp [NC,T=image/webp,E=cache-control:private,L]
</IfModule>

# END WebP Converter

The thing is, this still does not replace the original files with webp files, although the webp files are available (I did regenerate existing images) and can manually load the webp files in the browser, when I enter the URL.

I checked the .htaccess files in the root directory, wp directory and wp-content directory. None contained any lines from the plugin and had not been updated recently.

As far as I understand one of those should have been updated to include redirect rules?
