Original Source cant be opened in Lightboxes

By igitt23 on December 29, 2023

Hi there,

Great Plugin so far! All images for newly uploaded images are in WebP now. That works great!

But i run in a little Problem:
The images cant be open in a lightbox.

I upload a image in PNG
The frontend now shows all kind of sizes in the frontend in WebP.

But when i click at the image to open it in a lightbox, it tries to open the original File with a wepb fileextension, wich does not exist. Do you have any fix for that? If i cant open the images in a lightbox this plugin wont help a lot 🙁

I get an 404 in the dev console after clicking on the image for a lightbox view

Thanks for your support!

AVIF not supported

By Hans Konings (kamawp) on February 1, 2023

I removed the plugin as soon as I saw the AVIF option greyed out. I might try this plugin again once AVIF is supported.

Great!

work fine and simple of usage, it's a shame for not AVIF compression..

Works great

I am very glad that I can keep the countless image sizes that WordPress itself and all the various plugins that I'm using require more efficiently stored on my server and delivered faster to my visitors. This plugin works great and this functionality should be built into the WordPress core!

some problems

By walter2 on February 10, 2022
