cloudflare and lscache

Hi mcdeth!

1. Yes, of course. Just make sure all image optimization settings are off and that’s all.
2. Yes.
3. Yes, here you have all the information: https://shortpixel.com/knowledge-base/article/46-how-to-optimize-images-in-wordpress-themes-and-plugins
4. They are stored locally. All our plugin does is compress the image files you have on disk.

Cheers!

Awesome, thanks for prompt reply! Question regarding storing #4 though, manual says “SPAI only replaces the URL on each of your pages so they are served from our CDN, not the original URL of the file.”

So is it on cdn or locally? or is it stored on cdn after user visits my website and works like a cache?

It’s like you say, mcdeth: a user visits your page, the plugin retrieves the image, stores it in the CDN and then changes the URL of the image to point to the CDN. This change is done on-the-fly, it is not permanent. Here you have a more elaborate explanation: https://shortpixel.com/knowledge-base/article/132-how-shortpixel-adaptive-images-work
