image thumbnails not recompressing

Hi @winterk80

Sorry to hear you are having this issue.

I found there is a reported issue and the fix is coming in Smush 3.13 which is our upcoming version https://wpmudev.com/roadmap/#smush

I pinged our developers to verify if this will cover the regenerated thumbnails too.

We will keep you posted.

thanks will wait for your reply

Hi @winterk80

Our developer confirmed it is a bug and we have already tasked it.

Can you please try the following steps:

Add this snippet code:

add_filter('wp_smush_should_resmush', '__return_true', 999 );

2. Go to the bulk smush page and re-check images.
3. Remove the above snippet code.
4. Run Bulk Smush all images.

You can add it to functions.php or as mu-plugin https://wpmudev.com/docs/using-wordpress/installing-wordpress-plugins/#installing-mu-plugins

thanks that appears to be making it redo the thumb images!

As for randomly missing webp images how do we fix that?

Hi @winterk80

Yes, That will reset the status of bulk Smush once you re-smush the images if the image is already compressed it will skip but if not it will Smush the image back.

About WebP, this is a Pro Smush feature, as we only handle Free users in this support area, can you please create a new ticket on https://wpmudev.com/hub2/support

We have 24/7 support there and our developers can verify further what is happening.
