    Hello,

    I signed up for the cloud service and entered my API key in the plugin settings but getting tons of errors on the settings page in the admin:

    Warning: exec() [function.exec]: Unable to fork [jpegtran
    Warning: exec() [function.exec]: Unable to fork [optipng -v 2>&1]
    Warning: exec() [function.exec]: Unable to fork [/usr/bin/gifsicle –version 2>&1]
    …etc

    I’ve disabled all of the options using the above in the ‘Advanced’ tab.

    How can I get rid of these errors?

    Make sure all 3 file types are enabled on the cloud tab, otherwise the plugin is operating in a sort of ‘hybrid’ mode and still checks the local tools.

    Yep that did it – thanks.

    One feature request:

    Would be great to have the ability to use the local server for optimization on a local install (using MAMP Pro) and cloud on a live site. Not sure how you would implement that but obviously I wouldn’t need to pay for image optimization through the cloud on a local site.

    As it is now, I have to use the cloud on my local install since I am using WP Migrate DB Pro to push to the live site. If I don’t have EIO set to use the cloud then it will overwrite the settings during migration.

    It sucks that Media Temple does not support these optimizer binaries out of the box. Not much I can do as the client is already entrenched on there and on shared hosting.

    Anyway, great plugin – I install it on every site I work on ??

    I’m not sure how I would do that either. Does Migrate DB Pro let you execute sql queries after the push?
    If so, you could simply inject the cloud key and activate the cloud file type options in the wp_options table.

    Unfortunately no – you cannot add a sql query after the push.

    Ah, but you can preserve options during the push. I got this back from the developers:

    You can use the wpmdb_preserved_options filter to preserve rows within the wp_options table. Take a look at the tweaks plugin for an example:

    https://github.com/deliciousbrains/wp-migrate-db-pro-tweaks/blob/master/wp-migrate-db-pro-tweaks.php#L54

    You can just download that file, uncomment the appropriate filter, and add these options to the function:

    ewww_image_optimizer_cloud_key
    ewww_image_optimizer_cloud_jpg
    ewww_image_optimizer_cloud_png
    ewww_image_optimizer_cloud_gif
    ewww_image_optimizer_cloud_png_compress

    There are a few more for lossy options, but it doesn’t sound like you’re using those, so no need to preserve them.

    Oh that’s perfect. I had no idea that tweaks file even existed.

    Thanks for that!! Will give that a go.
