webp support

Hi?@wailtail,

Unable to upload webp images using WP User Frontend

Currently, WebP image support is not available with the WP User Frontend. Therefore, there are no settings available to enable WebP image uploads for the featured image.

I’ve already added this request to our roadmap. I hope it will be included in our upcoming release.

Hope you understand.

Regards!

Hi @wailtail ??
What @saifislam01 is telling you is absolutely not true, and I don’t know why he don’t want to share this information with you. It’s an easy fix!

@wailtail to to add webp support, follow these easy steps:

For featured image:
– Open the file “class-field-featured-image.php” and add “webp” to the line of image formats (about line 92)

For image upload (gallery):
– Open the file “class-field-image.php” and add “webp” to the line of image formats (about line 75)

(The exact line number can vary depending on what version you are running, but it’s easy to spot)

You will find these files in the folder:
wp-content/plugins/wp-user-frontend/includes/fields

The reason for the lack of support for this fileformat, (that WordPress has supported since 2001) I guess is that weDevs simply are dragging ass. Webp support is critical for many large sites, so I just can’t comprehend why the don’t quick fix this ASAP. That said, don’t get it wrong, I just love weDevs products, they deliver a lot of functionality that others just don’t. So this is just a little deserved feedback ??
