Hi Cody, thanks for all your help, it is showing webp now for me in chrome as well. There must be some sort of caching issue or something that’s preventing me from seeing it for a while. Oh well, as long as it works, that’s good.

Tanks Cody, good to know it’s working for you. I think I’ll have to assume I’m doing something wrong here or missing something obvious (webp is totally new to me as of yesterday). When I go in incognito mode and open that page and click on the image it takes me to the following page with a jpeg extension; https://www.imagesbyvandam.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/wasaga-beach-engagement-photography-32.jpg

What is your process for confirming it’s a webp on a desktop (on my phone it just shows it when I tap on it). Maybe I’m trying to confirm it’s webp the wrong way. Thanks

On my android phone they are indeed coming up as webp. On my desktop, however, in chrome, I’m seeing jpegs. ie. here’s a page with just a single image for simplification: https://www.imagesbyvandam.com/elementor-15847/

Hi Cody, thanks for your reply. I was having some issues with the images on that page reverting back to their non-compressed state (using shortpixel), so I tried compressing images on a different page and have gotten the shortpixel compression to work this time.
This is the page: https://www.imagesbyvandam.com/portfolio/bluewater-beach-engagement-photography-just-north-of-wasaga-in-tiny-township
When I right click on the images in chrome (open in new window) to inspect them, the image opens as a jpeg, not webp. I can replace the .jpeg suffix with .webp and the webp image is there, but I would have thought it would open automatically open as a webp image.
I have the webp option enabled in cache enabler. ie. box checked that says ” Create an additional cached version for WebP image support. Convert your images to WebP with Optimus.”

Just tried deactivating Real media library by MatthiasWeb, but it didn’t change the outcome

Thanks David,
sent you a message

Hi David, I’m definitely not a wordpress expert, so hopefully I’ve answered the following in a helpful way ??
when I use filezilla, here is the directory structure that leads to my wordpress installation (I’ve substituted “username” for my actual user name here): /home/username/imagesbyvandam.com/wordpress/wp-content

Yes, I can access the wordpress Media/Library screen through the link you provided (I am using the plugin “Real Media Library” to enhance my media library interface.)

The debug tab has “0” messages.

Hi David, I’m getting an actual 404 page.
Message in middle of page is: “404 Page not Found!
Would you like to search for the page”

Yes I am able to reach the settings/media library assistant general tab

Message in browser address bar is:https://www.imagesbyvandam.com/wordpress/wp-admin/upload.php?page=mla-menu

Thanks

Hi David, thanks for the quick reply! In terms of launching, I’m trying to launch the media/assistant admin screen (sorry, you’re right, I wasn’t that clear in my initial post), but it never opens.

ok, I changed my template type and now it is hidden

Got it sorted out
