This is great plugin to save my server space! Dear developer, I prefer to donate by paypal, usdt or stripe instead of inputting my credit card elsewhere.

The plugin works, converts images to webp but also uses the apache PHP LoadFromFile that loads the images from file rather make http request, which means it will change the canonical of the images. Which means your articles and website will disappear from Google search, which will kill the traffic and the website finally. This happened to my website till I traced the solution down to this plugin. You’ll post and it just won’t show on Google search even though all is green on GSC because of this plugin. If you notice your website traffic is dying or your website doesn’t show on Google, try removing this plugin and check your keywords acquisition on ahrefs.

Works great! Just be careful with the “WebP replacement of images and contents” setting. Do you REALLY want to remove all your old JPG files?

It’s a great, simple plugin. Just replaces the JPG/PNG you upload into WEBP instantly. Since last update, Bulk Generate is stuck at 35%. No matter how many times I stop, check, and generate, it gets stuck at 35%.
