 * [@anige21](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anige21/) If your server is capable
   of redirects (apache redirect) it is done automatically, you don’t have to modify
   anything.
 * If not, lack of `mod_rewrite` or NGINX server, etc, WP Optimize will use `alter
   html` method to serve WebP images, if possible.
 * If both fails, redirect and alter html, then original images are served.
