Hi, here’s the link to the mentioned plugin
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-youtube-lyte/
and file path of an example cached youtube image for which Pagespeed complains..
Example 1 :
https://www.institutocalma.org/wp-content/plugins/wp-youtube-lyte/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FaDWg9GDsaDE%2Fmaxresdefault.jpg
Example 2:

Hi @snippet24,

Thanks for your message.

The forum is about plugin support, not PageSpeed Insight issues. See the plugin FAQ for details on how a plugin works.

But the thumbnail image is stored locally on the theme…

@snippet24 If you want help, ask how I can understand it.

Okey I explain, the plugin called “WP Youtube Lyte” has an option to store the images of each embed youtube video locally on the theme.

And these images don’t have their webp versions

@snippet24 Have you read how the plugin works? Converts images that are in the directories /uploads, /themes, and /plugins.

Are the images generated by this plugin in any of these directories? No, because they are dynamically generated by the plugin.

But these images are stored inside the plugin directory

@snippet24 .php file is loaded that dynamically generates the image and returns it as a response. The image file is not physically located on your server, but on YouTube servers.

Not true, if you enable the cached locally option:

@snippet24 In the HTML you load the .php file, not the image file, and that matters most. It will not work.

What if .php es part of the name of the image? Also I asked about this to the “WP Youtube Lyte” dev:

If removing the “LyteCache.php” part of the image filename should work fine then?

@snippet24 That plugin is not compatible with WebP Converter for Media. Returns images as their original formats.

Ohh and is there something I could ask to that plugin developer so that it becomes compatible?

@snippet24 I do not know. I created a plugin for converting images to WebP, which works as described in the plugin FAQ.

I cannot support all other plugins like this one for YouTube.

But can you tell me at least why is not working with “WP Youtube Lyte” so that “WP Youtube Lyte” developer can make it compatible? perhaps is a matter of changing/removing the “.php” part?
