 * Hello:
    I’m trying to improve my Hummingbird Performance Test. Under Opportunities(
   2), Hummingbird recommends “serving images in next-gen format”.
 * I did (see [https://monosnap.com/file/GSp0LDOUj4ezAIDw3T0nU2HghewTam](https://monosnap.com/file/GSp0LDOUj4ezAIDw3T0nU2HghewTam)
   and
    [https://monosnap.com/file/1EryXwhUvehGKDfRlk3Efz77WTh0bo](https://monosnap.com/file/1EryXwhUvehGKDfRlk3Efz77WTh0bo)).
   All images were converted to WebP format – Google’s recommended next-gen format.
   But, Hummingbird Test Score didn’t change. Why? What’s happening?
 * Grateful for your advice

 * Hi [@vevanegas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vevanegas/)
 * I hope you are doing good today.
 * What Google reports here is the top-bg.png file, and it does not look like this
   image is compressed to WebP format. You can open your home page or that image
   directly in the browser and in the browser console you will see that image is
   a PNG file. What plugin do you use to convert those images to WebP format?
 * Kind Regards,
    Kris

   Is this the home page image you’re referring to? I’m using plugin EWWW Image 
   optimizer What can I do? Kind regards, Enrique

 * Hi [@vevanegas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vevanegas/)
 * Sorry for the delay here.
 * The reported image is the background image, it is from the theme:
 * [https://monosnap.com/file/JSrGcfxXnSQt61YWYtQ91G8JLhGBCV](https://monosnap.com/file/JSrGcfxXnSQt61YWYtQ91G8JLhGBCV)
 * Usually, the plugins will convert the images located in the Media Library but
   since it is from the theme folder the plugin didn’t convert.
 * A workaround is to download this image, upload it in Media Library and update
   your Theme settings or Page settings to the version uploaded in the Media Library.
 * You can contact the EWWW support to confirm if there is an available option to
   covert the images outside the WordPress library too.
 * Best Regards
    Patrick Freitas
