 * Hi,
    is there a way to disable the automatic optimization when a new image is
   uploaded?
 * I have enabled the option “convert existing images to WEBP…”
    With I now upload
   a new image, only the WEBP version is added to the media. But no jpg is uploaded…
 * If someone visits the website with a browser there will be no image displayed.
 * The only thing that comes to my mind:
    Before image upload the plugin will be
   disabled. If I do the optimization after that, I have both: jpg. and webp.
 * Is there a “smarter” way to to this?
 * Cheers
    Ralf

 * Seems that it was only one image that was uploaded as a webp.
    all other images
   are uploaded as it should be
