    Hello, I just installed the Plugin on my site and I tried to run the Conversion and I am getting an error:

    An error occurred while connecting to REST API. Please try again.

    How can I fix this?

    Thanks.

    Hi @cboychuk,

    Thank you for your message.

    Please enable WP_DEBUG_LOG in your wp-config.php (more about debugging: https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG). That’s what you should have in this file:

    define('WP_DEBUG',         true);
    define('WP_DEBUG_LOG',     true);
    define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);

    Do you have any errors in debug.log?

    Before you click "Regenerate All" turn on DevTools in your browser and go to the Network tab. Tell me how you got the last answer from the server (make a screenshot like on the example below):

    How many percent of progress is when you received an error?

    Hello, I added the code to wp-config.php but I am still getting the REST API error when trying to regenerate all.

    I am using Firefox. How can I enable Devtools in Firefox?

    I got rid of Google access all together. I no longer support Google and their Stealing by Uploading of files and data. I use Duckduckgo. Ublock Origin is a great addon.

    Thank you.

    Hi @cboychuk,

    1. Go to the administration panel to the Settings -> WebP Converter tab.
    2. Run the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + E.
    3. In the console, select the XHR value (in the top bar with filters).
    4. Press the “Regenerate All” button on the plugin page.
    5. Wait for the problem to occur.
    6. Make a screen shot so that you can see the generation progress bar and the console.

    If you have enabled WP_DEBUG and WP_DEBUG_LOG, check the debug.log file in the /wp-content/ directory. Send its contents after a problem with the REST API.

    Hi, I’m also getting this error.

    I get the error message after clicking “regenerate all” and waiting a few minutes.

    I have enabled debugging and a log. Here is what I got, but only after clicking around a bit to find stuff (nothing seems related to this issue):

    Screenshot of the Chrome Console: https://cloudup.com/cUBtFK6u_Ec

    Apparently hitting a 502 error?

    Text of the Console messages after getting the error message from your plugin:

    JQMIGRATE: Migrate is installed, version 1.4.1
    load-scripts.php?c=0&load[chunk_0]=jquery-core,jquery-migrate,jquery-ui-core,utils,underscore,wp-util&ver=5.3.2:8 
    
    Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 502 ()
    paths:1 

    This is a development site on WP Engine, designed to mimic ‘live’ sites (i.e. not their legacy staging sites).

    Plugins, themes and WP are all up to date.

    I do have an optimization plugin installed, but I checked to ensure REST API is not turned off.

    See screenshots to show they are not turning off REST API:
    https://cloudup.com/chz1Tb25QJY (WP Disable)
    https://cloudup.com/cL5AwsRi9eM (Asset Clean Up)

    Can you help? This seems like a promising plugin (I looked… most others have some very very bad and scary reviews, which deterred me, until I found this one). Anyway, I’m really hoping it can work!

    @ciriman, please read the FAQ and then contact me. I don’t have enough information at the moment to help you.

    Hello Mateusz!

    @mateuszgbiorczyk, that issue occured also for me on new WP instance (worth to mention that I am running another WP on the same server in different installation directory and Webp Converter works like a charm there).

    0%
    An error occurred while connecting to REST API. Please try again.

    1. Webp Converter was the first and only plugin installed.
    2. I have enabled debugging in WP.
    3. I attach DevConsole screenshots below.

    @onio666, thank you for your message. It just looks like a problem with the REST API not working. I assume that it is some other plugin or your code modifies the REST API operation.

    I can see that your url to REST API is:
    /joboffsers/index.pp?rest_route=/webp-converter/v1/paths.

    The default address is the one used in WordPress:
    /wp-json/webp-converter/v1/paths

    The plugin gets the url as follows:

    $nonce = wp_create_nonce('wp_rest');
    $url   = get_rest_url(null, 'webp-converter/v1/paths?_wpnonce=' . $nonce);
    return $url;

    Please check it and let us know if the problem was solved?

    Hey folks I had the same issue and I just did clear the browser cookies and cache and it is work for me

    Hey,

    maybe I’m late but in my case I had WP_DEBUG to true in wp-config.php
    That was causing a php warning to every page and to every response to the rest api.
    I set the WP_DEBUG to false, it worked
