 * Hello [@islp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/islp/) ,
 * Thank you for your message and for letting us know about this!
 * While this doesn’t impact uploading SVGZ files in any way, the plugin shows those
   warnings in the logs unless a normal SVG image is uploaded.
 * No worries, I’ve noted this down so we can work on a fix for the next plugin 
   update! In the meantime you can use the plugin as usual! 🙂
 * All the best,
