Using Adaptive Images

Hi @deeveearr!

Q: I’ve actually tried this plugin before, and all of my images reverted to jpg or png – how do I get them to show as .webp?
A: If by “reverted to jpg” you mean that the images were redirecting to your original images, please take a look at this article: https://help.shortpixel.com/article/148-why-are-my-images-redirected-from-cdn-shortpixel-ai
If, on the other side, the images are served from our CDN but they are still JPG, have a look at this other article, please: https://help.shortpixel.com/article/219-shortpixel-adaptive-images-doesnt-serve-webp-images-why-is-that

Q: I’m using a ‘one time plan’ on ShortPixel, which is easy to work out what you’re paying for. With this version though, it looks like you’re paying for CDN views – are the CDN views IN ADDITION to image credits?
A: With Adaptive Images, you only pay for CDN traffic. Here’s how this exactly works: https://help.shortpixel.com/article/460-spai-new-how-are-the-credits-counted

Q: Finally, what happens to the images that have already been optimised by ShortPixel – do I lose those?
A: No, you don’t lose them. You can actually use both of the plugins if you want. Here’s how you can do that: https://help.shortpixel.com/article/179-shortpixel-adaptive-images-vs-shortpixel-image-optimizer

Q: Finally (2), the main reason that I wanted to try this plugin was for the background images. Does SPAI also optimise background images and convert them into .webp?
A: Yes! In the article above, talking about WebP and SPAI, you can see how to enable WebP for background images.

Have a nice Sunday!

Good morning @deeveearr,

I’m not sure why the CLS went from green to yellow, but you shouldn’t worry too much about these parameters. Here you have more information about this:

• How ShortPixel can improve the Core Web Vitals
• About GTmetrix, PageSpeed Insights and other website speed testers

Have a good one!

Good morning deeveearr,

Can you please activate the plugin and tell us where we can see the issue live?

Thank you!
