 * Hi.
 * When using webp as the thumbnail image of a post the plugin does not recognize
   the format. It is left blank when looking at a post. Could this be supported?
 * Thank you:-)

 * What does the plugin display instead? Is the webp image a featured image?
 * What is your site URL where this is displayed.
 * The plugin doesn’t do anything special to select the image type – it just tries
   to pick the featured image first and look for other options like the first image
   in the post.

 * Hi Ajay,
 * the plugin shows only the title instead. The place where the image should be 
   visible is blank instead. Yes, the image is set as feature image.
 * Kind regards.

 * Let me see what I can do in my tests – I’ve yet to adopt the webp format so not
   sure what exactly could be the issue. Will need some debugging to be done for
   this.
 * Two more questions – is this hosted on your site? Does this work if you put the
   link directly in the metabox of the plugin?
 * I can’t promise a timeframe but will definitely look into this.
