 * I’ve been replying via email Are you getting my emails?
    - email: – – – – – – –
    - Please see this portfolio entry. Notice the missing and yellow images. These
      were reimported. But the system is calling on converted webpage files still
      even thought the plug-in is TURNED OFF. 
    - Click on the images here:

    - Please advise exactly how to put my site structure back to what it was prior
      to “trying out “ this Smush plugin. 
 * email 2: – – – – – – – – – – – –
 * Smush was taking forever to compress images as far as I could tell. It would 
   quit and I had to restart like 5 times. Apparently it never finished. Unbeknownst
   to me it was deleting years and years of folders of images. All we are left with
   is a partial 2015 and a partial 2024 folder. I am asking you, where are the images
   now? What folder? I do not have a back up because too much time has passed and
   the site hosting company is on a time limit of 14 days backup. If I turn this
   plugin back in, will there be further damage? 
 * email 3- – – – – – – –
 * This is what the theme developers are saying;
 * Do you use any plugin that transforms your jpg to webp – and then uses these 
   webp instead.?
   see :
 * supposedly it is a jpg according to the file extension – in fact it is a webp.
   The conversion may be the reason for the color shift.
 * email 4- – – – – – –
 * I have not tried to “recover “ the original images. I turned OFF the Plugin.
   
   The current live folder is missing all uploads from 2010 to 2024 except for 2
   folders (2017 and 2024, and there are images missing from inside these)
 * The previous version of the sirte prior to your plugin looks like this. See all
   of the folders?
 * Where did your plugin put the original images? I cant find them anywhere, yet
   the servier is serving the old images. Some are JPG some files are served as 
   webp images, WTF!
 * I’m afraid to turn this back on until i hear from you and time is of the essence
   since the site hosting company is deleting my site backups on a daily basis. 
   We have lost 2 days now.
 * Tell me how to restore these original files. I need exact steps immediately.
 * This is a disaster.

 * As well, I turned this plugin off to stop the bleeding. I do not know about the“
   backup” option being enabled. Wouldn’t that be a default setting? We have all
   image uploads from 2015 to 2024 missing. Were the did it go?

 * We are having a disaster related I believe to SMUSH plugin. The file directory
   of uploads has been stripped of most of the 15 years of development. Where do
   the files go? As well currently images are being created with a yellow tint. 
   And the wp theme is behaving oddly in that it is displaying images that say.jpg
   but are in fact webp files. I presume this is a smush issue since the only other
   plugin running is W3 total casche.

 * Thank you James! I have my work cut out for me tomorrow.
 * What do you mean by “Block Themes”? Do you mean Gutenberg styled Themes?
 * I have never seen a WP theme similar to my masonry portfolio theme. Is there 
   something like this now? I dont see one 🙂

 * The missing Style icon set appears after I switch to WP 2024 Theme.
 * I turned off all the PlugIns and then turned them back on. It is most likely 
   the theme itself over riding the Gutenberg system. This “CRUSH” theme was designed
   before Gutenberg was introduced and now the developer is MIA.
 * I have years of work into this site and dont feel like starting over because 
   of some gutter spacing.
 * Is there any way to inject some code into this LOGOS page so as to only affect
   the padding around these static images?
 * thanks for all of your help! here are some screen shots…

 * Where are you pulling the Category / Taxonomy Settings from? Are you tasking 
   these from only “Posts”? what if I need to create a “Page” whereby the title 
   of the page is linked to a menu item where the gallery will show up? Also we 
   use Portfolio and rarely use Posts. And your taxonomy terms are being pilled 
   from Posts. ;-/

 * I may need to find a plugin to deal with this padding problem. I reloaded WP 
   6.6.1, No change.
 * The WP Theme perhaps is over-riding the update. I wouldn’t know where to sort
   that out.
