In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Plugin dont workingHello, my friend,
Our plugin is normally compatible with WP Super Cache. And your settings seem all correct!
Right now it seems that it is not enabled in your website. Is that right? Is it possible that you enabled it for me, so that I can make some debugging tests on your images?
Cheers,

In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Vector-based PNG ImagesHello, there,
Well, I think that the rewrite rule that they mention is already created automatically by our plugin. So, this is most probably already taken care of.
So, what you need to do now is enable the CDN support option in the plugin settings page, because NginX in your setup actually works like a small CDN, it works as a caching server. However, let me remind you what I already mentioned in my previous message about this option:
Unfortunately, this is a setup that we can only support in an experimental way, because of the way caching servers and CDNs work. Experimental doesn’t mean that anything will break, but it does mean that a) some images might be delivered in their original size even in smaller screen and b) images in CSS backgrounds are not detected and they are delivered in their original sizes, as well.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,

In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Hardening WordPress Breaks this pluginHello, @lenashore,
Thank you for sharing this with us!
We had indeed predicted the rename of the
/wp-contentand and the/wp-content/uploadsdirectories, but not the plugins directory. We will try to incorporate this in our future versions!Cheers,

In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Hardening WordPress Breaks this pluginHello, @lenashore,
Thank you for the heads-up. We will try to take into account the renaming of the plugins folder better in the future. Just for the record, could you please tell us exactly what technique you have used in order to develop the plugins folder rename?

In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Vector-based PNG ImagesHello, my friend,
By the looks of it, it seems that you are probably using Apache as your main server and NginX as a caching server. This is why you do not see any NginX configuration files. However, I would like you to confirm this for me with your host, as a first step. Can you do this please?
If this is your case, then you do not have to do anything, you are already good to go as far as the initial setup is concerned. However this kind of setup (which resembles a small CDN, actually) requires that you enable the CDN support option in the plugin settings page. Unfortunately, this is a setup that we can only support in an experimental way, because of the way caching servers and CDNs work. Experimental doesn’t mean that anything will break, but it does mean that a) some images might be delivered in their original size even in smaller screen and b) images in CSS backgrounds are not detected and they are delivered in their original sizes, as well.
Let me know how it goes!

In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Nginx error with code givenHello, my friend,
Thank you for reaching out to us!
From the error message, it seems that they have entered a duplicate “/” location in the NginX configuration file. This means that they need to adapt the code given by the Adaptive Images plugin, so that it is correctly incorporated in your current NginX configuration.
So, it is not a matter of compatibility but a matter of correct adaptation of the code. And, to be honest, only the admin fo the server should know how to do it best in each setup. Unfortunately this is how NginX works.
If perhaps you could share with us your NginX configuration file we might be able to provide some more advice. But, even then, it is your admin who should know best.
Let us know how it goes.
Cheers,

In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Vector-based PNG ImagesIt is always a good idea to experiment and the Adaptive Images cache is something you can easily erase and reset with new image sizes. We generally advice against using too many image size, but you will eventually know what suits your use-case best.
Now, I noticed that your images are being served with NginX mentioned in the server header, so I would like to point out that, for this setup to work properly, you need to add a special bit of code to your NginX configuration file. You will find that bit of code in the message after you save the Adaptive Images plugin settings. You might need some help from your server admin there!

In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Plugin Not WorkingHello, my friend,
I see that your images are delivered reporting NginX as the server. If you are using NginX as your main application server then you need to manually add (and perhaps modify) the bit of code that the Adaptive Images plugin instructs you when you save its settings. You might need some help from your server admin/host in order to do this correctly. Unfortunately, this is how NginX works!
Let me know how it goes and if I can help any further.

In reply to: [Adaptive Images for WordPress] Vector-based PNG ImagesHello, @mafreprezent,
Well, you actually cannot know what is going to happen to PNGs at such a detailed level unless you try it out. I made a test page here for you http://aidev.nevma.gr/uncategorized/test-alpin-io/ with some of your images. The results are not bad at all. However, your smaller images are already quite small themselves and they are not really affected -if at all- by the Adaptive Images plugin. However, images like https://alpin.io/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/mountain-header5.png are more important candidates for testing.
Let me know what you think!
Cheers,
TakisAlso, the actual NginX error you get is that you are using the “location” directive twice, which probably means that you are already using it somewhere else already. So, if you need to put our code into it, you should try and find that original place first. Unfortunately, I cannot help much with that, this will require the help of your host or server administrator.
