 * Hello, Thomas,
 * Thank you for your reply! The error message you mention does not ring a bell,
   but I cannot be certain. Is it possible to consult your server hosting admin 
   on the issue and ask if perhaps Fail2ban blocks internal htaccess PHP rewrites/
   redirects? There’s a small chance this is the case.
 * Also, could they disable Fail2ban temporarily and then check the same url, just
   to make sure if we are looking in the correct direction?
 * Lastly, let’s make sure that [WP_DEBUG](https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/debug/debug-wordpress/)
   is enabled in your wp-config.php file!
 * Cheers,
   Takis

 * Thank you for taking the time to analyze this [@alx359](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alx359/)!
   One thing our plugin does not do, and it does not do it by design, is interfere
   in the way the core is handling its thumbnails. This means it will not create
   more thumbnail sizes nor will it prevent thumbnail sizes from being produced.
   And this was a design decision straight from the start because we wanted it to
   function totally transparently.
 * Of course it does create its own thumbnails but these live in its cache and are
   only created if and when they are requested by devices with relevant screen sizes
   and based on the breakpoints set in its settings. This way we achieve a lot of
   performance gains because we don’t want to use PHP and CPU for image manipulation
   and delivery all the time. We want to keep this at a minimal and only when it
   serves the basic purpose of the plugin, which is to serve as small, but not too
   small, images based on each device’s dimensions and do this as quickly as possible.
 * Also we have still only experimentally solved the issue of bypassing the cache
   of CDNs and making it work to our advantage. There is a special option in the
   plugin settings page for this.
 * Not sure if I answered your question. However taking the plugin to another direction
   is not in our plans at the moment. I’d be happy to discuss anything that might
   seem interesting or challenging though!

 * Hello, my friend, thank you for reaching out!
 * If I understand what you are saying correctly, the Adaptive Images plugin cannot
   serve exactly this purpose and it doesn’t have any setting or filter to facilitate
   this. I am not sure what the benefit of this might be, to be honest. Perhaps 
   you could elaborate a bit more?
