Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about AttiaWebP – Safe WebP Replace & Optimizer
No. By default, the plugin creates WebP copies and leaves JPEG/PNG originals untouched.
Yes, but only through advanced options. Permanent replacement is disabled by default and requires a confirmation checkbox plus the exact text DELETE ORIGINALS before bulk replacement can run.
AVIF is a newer image format that is usually smaller than WebP at similar visual quality. If the settings screen shows AVIF support, you can enable AVIF sidecars so the server can deliver AVIF to browsers that accept it, WebP to older browsers, and the original file to everything else. AVIF encoding is slower than WebP, so background mode is recommended for large libraries.
Your server cannot encode AVIF. AVIF generally requires WordPress 6.5+ together with GD on PHP 8.1+ or an Imagick build with AVIF support. Ask your host about enabling it.
It is the WebP compression quality value. Lower values create smaller files with more visible compression. Higher values preserve more detail but create larger files. The default value of 82 is a balanced starting point. AVIF uses its own quality setting with a default of 60, which is roughly comparable visually.
No. Conversion uses the image editor available on the WordPress server, such as GD or Imagick.
The server must support WebP through GD or Imagick. The settings screen shows a basic support check for both WebP and AVIF.
Background mode schedules small conversion batches through WP-Cron, so conversion continues on the server even after you close the settings page. The settings screen shows live progress and a stop button. Note that WP-Cron depends on site traffic unless a real cron job is configured.
The built-in toggle manages an uploads .htaccess block, which is for Apache/LiteSpeed environments. For Nginx, the settings screen now includes an example server-block snippet you can copy into your Nginx configuration manually.
No. Server delivery does not rewrite product HTML, image src attributes, srcset values, content, widgets, or custom CSS. It only lets the server return a matching WebP/AVIF file for JPEG/PNG requests when the browser supports the format and a matching sidecar file exists.
