As usual, it was a perfect and easy-to-understand tutorial. Do you have a video that shows how to change the WP default photo-caption text size? Keep up the great work.

[@wplearninglab]

Thanks David! I don't have a video for changing the WP default photo-caption text size. It may be a setting in your theme that you can change. If you go to Appearance > Customizer (if your theme supports Customizer) there may be options for changing the photo-caption text size. If there isn't, can do it by adding a little CSS to your WordPress stylesheet. Try to customizer first, if that doesn't work circle back and we can talk about CSS solutions.

A very helpful video. It reduced the size of all photos nicely. What needs to be done so that WordPress starts displaying WEBP images on the website instead of JPG images?

[@wplearninglab]

Sorry for the long delay! There is an option called "WebP Delivery Method", make sure it's selected in the settings and then WebP images will be served instead of JPG

[@RoopamMusic]

Nice tutorials ❤❤❤

[@wplearninglab]

Thanks and thanks for watching!

[@bocamaiden]

Excellent video! Now what you didn't explain or perhaps I didn't understand is how do I place the images that are in jpg or png format (and that have already been optimized by the plugin) in webp format on my website. That is, they continue to appear in png or jpg format when in reality what I want is for them to be on my website in webp format. How do I choose the webp format? Sorry, if my question is very obvious but I don't see it clearly.

[@bocamaiden]

Sorry, it was my fault. The answer is that I forgot to use the "WebP Delivery Method" option. I did that and then when I reloaded the page the webp images were there. Thank you very much and sorry again for my mistake. Greetings from Argentina! :D

[@wplearninglab]

No problemo! I'm happy you were able to fix that problem :)

I have a bunch of unused images on my media library. Do they affect my sitespeed if they're not used. Or should I delete them?

[@wplearninglab]

They won't affect your site speed, but they will take up space on your hosting account. And most hosting account plans have space limits, so keep your site lean is usually the best way to go. I hope that helps :) Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!

[@Leniaytr]

Hello, I have a question. I have my own clothing store website and my products come as dropshipping xml files. I can edit the images on my site with this plugin. Does it cause problems with constantly updated products?

[@wplearninglab]

Good question. Constantly updating products shouldn't cause a problem. Shortpixel will optimize any image that is added to your WordPress media library (as long as you enough optimization credits available). I hope that helps :) Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!

i want to give fetchpriority="high" to LOGO. How can I do that?

[@wplearninglab]

Good question! There are a couple ways you could go about doing this. If the theme you're using has an ID or a unique class for the logo, then you can add javascript to the functions file that adds the fetchpriority="high" tag to the img element in your theme's HTML. This may be the only way to do it if you use Elementor to create the header location where you logo is. Unless...you could use an HTML widget in the Elementor header and add the logo using the HTML img tag. Then add fetchpriority="high" to the tag. If you're logo and header are created by your theme and you can edit them through the Customizer, then you could still use the Javascript method. But you could also create a child theme, copy the header.php file into your child theme folder and hard code fetchpriority="high" into the logo image tag in the header.php file in the child theme. I think that would run even faster than the Javascript method because there are few steps. I'm sure there are other things you can try, but those are some I thought of off the top of my head. Are you doing this to improve your LCP score?

[@MelindaV08]

@@wplearninglab Yes i am doing this to improve LCP & FCP score. Cuz Jnews theme giving fetchpriority="high" for hero image.... This is too old and doesn't work. They don't following Google updates...
