    Hi,

    if you convert the images of the enfold websites to webP format (this happens with all plugins by adding the html picture tag), unfortunately, the horizontal slider no longer works. (Images are no longer resized). Do you have a solution for this?

    Hey Chris_85,
    Thanks for your question, but unfortunately there would not be a reasonable solution from our end to work with this plugin’s option because it replaces the <img> tags with <picture> tags, and thus the theme’s scripts and css in the elements would need to be rewritten, not just the Horizontal Gallery element, but all of the elements that use images.
    Note that the plugin points out that this may break some themes:

    Try using the plugin’s first option which adds rewrite rules to your site’s configuration file instead.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Hi Mike, thanks for your answer!

    Yes, of course, I can understand and I am aware that the changes to the HTML DOM can cause functions to fail. With einfold, however, all elements work except for the horizontal gallery and the accordion gallery with the picture tag. So maybe you can help me with the horizontal gallery and the picture tag?

    The Rewrite Rule option is not working. I dont know why… iam in contact with the plugin support.

    Thanks Chris

    My answer concerning to your other question but also to webp format:
    https://kriesi.at/support/topic/add-lightbox-manually/#post-1355589

    Just use webp – the “can i use page” shows that only the IE11 with less than 0,5% gloabal usage does not support webp.
    In my opinion the usage of a fallback solution is now obsolete. Enfold supports webp usage in all alb elements – no need for a picture construct.

    See slider on : https://enfold.webers-webdesign.de/tooltips/

    Hi,
    Guenni007 thanks for your example page and input, while Enfold does support direct use of webP, Chris_85 is not tring to do this, he wants to use the Imagify plugin that replaces the <img> tags with <picture> tags and then shows webP images, instead of just directly using the webP in the current <img> tags.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    yes Mike – I have already understood that; only what advantage is gained by such an approach? Is the use of the picture tag only needed to offer a fallback solution; or is the picture tag used to offer other image formats in the responsive case?
    So if it is used for these reasons, I think there is no argument for its use with the good distribution of webp support and the use of the srcset option.
    If you need the plugin to have a nice automatic conversion of images to webp format images – ok. – but automatically replacing the img tag with picture tag? For what?

    Often plugins make useful special additions to the basic installation – but not always.
    How many images are needed for a standard WordPress installation? 30-40? If it is not a photographer site or a shop system are already a lot. To convert this number as webp is relatively fast to do. Meanwhile even Photoshop offers the webp format as a possibility – you can make a droplet on your desktop to convert images to webp.

    PS : maybe if we start to use now the avif-format – a picture tag will be a good solution til this will be standard

    >Offtopic:
    Why do I like to ask about the reasoning behind the use of certain plugins?
    f.e.: I have enough customers here who absolutely want to have extensive statistics tools installed. Google Analytics seems to have a magical attraction for users. My inquiries as to who should take over their evaluation and who is also able to draw correct conclusions from it are usually met with ignorance. In 90% of the cases where I installed Google Analytics for customers, the interest in evaluating it independently quickly evaporated, and Google alone drew the benefit from it. Some of the collected data is simply not relevant for website operators.

    Hi,
    Thanks, as I understand the plugin does this as a bulk operation so the user doesn’t need to individually change each image on the site to auto created webP images.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    well – you might want to pay attention to this when creating your demo pages. If you equip the newest demo e.g. directly with webp images.

    #1357275

    Hi,
    Thanks for pointing this out. As for the topic of supporting this plugin, I believe it is beyond the intended scope of our support, I would recommend directly using the webP images instead.

    Best regards,

    I’m afraid I’m going to have to make a little apology. On my more modern Apple devices, of course, a newer Safari is installed. But on my older MacMini runs a Safari of the previous versions. There webp is not supported. So I guess that Iphones up to 8 and older Ipads do not display the images.

    #1357468

    Hi,
    Thanks for sharing this Guenni007, it will be helpful with future questions where the user is using an older device and Safari.

    Best regards,
    Mike
