This WordPress Plugin for WebP image uploads enabled WebP image uploads into the media library.
It will also add a class to the body tag for CSS selectors. This is helpful for setting background images.
Example:
selector {
background: url(‘images/example.jpg’);
}
body.supports-webp #selector {
background: url(‘images/example.webp’);
}
Use the function webpSupported() in template files to conditionally show WebP images.
Example:
if (webpSupported()) :
WebP image here
else:
Image with other fallback format here
endif;
Major features in WP Enable WebP include:
- Enabling WebP Image uploads into the media library.
- Browser detection that adds a class to the body tag indicating WebP is supported by the browser.
- Helper function to use in theme template files to check if the browser supports WebP image format.
