What this solution does

The WebP image converter module automatically transforms JPG and PNG images into WebP format directly during page load. The solution requires no complex setup and begins working immediately after activation.

Conversion is performed dynamically for images, including those specified via background or background-image attributes in the HTML code. Lazyload support is available with the ability to define a custom list of attributes for image links. The module operates in composite mode and correctly handles external CDNs, such as Selectel.

For browsers that do not support the WebP format, original images are returned. The module can be disabled for specific domains, sections, or pages. Support for the srcset attribute is implemented.

The WebP format was developed specifically for web resources and provides reduced file weight compared to alternatives.

Format .jpg: 117 KB

Format .webp: 48 KB

Using modern image formats like WebP accelerates website loading and positively impacts search engine rankings. The Google PageSpeed Insights tool frequently recommends the improvement 'Use modern image formats' when scanning a site.

The need to implement modern image formats on your website can be assessed using the Google PageSpeed Insights tool.

To accelerate site loading, the LazyLoad PRO module is also available, providing one-click deferred loading for images, videos, and iframes. It is fully compatible with the Webp module for real-time conversion of images to modern formats.

To address the issue of resources blocking rendering, a separate module called Resource Preloader is available.

To optimize the size of HTML, JavaScript, and CSS code, use the HTML/JS/CSS Minification module.

General iT can connect “Webp - Image converter to the modern format 'on the fly'”, configure it and verify the integration with the existing website.
