Hello,
sorry, but I’m confused, you’ve just mentioned so many things, that have nothing to do with this plugin 😀
Based on the URL you’ve provided I can tell that plugin is working, so what exactly is the problem?
Here you can see that your new JPG image is loaded as avif successfully:
https://img.kubiq.sk/2026-01-29_23-15-04.png
so comparing to original image this has 65kb instead of 75kb and that’s ~13% less…

You can convert old images and you will save a lot of data / traffic, and smaller files mean faster loading – that’s the point… many times it’s 50% or more, depends on the size and quality of the original image 😉
Thank you. I mentioned so many things maybe to help ? (Sorry it did not help, my fault) When i ran the plugin it just kept saying 0 converted, it did that for everything. then i got an email from wordfence saying 43 files found.
High Severity Problems:
* Unknown file in WordPress core: wp-admin/images/about-texture.png.webp
So because of the email I knew something had changed but but was not sure if it was good or bad ?
Thank you for replying

0 converted means that this folder doesn’t contain images OR images were converted and the final file size was bigger than original image, so they were instantly deleted – that’s something you can affect by changing output quality and mostly 75-80% is same as original, so depends how much perfect quality photos you need then you can reduce it more…
About Wordfence – yes, you mostly want to convert only images in uploads folder, sometimes in themes and rarely in plugins, but almost never in wp-admin or wp-includes folders, but this option is open as there are crazy setups and configurations where images are outside of wp-content folder… but yes, you didn’t break anything, it’s ok, but you can also let Wordfence to delete these images outside of wp-content folder, as it has no effect on frontend web speed
Thank you for your help, much appreciated. Regards John.
