elabx Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Hi! Has anyone tried this in their servers? If so, what's your experience with it? I am particularly interested in the auto webp conversion/ https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/module/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacmaes Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I did a couple of years ago. It worked fine with three caveats: by default it caches all the pages and files it rewrites, so you have to be mindful of not running out of disk space. I'm not really comfortable letting an automated tool rewrite so much markup. I like to control the output. you can spend a lot of time tweaking and testing all the settings if you're not opting for the default ones. One particular problem I ran into is to exclude image rewrites from the admin. I believe it's possible to exclude directories, but I could not get it to work and it caused all sorts of unforeseen issues, such as images in Ckeditor fields. In the end, I removed it because it was not worth the hassle. I had already implemented on my own all the major optimizations it proposed to do automatically. Like you, I was mostly interested in the WebP conversion anyway. In case you're not aware, @horst is working on implementing WebP in PW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elabx Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 @jacmaes Thanks a lot for your answer! I was very excited about this, but then started to think of all the possible caveats and just decided to take it slower and ask here for experiences with it. I am also eagerly awaiting @horst 's module, think I'll just rather wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
