Been monkeying around with it, and so far I can kind of make it work, but it requires breaking some safety checks that ShortPixel has in place. Specifically I can force it so ShortPixel is tricked into thinking the files exist, but it uses that to do other things. For example, it uses the same...

In this case, you can set a specific execution order number for WordPress filters. In *theory* things should be designed so multiple plugins using the same WordPress hook aren't affected by execution order. In practice it's definitely problematic because you have no way of controlling another...

Haven't installed it yet, but already skimming their code to see if anything obvious pops out at me. As I mentioned already, it does strike me as odd that they would be not using the mechanism that WordPress gives you to manage image variations because it's literally what it's there for (and in...

Would need to go digging on ShortPixel's code to say for certain on anything... While it's not out of the question, if they are bypassing WordPress functionality (like not using WordPress's normal system for tracking media variations), not sure it could really be done. Again, would need to go...

Well, the easiest thing to do would be to buy a single license and just do all the testing. The only thing I could think of is if you had a third-party plugin that was doing things with WordPress media in an incorrect way. If it doesn’t work for your setup, a full refund is simple on our end...

There really isn’t a trial mechanism internally. Is there something specific you are looking to check? A demo setup might be more practical.

No, sorry... we don't get into users sites. Hmmm... it looks like the system let you purchase an annual extension, but there was no valid license to begin with. It's been fixed on our end to not allow that. I'll go ahead and refund it.

I promise you those two filters are in the plugin. There are cases where the filters won't change the URL, but that has to do with the system not thinking the image itself is in R2... either R2 isn't enabled or the meta data for the image says it's not in R2. Can't tell you which logic is...

It’s not going to work if your theme doesn’t support those filters. Those filters are already enabled in the plugin, so the issue isn’t the filters aren’t set, rather your theme isn’t using them. Again, the code is already there using those filters… so you are just replicating what’s already...

Sure

Probably makes the most sense to report it to them. Not about adding support for this plugin exactly, but for them to support the normal WordPress filter I linked to above. That’s the “proper” way for anything to handle image URLs.

Are the images considered Media within WordPress? On the presentation side, if they are being presented by a third-party plugin or theme, it would need to make sure to use the standard WordPress hook for generating attachment URLs. It's the wp_get_attachment_url filter that does the backend...

Sure, I’ll check the URL if you want to send it (and credentials) privately.

Do you have an example URL of one of the images not working with the mime type rule enabled by chance?

There isn’t something currently, but it also wouldn’t be too hard to add. What kind of files are you having issues with exactly?
