I see no reason the shouldn’t and it probably confuses the plugin. Is this the correction you mentioned that you made in your last comment? * ``` WP Site url http://lfprepairs.co.za WP WP Home url http://www.lfprepairs.co.za ``` * Besides that I see the message that says * `The .htaccess file is not writeable so it might have not been updated.` * Do you know why this is? Usually the htaccess file needs to be writable, so that it can be automatically updated. If this is not possible, then one might add the necessary code bit to it manually. * Lastly, I did make one last to your website and it seems that the Adaptive Imags plugin si working as expected now and your images are being resized ([http://prntscr.com/kfx7xa/](http://prntscr.com/kfx7xa/), [http://prntscr.com/kfx8gk/](http://prntscr.com/kfx8gk/)). * Cheers, Takis - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by [Takis Bouyouris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nevma/). - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by [Takis Bouyouris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nevma/).
