# Image optimisation doesn’t work

 * I marked [my previous message](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/optimisation-services-are-frozen/)
   as resolved but I’m still having the same issue. This morning when I synced my
   dashboard I can see I have full allowance left, but when I tried to optimize 
   images, I still get the error about requesting too many images. What else do 
   I need to do to make it work?

 * have you enabled some option like Polish or Mirage from CloudFlare that could
   change the images on the fly ?

 * I use Cloudflare but the free plan, therefore I don’t have any additional Image
   Optimization.
 * For content optimization I have Brotli & Early Hints enabled. Rocklet Loader 
   is off.

 * You mean temporarily bypass the cache in my Cloudflare database, or something
   else? As I’ve run out of Litespeed allowance for today I’ll try this tomorrow(
   May 7th) and report back if it works.

 * I was thinking simply set the proxy OFF on CF dashboard , but I guess dev mode
   probably do it as well.

 * Hi – I’ve tried this and it doesn’t make any difference. I still get the error
   about “too many requested images”. Screenshot is here: [https://snipboard.io/xKT5BH.jpg](https://snipboard.io/xKT5BH.jpg)
 * Is there anything else you can suggest?

 * you need to clean up unfinished data first, and then send request.

 * Ok, I’ve tried again. Now I get a new error:
 * Cloud Error: Please try after 3m 5s for service `img_optm-new_req`.
 * However, the status message now reads “Images ready to request: `121 groups (
   611 images)`” which is a big change from before. Here’s the image opt screen:

 * Does it sound as though I can’t use Litespeed cache to optimise images at the
   same time as Cloudflare?

 * send req is easy part, now give it sometime, see if it will pull back optimized
   images

 * It’s working! Thanks very much for your help. Will the process continue working
   if I turn off Cloudflare dev mode? [https://snipboard.io/GUXPsH.jpg](https://snipboard.io/GUXPsH.jpg)
 * Also, I saw a message saying I had no more allowance for the month, and the number
   of images I can request is back to 0. Is that literally the case – I won’t be
   able to optimize any more images in May?

 * ideally , if CF did not modify the image alone the way , it should work with 
   CF in front , otherwise it indicates something in CF changed image, and causes
   the original image md5sum value mismatch to the one our server downloaded
 * no , just wait for next day , it will reset on daily basis

 * Thanks very much for your help. Looks like it’s working now and all my images
   are optimized. Thanks!
