Title: Image Optimization Not Working Last modified: June 11, 2020 --- # Image Optimization Not Working * Resolved [lechon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lechon/) * (@lechon) * [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/) * When upgraded from v2.9 to Version 3.2.2 Image Optimization stopped working. * Under the old version I have already 56,269 images optimized, but none under Version 3.2.2. * I keep getting the Current image limit is: 1, but not even a single image gets process. * I have cleaned up unfinished data and request again but nothing happens and it goes back to Current limit is: 1 * I have read about the topic here: * [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-issue-on-v3/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-issue-on-v3/) * When i was using version 2.9 it took about 2 months for the 56,269 images to get optimized. the recommendation here is to Destroy All Optimization Data to start over (this is recommended). * 1. How long will it take again under the new version 3.2.2 to complete the job? * 2. Do I need to back up the database to do this? * LiteSpeed Report number: PLYUPLYH * Using ListeSpeed Server Enterprise Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 24 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/page/2/?output_format=md) * [LucasRolff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucasrolff/) * (@lucasrolff) * [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/#post-12969508) * v3.x of the plugin uses WordPress’ Rest API (/wp-json/litespeed/v1/notify_img to be specific) to do callbacks. * Your site seems to be blocking this callback: * `{"code":"rest_not_logged_in","message":"You do not have sufficient permission to access this endpoint. Access to REST API requests is restricted.","data":{" status":401}}` * If you have anything that restricts access to the REST API, then you have to allow `/wp-json/litespeed` calls. * Thread Starter [lechon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lechon/) * (@lechon) * [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/#post-12971502) * [@lucasrolff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucasrolff/) * Thanks for the feedback. * For security reasons we have the following code on our site: * //Restricts REST API Access add_filter( ‘rest_authentication_errors’, function( $result ) { if ( ! empty( $result ) ) { return $result; } if ( ! is_user_logged_in()){ return new WP_Error( ‘rest_not_logged_in’, ‘You do not have sufficient permission to access this endpoint. Access to REST API requests is restricted.’, array( ‘ status’ => 401 ) ) * Our site gets viciously attack on a daily basis via REST API. * Under LiteSpeed V 2.9 Restricting API was not at issue at all, including image optimization. * Is there a way to “Whitelist” the REST API calls from LiteSpeed That we can implement in our code shown above? * Giving everyone access to REST API is not a solution for us. * Best regards, * Plugin Support [qtwrk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/qtwrk/) * (@qtwrk) * [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/#post-12973771) * Hi, * Perhaps this [topic](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restrict-rest-api-access-2/) helps ,you can get our IPs [here](https://www.quic.cloud/ips) * Best regards, * Thread Starter [lechon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lechon/) * (@lechon) * [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/#post-12973901) * [@qtwrk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/qtwrk/) * Thanks for the information.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} wp-json RewriteRule .* - [F] ``` * if it requests wp-json and doesn’t come from designated IP , 403s it. * I am sure there are also some plugins or code snippet to get same effect. * Best regards, * Thread Starter [lechon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lechon/) * (@lechon) * [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/#post-12981333) * [@qtwrk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/qtwrk/) * Hello, * We were able to make it work using the format suggested here: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restrict-rest-api-access-2/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restrict-rest-api-access-2/) * But in the process it breaks other plugins that uses REST API in a different way than LiteSpeed does, like for example the plugin “Redirection”, it completely breaks it. * So we are back to square 1. We don’t have image optimization. * We were so happy with version 2.9 of this plugin everything worked from the get go. You would think that with the enterprise version of the LiteSpeed Server that we have these REST API calls could run in the background as a core function, but I guess this is not how it all works. * Best regards, * Plugin Support [qtwrk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/qtwrk/) * (@qtwrk) * [5 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-optimization-not-working-3/#post-12981953) * Hi, * So when you use * ``` //Restricts REST API Access add_filter( ‘rest_authentication_errors’, function( $result ) { if ( ! empty( $result ) ) { return $result; } if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) { return new WP_Error( ‘rest_not_logged_in’, ‘You do not have sufficient permission to access this endpoint.
