 * Hi,
 * I optimized my medias manually few days ago, now when I come back to see my medias
   the “Optimize” button is back, does it mean I lost all my optimized images?
 * How so? How to check?
 * Thank you,

 * Hi [@thibotus01](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thibotus01/)
 * This is Ioanna from Imagify and I’ll gladly assist you here!
 * I am sorry to hear that.
 * Did you make any changes in the meantime?
 * Your optimized images should be on your server on the location wp-content/uploads.
 * Can you please try to activate [our Imagify Tools](https://www.dropbox.com/s/2vfbzndtr2ev1tv/imagify-tools-1.1.2.zip?dl=0)
   helper plugin and send us a screenshot of the Imagify Tools > Info page?
 * Best regards,
    Ioanna

 * Hi,
 * I didn’t make any change.
 * I can see .webp versions in /uploads/2021/08
    Also please be specific on where
   to look to identify Imagify optimized pictures.
 * I installed the tool but the page is very long I can’t take on single screenshot.
   
   Also it contains private informations such my domain name.
 * Please advise on what do you want to see.

 * Hi [@thibotus01](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thibotus01/)
 * Thanks a lot for your patience!
 * Can yoy tell me if the issue is still happening?
 * What you can do to compare images and see if there is optimized version delivered
   to your site:
 * – connect to SFTP or File Manager under your cPanel (if you have it)
    – check
   a specific image in `wp-content/uploads/` folder, for example `wp-content/uploads/
   2021/08/image.jpg` and check what’s its’ size – then check if backup of this 
   image exists in `wp-content/uploads/backup/2021/08/image.jpg` – if so, is the
   size of this one larger than the first one?
 * If this is the case, and you still see “Optimize” button in Media Library for
   that image, there is a problem with database entry for the image. This is something
   we would have to investigate further.
 * If there is no image in backup folder, can you try to optimize it again and let
   me know if it will appear?
 * Best Regards
    Marko
