 * Hello,
 * Love the addition of webP to LiteSpeed Cache but you should be aware that not
   all browsers support it yet: [https://caniuse.com/webp/embed/](https://caniuse.com/webp/embed/)
 * So, I think a fallback to those browsers would be best practice. Not everybody
   know that and most likely won’t understand why there images are missing.

 * Hi, Yoav.
 * Yes, we are aware of this limitation, and a callback to jpg (or png) is exactly
   what is done in those cases.
 * Are you observing something different?

 * Hey Lisa,
 * In a matter of fact, the fallback doesn’t seem to work when browsing on MS Edge:

 * But, otherwise, works without any hiccups.

 * I’m trying to recreate the issue, but it works for my test site on Edge and Firefox.
   Can you share a URL where it is not working?
 * Thanks!

 * When the browser which doesn’t support WebP visits your site, a non-webp cache
   copy should be served as it will have different vary copy.
 * In your .htaccess there should be one rule which adds the vary ‘+webp’. Can you
   check if its there, and share the debug log when you visit via MS Edge? Or give
   more detail so we can have a look.

 * Here is the URL: [https://goo.gl/wgD9c7](https://goo.gl/wgD9c7)
 * I do see the specific line in the .htaccess indeed.

 * That page is strange. Can you create a tix or paste the debug log when you access
   via firefox/safari? Thanks.

 * I mean the page doesn’t have expected footer comment. Can you paste the log as
   I mentioned? Or a ticket.

 * Well, looks like I can reproduce the issue now. Found the bug. It only happens
   for img src, while not for srcset.
 * Will fix in this week’s release. Thanks a lot for the feedback.
