 * At the advice of Divi theme customer support, I switched from Autoptomize and
   one other optimizer.
 * LiteSpeed seems comparable, except for one thing: even though, best I can tell,
   I’ve followed their tutorial to get my photo’s automatically converted to webp(
   from jpg), it’s not working.
 * I also don’t see where I can manually change any already uploaded jpg’s to webp.
 * Anyone know how to get LiteSpeed to actually:
   1. automatically turn all future
   uploaded jpg’s to webp? And2. manually turn any recently uploaded jpg’s into 
   webp?
 * Thanks!
   Chris

   First, thanks for your time and advice.
 * I’d already checked the boxes for the two cron functions. AND I’d already deactivated
   and thought I uninstalled WPOptimize and Autoptimize, but going back, I saw I
   hadn’t yet uninstalled them. 
   I have uninstalled them, however before I did so,
   I checked my Media Images again in my main/parent page (christopherbabson.com)
   and they all showed up as webp (even though I hadn’t touched anything since last
   checking a few days ago, when I posted this question online).So, while, for some
   unknown reason, webp functions is now working in my main directory, and even 
   though I’ve repeated all the same configuration steps I took in christopherbabson.
   com in my subdirectory courses.christopherbabson.com, AND I logged out and logged
   back into my subdirectory, the images in the subdirectory still remain only jpgs
   and aren’t converted to webp.Can you please think of any other possible reasons
   for webp not working in my subdirectory?
 * Thanks!
   Chris
