Topic: Admins: Only GIF, JPEG and PNG files are allowed. Can we please allow WebP?
Anonymous A started this discussion 15 years ago #5,013 WebP
Chrome, Firefox, and Opera all support it.
Should be easy to whitelist a file extension.(Edited 3 minutes later.)

If you provide us with a way to thumbnail that in PHP (Actually reduce image size & file size, and preferably save the thumb as png), sure.

Just allow the extension? It's just like any other image, it's just a new file type. Treat it like any other image on the site, no special PHP needed I think.

lolno, needs to be parsed & thumbnailed (Actually have its size reduced) to save bandwidth and loading speed on threads.
Anonymous A (OP) replied with this 15 years ago , 1 hour later, 18 hours after the original post[^] [v] #89,009 @previous (r04r )
And the function that parses, and changes the size of images doesn't work with WebP?
Anonymous A (OP) double-posted this 15 years ago , 3 minutes later, 19 hours after the original post[^] [v] #89,010 If you care about saving bandwidth, implement this and use the .jpg to WebP converter to convert all the images on the site!
Then you would save a lot of bandwidth!

imagemagick does work with Webp, but it requires some experimental add-on iirc.
But pretty much no, it wouldn't work without a whole lot of expended effort, and seeing as there are no benefits really, why bother?
Anonymous A (OP) replied with this 15 years ago , 18 minutes later, 19 hours after the original post[^] [v] #89,024 @previous (brie !OudrPWaUDQ)
It does have benefits, on average images are 39.8% smaller than .jpg's.

Weird. I just tried it myself and got the same problem. Maybe it's a bug, but I've heard FF supports it. Maybe they
plan to.
Chrome and Opera work fine tho, both tested.

From site:
> WebP is supported by a variety of tools. In addition, it is now natively supported in Google Chrome, the Google Chrome Frame plug-in for Internet Explorer and Opera 11.10.
No Firefox apparently.
And this confirms:

No. Its specific to the filetype (gif, png, jpg) and the code provided on their site isnt PHP.
Come back in year when its more standard.

Would you want to use interpreted code for that anyway?

Not really, no:P
Seeing as only one browser supports this, the verdict is: lolno

Chrome and Opera support it fine.
When Firefox gets its shit together that'll be three.

Good job not reading. The new moderator positions can't access profiles (Posting history) or IP information.
