I am unable to upload WebP images in WordPress 5.8 Please help. I have installed it from OpenLiteSpeed WordPress Image From Alibaba Cloud

May I know the OLS version? As long as the OpenLiteSpeed version is higher than v1.4.33, you should be able to upload it.
To upgrade OLS, run the following command,

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade -y

You can also check from OpenLiteSpeed Web Admin > Server Configuration > General > MIME Settings, and "image/webp" should be included.

If still not working, please share a screenshot of the failed information.

Oh, it's on the PHP extension. We should have had this package support webp a long time ago. May I know your PHP version? Maybe you can try php74 or php80?
