System Status explains what the current server can do.
Checks
| Check | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| PHP version | Confirms the runtime meets plugin requirements. |
| WordPress version | Confirms the site meets declared compatibility. |
| GD | Provides fallback image processing. |
| Imagick | Preferred image processing when formats are available. |
| WebP read/write | Required for WebP source optimization and output. |
| AVIF read/write | Required for optional AVIF output. |
| Uploads writable | Required to write generated files. |
| Backup directory writable | Required for restore-safe operation. |
| Queue table | Required for bulk optimization. |
| Memory and execution time | Helps diagnose large-image failures. |
How to respond
If WebP is unavailable, ask the host to enable Imagick WEBP or GD WebP functions. If AVIF is unavailable, leave AVIF disabled. If uploads or backups are not writable, fix file permissions before processing media.
