[Smush Pro] keeps saying 731 image need re-smushing, after bulk smushing.

Smush Pro keeps telling me I have 731 images that need re-smushing. I’ve bulk smushed them 5 times now, but everytime I go back to the page or re-check images, it returns to 731 again.

    Hi Cyril

    I hope you’re well today and thank you for your question!

    I checked your site and it seems that the issue here is Jetpack performance optimization along with quite an aggressive caching on site.

    Basically, the Jetpacks “Speed up static file load times” option “offloads” images to wordpress.com CDN and together with WP Rocket cache it “breaks” the way Smush works.

    Please give this a try:

    1) Go to “Jetpack -> Settings -> Performance” and temporarily disable the “Speed up static file load times” option there
    2) Clean cache and Purge OPCache in WP Rocket
    3) Go to “Smush” and run bulk smushing, let it finish

    At this point you should see that “731 images need re-smusing” gone. I tested it and it shows me currently that there’s 705 images which is matching up with 26 images processed until I stopped smushing.

    4) after that you can enable back Jetpacks “Speed up static file load times” but also clear cache and purge OpCache again after enabling it.

    Let me know if that solves the issue.

    Best regards,
    Adam
