Upload the WebP file to your server. Open the wp-content/uploads/ folder and locate the WebP file. Upload the WebP file to the wp-content/plugins/ folder. Activate the plugin in the WordPress admin panel.

To embed the WebP in a post or page, add the following code to the post or page: get_name());?>” alt=”get_alt();?>” /> .
