About WP Enable WebP

This WordPress Plugin allows you to upload WebP images to your media library and adds a class to the body tag for CSS selectors, making it easier to set background images. It also includes a helpful function to check if the browser supports WebP images, allowing you to display them conditionally in your template files.
