    Hi Jan,
    Thank you for the question.

    Please visit Dashboard->MediaPress->settings->General and add ‘webp’ in the supported file type for photo. that should allow uploading it.

    Hi Jan,
    I had a look.

    In order to allow webp uploads work you will need to install a plugin like this

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-enable-webp/

    once it is done, the upload works. I still see that MediaPress does not show the uploaded image on upload screen(shows in gallery/single pages).

    I will need some time to investigate and fix it.
