Sitecore .webp images support

smitbmx

The .webp media in Sitecore has been supported since version 10.4. But if you need to add support for lower versions, follow the next steps:

  1. Under the master database add webp items under the next pathes (can be cloned from jpeg item and then adjusted):
/sitecore/templates/System/Media/Unversioned/webP
/sitecore/templates/System/Media/Versioned/webP

2. In Sitecore.config a new media type should be added:

<mediaType name="WEBP image" extensions="webp">
    <mimeType>image/webp</mimeType>
	<forceDownload>false</forceDownload>
	<sharedTemplate>system/media/unversioned/webP</sharedTemplate>
	<versionedTemplate>system/media/versioned/webP</versionedTemplate>
	<mediaValidator type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageValidator" />
	<thumbnails>
	    <generator type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageThumbnailGenerator, Sitecore.Kernel">
	        <extension>png</extension>
	    </generator>
	    <width>150</width>
	    <height>150</height>
	    <backgroundColor>#FFFFFF</backgroundColor>
	</thumbnails>
	<prototypes>
	    <media type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageMedia, Sitecore.Kernel" />
	</prototypes>
</mediaType>
