Enable SVG, WebP & ICO Upload  

Description

By default, WordPress does not allow uploading file formats like SVG, WebP, and ICO (in some hostings) citing security reasons. These files are becoming very popular and in fact, are recommended by popular web speed scan platforms like Google PageSpeed Insights or Gtmetrix to resolve the serve images in nextgen formats. Thus, this FREE PLUGIN will enable you to upload these files.

Simply install the plugin and your WordPress website now can easily accept media in SVG, WebP, and ICO format. You will also have an option to disable some or all images format (of the three) as required.

Reviews

The Enable SVG, WebP & ICO Upload plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in versions up to 1.0.4. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected site’s server which may make a potential remote code execution. More information on the threat intel on the Wordfence website.

The plugin is great, compact and easy to set up.

The plugin does what it should. But as long as why it needs to take up space in the admin panel. Until this item will be moved to the Settings submenu, I will unfortunately leave a bad review here because I find it unnecessary to have it in admin menu.
