Add-on Image Optimizer

Bug Summary

The Local Image Optimizer add-on does not appear in Local’s Add-ons tab when other add-ons are installed.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Local (version 9.2.4).
  2. Place the local-addon-image-optimizer folder in /Users/luke_1234/Library/Application Support/Local/addons .
  3. Verify that enabled-addons.json contains "@getflywheel/local-addon-image-optimizer": true .
  4. Install other add-ons (Cloud Backups v2.1.3, Instant Reload v1.1.4, Notes v1.2.2, Xdebug + VS Code v1.0.9) in the same folder.
  5. Restart Local and open the Add-ons tab — Image Optimizer is missing.

Hi, any update to this? I’m encountering the same issue.

@laurievitas Are you running Local 9.2.5? This should no longer be an issue in the latest version.

Run ‘check for updates’ or download the new version here if you’re on an older one:
