Google Business Profile does not accept WebP images, so posts with a WebP featured image were shared without their image. When the featured image is a WebP file in the uploads directory, convert a JPEG copy and use that URL. Any other case (supported format, remote image, conversion failure) keeps the original URL.

Summary
Google Business Profile (GMB) doesn't support WebP images, so posts whose featured image is a WebP file were shared without an image. GMB hands Google an image URL to fetch, so the fix is to give it a non-WebP URL.
When the featured image is a WebP file in the local uploads directory, a JPEG copy is created (via
wp_get_image_editor) and its URL is used. For any other case — an already-supported format, a remote/CDN image, or a conversion failure — the original URL is returned unchanged, so behaviour is never worse. The unsupported-format list is filterable (rop_gmb_unsupported_image_formats).Will affect the visual aspect of the product
