Warp iMagick Image Optimization. Resize & Compress images. Sharpen & Optimize images. Convert WebP.

<ul>
<li>
Warp iMagick Image Compressor enables your site to serve images in next-gen formats. 
JPEG/PNG media types are converted to WebP clones. Original images are optimized &amp; served for compatibility with older ( not WebP compatible ) browsers.
</li>
<li>
Warp iMagick Image Optimizer is private and free. 
No external cloud/service or signup required. No limits in number or megabytes of optimized images. Plugin uses only PHP software installed on your server.
</li>
<li>
Warp iMagick Image Optimization is easy to use. 
Install, activate, configure and start uploading new media images. To bulk (re)compress existing media images use <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/">&#8220;Regenerate Thumbnails Plugin&#8221;</a> or <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/media/regenerate/" rel="nofollow ugc">&#8220;WP CLI media regenerate&#8221; command</a>.
</li>
<li>
After activation, settings you may want to change are JPEG Compression Quality and SharpenImage Sigma. 
Choose your image compress quality from 30% to 95%. As recommended in video below, plugin default JPEG Compression Quality of 60% is good speed/quality compromise for most of the web sites. If not, choose your own best compression/quality settings. Sharpen Image from 0.5 to 1.5 Sigma. For the rest of the settings, use defaults <a href="https://developers.google.com/speed/docs/insights/OptimizeImages#optimizations-for-gif,-png,-and-jpeg-images" rel="nofollow ugc">(some recommended by Google)</a> or feel free to experiment and have fun with. 😇

</li>
<li>
You don&#8217;t have to resize or optimize images before upload. 
Warp iMagick image optimizer plugin will do it for you and preserve your uploaded high quality original image as source for multiple recompressions without ever over-compressing.
</li>
<li>
Fastest and most comprehensive serving of converted WebP images &#8230; 
&#8230; is achieved by your server software (not by PHP). Transparent serving WebP clones instead original JPEG/PNG uploads (for WebP enabled browsers) covers all image links: in HTML code, in CSS code (styles) and in JavaScript code. You do not have to rewrite HTML , nor your (background image) CSS styles, nor dynamically invoked images via Java Script. Serving WebP images with <a href="https://httpd.apache.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">Apache Server</a> requires simple manual (DIY) modification of .htaccess file. Use <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-htaccess-editor/">WP Htaccess Editor Plugin</a> to safely modify (copy&amp;paste) your Apache .htaccess configuration file. You will find instructions on how to configure server and deliver WebP images on the settings page. Click on HELP at the top right of the plugin SETTINGS PAGE. If you use <a href="https://wordops.net/" rel="nofollow ugc">WordOps &#8211; Free WordPress sites Nginx stack &amp; control CLI for VPS or Dedicated servers)</a>, your <a href="https://nginx.org/en/" rel="nofollow ugc">Nginx Server</a> is already <a href="https://github.com/WordOps/WordOps" rel="nofollow ugc">configured</a> to serve WebP clones instead original JPEG/PNG uploads &amp; subsizes/thumbnails, but restricted to &#8220;wp-content/uploads/&#8221; directory only.
</li>
<li>
Improve your site performance, Google PageSpeed score and SEO ranking &#8230; 
&#8230; by serving better compressed images (JPEG/PNG/WebP). When generating WebP images is enabled, every JPEG and PNG media image or thumbnail found during image optimization process is converted to WebP and saved as copy with .webp extension added. Default PNG&amp;JPEG to WebP image compression quality is 75% (configurable). In addition, JPEG to WebP compression quality can be set to use &amp; follow compression quality set for JPEG images.
</li>
<li>
Automatic image optimization to subsizes/thumbnails and conversion to WebP images: 
Compress image files more or keep higher image quality than WordPress image optimization does by default. Compress images automatically on upload or on &#8220;regenerate thumbnails&#8221;. Uploaded image is always preserved in original state. Image Compression will always start from original image quality. You can&#8217;t &#8220;overoptimize&#8221; or &#8220;overcompress&#8221;. Reoptimize existing images with <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/">&#8220;Regenerate Thumbnails plugin&#8221;</a> single or batch process, or with <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/media/regenerate/" rel="nofollow ugc">&#8220;WP CLI media regenerate&#8221; command</a>.
</li>
<li>
Generating WebP images is optional 
JPEG image optimization is speed &amp; pagespeed/SEO score efficient even without WebP. Because plugin has advanced JPEG image compression capabilities, not available in WordPress original image optimization.
</li>
<li>
Image optimization is compatible with <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/media/regenerate/" rel="nofollow ugc">&#8220;WP CLI media regenerate&#8221; command</a> and/or with <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/">&#8220;Regenerate Thumbnails&#8221; plugin</a>. 
Important Note: Since WordPress 5.3, BIG JPEG images reduced to 2560&#215;2560 (by &#8220;Big Image Size Threshold&#8221; feature) and then manually edited by user, on regenerate, will be restored back to original (unedited) version. User edited modifications will be lost, unless this plugin is used. See <a href="https://github.com/Automattic/regenerate-thumbnails/issues/102" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub issue</a>. Same bug/issue applies both to <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/media/regenerate/" rel="nofollow ugc">&#8220;WP CLI media regenerate&#8221; command</a> and <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/">&#8220;Regenerate Thumbnails plugin&#8221;</a>. To fix that bug/issue, install or upgrade Warp iMagick plugin to version 1.6.2 or above.
