<p>Bulk images allows you to optimize images uploaded to wordpress without creating unnecessary copies of the upload folder!</p>
<p>Warning: the plugin overwrites images.<br />
Later the plugin tries to update links to images in articles and metadata, but it may happen that these need to be recreated. Other plugins that optimize images generally duplicate all images and create complex overlays to manage their systems. This plugin is designed to keep sites with the original wordpress structure, but it may require a little more work later. But I believe this work is rewarded by better final quality.<br />
If anything goes wrong anyway you can go back with the restore button.</p>

<p>WP SmartCrop allows you to set the ‘focal point’ of any image, right from the media library, then crops your images to match your css rules <em>(no more squished aspect ratios)</em>, keeping that focal point, not only in view, but as near as possible to a ‘rule of thirds’ position in the image.  The results are powerful, composed photos at any screen size, with any constraints.</p>
<ul>
<li>Visually select your images’ focal points with an intuitive click-based interface</li>
<li>Quickly enable or disable smart-cropping on a per-image basis.</li>
<li>Easily target only the images you want to style, with the <em>img.wpsmartcrop-image</em> selector</li>
<li>Automatic image preloader, so your users never see partially loaded images again</li>
<li>Semantic HTML5/CSS3 for modern browsers, with automatic fallback to non-semantic HTML4/CSS2 for older browsers.</li>
<li>Lightweight and fast processing of images, even inside post content</li>
<li>Fully compatible with common caching and optimization plugins and solutions, such as W3 Total Cache, Wordfence, WPEngine’s EverCache, Better WordPress Minify, and Google’s PageSpeed Module.</li>
<li>Lets you take full advantage of the new responsive srcset features added in WordPress 4.4, to make the most of your images.</li>

WP SmartCrop

This function should be a core functionality! So when I found this little gem I was so happy.

A small but significant improvement to WP

WP SmartCrop will crop your images on-the-fly to match your CSS, keeping the main focal point in view.
