<p>Halka WebP Image Optimizer hooks into the WordPress upload pipeline to silently convert JPEG and PNG images to WebP during upload.</p>
<p>It is a minimalist, performance-first optimizer. Unlike “bloated” suites, Halka focuses on a zero-configuration approach to keep your server load light (“Halka” means light). It is designed for users who want WebP conversion without the database overhead of larger plugins. No external APIs, no credits required — everything happens locally on your server.</p>
<p><strong>Features</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Convert JPEG, PNG (and optionally GIF) to <strong>WebP</strong> on upload</li>
<li>Configurable quality per format</li>
<li>Optional maximum dimension cap (auto-resize on upload)</li>
<li>Strip EXIF/IPTC metadata to save extra bytes</li>
<li>Optionally delete the original file after conversion</li>
<li><strong>Bulk converter</strong> — process existing Media Library images in small batches</li>
<li>Per-image <strong>Convert to WebP</strong> button in the Media Library list view</li>
<li>Server support badge so you know what your host can do</li>
<li>Zero external dependencies — uses WordPress’s built-in <code>WP_Image_Editor</code></li>
</ul>

Offload, AI & Optimize with Cloudflare Images

Amazing work! It works out of the box. I only had to add the credentials manually in wp-config.php, but that is just 5 seconds of work. If you use cloudflare, go for it!

PS: It would be great to have the option of excluding certain file types such as pdf (or doing that automatically by only uploading accepted file types). I have this issue with the bulk uploader - but I just read that the developer is working on that. 

So, really five big stars!

Many thanks for your great work!

Works very well!
