– Configurable JPEG, WebP, and PNG quality settings<br />
– Max-dimension resizing (preserves aspect ratio)<br />
– Optional WebP conversion<br />
– Optional EXIF metadata stripping<br />
– Optional thumbnail sub-size optimization<br />
– Per-image status tracking with a dedicated Images tab<br />
– Activity log for all optimization events<br />

<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Zero external dependencies</strong> — uses WordPress’s built-in WP_Image_Editor powered by GD or Imagick.</li>
<li><strong>Auto-optimize on upload</strong> — every new image is compressed and resized the moment it enters the media library.</li>
<li><strong>Configurable quality</strong> — set JPEG quality (1–100), WebP quality (1–100), and PNG compression level (0–9) independently.</li>
<li><strong>Max dimension capping</strong> — set maximum width and height; images exceeding those dimensions are scaled down while preserving aspect ratio.</li>
<li><strong>WebP conversion</strong> — optionally convert JPEG and PNG images to WebP on upload.</li>
<li><strong>Metadata stripping</strong> — remove EXIF data to shave extra bytes off every image.</li>
<li><strong>Thumbnail optimization</strong> — optionally optimize every registered sub-size alongside the full image.</li>
<li><strong>Bulk optimization</strong> — the Images tab shows your 30 most recent uploads with per-image status and a bulk start/stop control that processes one image at a time without timeouts.</li>
<li><strong>Activity log</strong> — the Log tab records every optimization and settings change with timestamps.</li>
</ul>

<h3>Optimize the Images on Your Website, Drive More Conversions and Increase Your Speed Score</h3>
<p>The QODE Optimizer plugin is developed to let you <strong>convert, compress and adjust file sizes for all the images</strong> on your website in a completely streamlined and quick manner.<br />
The plugin allows you to easily perform <strong>bulk or individual image optimization</strong>.<br />
You can convert JPG, PNG and GIF files, adjust default image width & height, as well as choose a <strong>compression method</strong> to be applied to images during the optimization.<br />
For <strong>Lossy</strong> compression methods, you can fine-tune the amount of compression applied, which in turn results in different image qualities.</p>
<h3>The Easy Way to Remove Image Metadata</h3>
<p>The QODE Optimizer provides you with a number of additional options related to images on your site.<br />
You can easily <strong>remove metadata</strong> for all the images on your website, thus reducing their respective file sizes even further.</p>
<h3>Refine the Images Even Further by Converting them to the WebP Format</h3>
<p>If you wish to convert your images to the supremely practical WebP format, the <a href="https://qodeinteractive.com/products/plugins/qode-optimizer-premium/" rel="nofollow ugc">QODE Optimizer</a> plugin has you covered.<br />
You also have the option to <strong>control the WebP image compression quality</strong>, insert rewriting rules for delivering WebP images on Apache/LiteSpeed servers, and more.</p>
<h3>Follow and Analyze the Process of Optimization in the System Log</h3>
<p>By enabling the system log, you’ll be able to see all the steps that the system takes during the process of image optimization.<br />
This helps you <strong>further refine the optimization</strong> as you’ll be able to see precisely how the optimization affected each individual image in the process.</p>
<h3>Get Even More With Premium!</h3>
<p>The premium version of <a href="https://qodeinteractive.com/products/plugins/qode-optimizer-premium/" rel="nofollow ugc">QODE Optimizer</a> lets you improve things even further.<br />
You have the option to <strong>enable automatic optimization</strong> for all images uploaded on your website. On top of that, you can also choose specific predetermined image sizes you do not wish to apply the optimization to.<br />
Another useful feature that you get with the premium version lets you <strong>place watermarks</strong> over the regular images on your site and choose where you wish to position them.<br />
One more practical functionality allows you to set a <strong>background fill color</strong> for JPGs – this is particularly useful when converting images with transparent backgrounds to the JPG format.<br />
In addition to this, you can also have the <strong>original images deleted</strong> automatically after conversion, saving up even more in terms of memory.</p>
