NinjaWeb

<p>NinjaWeb Smart Media Optimizer is a local media optimization engine for WordPress site owners, maintainers, and agencies who want controlled image processing without relying on an external optimization service.</p>
<p>The plugin runs inside WordPress using the image tools available on your server. There are no API keys, no credits, no monthly image caps, no required CDN, and no subscription gate for the core workflow. You control when images are scanned, queued, optimized, retried, and restored.</p>
<p>The workflow is designed for transparency. Instead of hiding the process behind a remote service, the plugin provides a real-time Media Engine panel with progress, current job details, live activity logging, pause/resume/stop controls, failed-item retry, and clear restore options when backups are available.</p>
<p>Key features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Local optimization using your WordPress/server image tools</li>
<li>No external API, no credits, no CDN dependency, and no required subscription</li>
<li>Real-time bulk optimizer with progress, pause, resume, stop, retry, and live activity log</li>

<li>Local WebP generation for JPEG and PNG images when supported by the server</li>
<li>Search and filter Media Library images from one screen</li>

<li>Compression presets with simple guidance</li>
<li>Custom quality mode for advanced control</li>
<li>Maximum-width resizing for large uploads</li>
<li>Optional minimum file-size threshold so tiny images can be skipped</li>
