Orshot

Orshot lets you connect your WordPress site to <a href="https://orshot.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Orshot</a> — a template-based image, PDF, and video generation platform — and automatically produce visual assets for your content.
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Auto Featured Images – Automatically generate a featured image from an Orshot template every time you publish a post. The post title, excerpt, and category are injected into the template.</li>
<li>Open Graph / Social Images – Pre-generate OG images for social sharing when a post is published. The plugin injects the appropriate <code>og:image</code> and <code>twitter:image</code> meta tags.</li>
<li>Gutenberg Block – Insert the Orshot Image block into any post or page to pick a template, generate an image, and embed it inline.</li>
<li>Upload Receiver – Orshot can push rendered files directly into your WordPress media library as a storage connection.</li>
<li>Template Picker – Browse and select templates from your Orshot workspace without leaving WordPress.</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Install and activate the plugin.</li>
<li>Go to Settings → Orshot and click Connect to Orshot.</li>
<li>Authorize the connection in your Orshot account (OAuth — no API keys to copy).</li>
<li>Choose default templates for featured images and OG images.</li>
<li>Publish a post and watch the images generate automatically.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Third-Party Service</h4>
This plugin connects to the Orshot external service to generate images and other assets from templates.

Eliptum Cover Image Optimizer introduces an asynchronous, sandboxed client-side processing workstation running completely within the user’s local browser environment. By manipulating pixels strictly via HTML5 canvas operations, it completely isolates production web servers from standard memory-intensive image handling overhead.
Users can safely load local resources via drag-and-drop mechanics, execute real-time relative crops, target dedicated layout viewport presets (1200×628, 1600×900, 1920×1080, 800×450), and save results locally or directly into the native WordPress Media Library.
The utility features complex lightweight filtering math including granular levels (black/white points), gamma distribution modifications, contrast adjustment matrices, pixel saturation alterations, channel-specific balances, high-pass sharpening kernels, and gray/heat/cyan/gold color mappings.
For WordPress developers and open-source creators, this workspace functions as a complete asset generation kit to build graphics for the official WordPress.org plugin repository. Using the specialized “Download For Plugin” pipeline, the utility automatically scales and center-crops any source image into the four exact required deployment formats: a normal banner (<code>banner-772x250.jpg</code>), a high-DPI retina banner (<code>banner-1544x500.jpg</code>), a standard square icon (<code>icon-128x128.png</code>), and a high-DPI retina square icon (<code>icon-256x256.png</code>). These can be downloaded instantly in a single action to place directly inside your SVN assets directory.
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Fully isolated browser-based local engine processing via HTML Canvas APIs.</li>
<li>One-click automated asset bundle production for generating official WordPress plugin repository assets (<code>banner-772x250.jpg</code>, <code>banner-1544x500.jpg</code>, <code>icon-128x128.png</code>, and <code>icon-256x256.png</code>).</li>
<li>Automated crop boundaries featuring center, top, bottom, and smart center matrix fills.</li>
<li>Secure optional cross-origin direct asset loading.</li>
<li>Integrated dynamic save mechanics pipeline targeting the native WordPress Media Library without page reloads.</li>
<li>Comprehensive structural image manipulations including advanced sharpening algorithms and custom channel transformations.</li>
<li>No external tracking frameworks, tracking cookies, or remote script injections.</li>
</ul>
