Greg - SiteOrigin

<p>A lot of themes ship with Timthumb because it allows their users to start using the theme without rebuilding thumbnails.</p>
<p>Secure Image Resizer offers a far more secure alternative. It allows theme developers to rely on WordPress’ own image resizing functionality using <code>add_image_size</code> and <code>get_the_post_thumbnail</code>.</p>
<p>When get_the_post_thumbnail is called, Secure Image Resizer checks if the requested image size exists. If the image doesn’t exist it dynamically creates the resized version. It works in the background, with no front end functionality.</p>
<p>Theme developers can either bundle this plugin into their themes, or suggest that their users install it.</p>
<p>It also includes 2 functions <code>so_resize_custom</code> and <code>so_resize_custom_html</code> to do dynamic image resizing using Imagick. Great for theme developers.</p>
<p>Please Note: This is an early release of Secure Image Resizer. Please use it, try and break it and report any bugs to me support@siteorigin.com so I can quickly fix them and work towards version 1.0.</p>


Secure Image Resizer

A very simple and secure image resizer. It adds dynamic resizing so you don't need to regenerate thumbnails when you install a new theme.

</ul>
<p>The best WordPress image optimizer – you don’t need to lift a finger. Just install the plugin and Sirv will automatically serve perfectly scaled and optimized images possible file-size. Every option is easily configured, if you wish to change the defaults.</p>
<h4>Optimize your WordPress Media Library</h4>
<p>Automatically optimize your existing WordPress media library images, without lifting a finger. Sirv can automatically copy your media library to Sirv, from where images will be served as highly optimized images across Sirv’s fast, global WordPress CDN (19 worldwide locations).</p>
<p>All these images (and more) can be automatically optimized by Sirv:</p>
<ul>
<li>Media gallery images</li>
<li>Featured images</li>
<li>WooCommerce product & category images</li>
<li>Images added via other plugins or scripts</li>
<li>Images added via “Add Media” button</li>

</ul>
<p>Simply enable the Sirv CDN and images will sync to your Sirv account automatically.</p>
<p>See the <a href="https://sirv.com/features/" rel="nofollow ugc">complete list of features</a> of Sirv’s fresh new take on media hosting and optimization.</p>
<h3>Take your WooCommerce sales to another level</h3>
<ul>
<li>Optimization & CDN delivery of all your product images</li>

<li>Add text captions</li>
<li>Serves your files wherever you need them – websites, apps, feeds, social media, email campaigns</li>
</ul>
<h4>Image zoom</h4>
<p>Sirv loves huge images – it can zoom deep inside them very fast. No matter how big, images load fast, just like zooming on a Google Map. The bigger your images, the more impressive this image zoom is – perfect if you have really high quality images.</p>
<h4>Video streaming</h4>
<p>Any video you upload to Sirv will be converted to different resolution video streams, for instant playback. Every user will receive the most optimal stream for their device, screen and network connection speed.</p>
<h4>3D models (GLB and USDZ)</h4>
<p>Upload your 3D models to Sirv and embed them in your web pages and product galleries. It’s easy and automated with Sirv Media Viewer. No coding needed. It also provides Augmented Reality (AR) automatically.</p>
<h4>360 spin</h4>
<p>Shoppers adore spinning products around to see them from all sides. If you’re selling something online, maybe with WooCommerce, Sirv provides a stunning 360-degree photography experience. Simply upload a set of photos and a 360 spin will be immediately ready to embed in your page. It feels incredible on desktop and mobile alike, especially the big full-screen 360 spin view.</p>

<h4>What our users say</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>★★★★★<br />
  “We’ve halved the load time on mobiles of a site that we had already done quite a bit of work on to get image sizes down.” <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/users/martingfisher/" rel="ugc">@martingfisher</a></p>
<p>★★★★★<br />
  “So far the best CDN plugin for WordPress. Please, never disappear!” <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/users/mavenickster/" rel="ugc">@mavenickster</a></p>
<p>★★★★★<br />
  “I was looking for a CDN fast and easy (no need to code)! Sirv is the best – Just upload your photos to your WordPress library and voilà “roulez jeunesse!!!” (French expression). Very good service!” <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/users/disconance/" rel="ugc">@disconance</a></p>
<p>★★★★★<br />
  “Sirv is fantastic! I have a lot of images on my website, and most of them are large, which resulted in slow site speeds, even with a CDN. What I love about Sirv is that they offer a CDN service, but also dynamically resize images based on the user’s browser/device, and serve the right file type. It has meant HUGE speed improvements on my website.” <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/users/basellen/" rel="ugc">@basellen</a></p>
</blockquote>
<h4>Optimal format (every time)</h4>
<p>Google loves next-gen image formats for SEO, but it’s a pain to convert all your images and keep track of them. Sirv solves that. It automatically delivers images to each user in the most optimal format. Usually that’ll be AVIF or WebP and the filesize is dramatically smaller, so Google will reward you with better search ranking.</p>
<p>Sirv’s intelligence always serves the smallest possible file format to each users’ browser. It is 100% automatic. Plus, images are automatically scaled down to the suitable width/height and they’re lazy loaded, so you’ll really have the best possible image solution for WordPress.</p>
