Every time you upload an image, WordPress and your theme create several extra copies — often eight to ten files per image. On shared hosting with inode (file count) limits, this fills your quota fast, slows down backups, and wastes disk space.
ShinPix gives you back control:
<ul>
<li>Choose which image sizes are generated. See every size registered by WordPress and your theme, with dimensions, and disable the ones you do not use.</li>
<li>See your savings. ShinPix shows how many files each upload stores now versus the maximum, so you can see the inodes you save at a glance.</li>
<li>Safe by default. ShinPix flags the sizes the WordPress admin and block editor rely on, and warns you before you disable them.</li>
<li>Cap oversized uploads. Automatically scale down huge phone photos (often 4000px+) to a sensible maximum, keeping web quality while cutting file size.</li>
<li>Convert to WebP. Create a lighter WebP copy of every new upload and serve it automatically to browsers that support it — with the original kept as a fallback. ShinPix detects whether your server can produce WebP and disables the feature gracefully if it cannot.</li>
<li>Compress on upload. Set the quality used for the images WordPress generates, so every size is leaner.</li>
<li>Optimize your existing library. Scan what is already in your Media Library and convert it to WebP in the background, batch by batch, with a progress bar you can pause and resume. Optimize or re-optimize a single image right from the Media Library, and retry anything that failed.</li>
</ul>
ShinPix is built for the real world of budget shared hosting. It is lightweight, adds no front-end overhead, and only changes what happens at upload time.
Coming soon (and on the roadmap):
<ul>
<li>AVIF conversion (Pro)</li>
<li>Scheduled, fully automatic background processing (Pro)</li>
<li>Offload to S3, Cloudflare R2, Wasabi and other object storage to remove image files from your server entirely</li>
</ul>
ShinPix is part of the ShinKit family of WordPress tools.

This is an easy and fast way to crop any uploaded image in your wordpress. No more complicated graphical editors, photos of people without head or products with wrong view. Select a thumbnail, edit the crop area and save the new thumbnail image.
This plugin doesn’t create any new file or folder, when it saves the new crop area it rewrites the original thumbnail file, this means it doesn’t affect the theme design 🙂
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>The plugin automatically use all images created with the function add_image_size even if they are hard cropped or proportional. More info in https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size#Crop_Mode</li>
<li>“Crop Editor” quick link in media list.</li>
<li>“Crop Editor” link in featured image widget.</li>
<li>“Crop Editor” button inside file details in media manager.</li>
</ul>

<h3>How to use it</h3>
<ol>
<li>Select an image, open the image editor and click on the Crop Editor button.</li>
<li>Choose the image size you want and crop it.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Recomendations</h3>
If you are a developer and you need to rebuild the thumbnails we recommend use this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/ajax-thumbnail-rebuild/ it helps you to do it one at a time.
IMPORTANT: Notice that rebuilding thumbnails will overwrite the thumbnails cropped with the TTT Crop plugin.
<h3>Hacks</h3>
Just copy&paste this code into your functions.php
Remove sizes from the editor
<pre><code>add_filter( 'tttcrop_image_sizes', 'custom_tttcrop_image_sizes');
function custom_tttcrop_image_sizes( $sizes ) {
 unset( $sizes['thumbnail'] );
 unset( $sizes['large'] );
 return $sizes;
}
?>
</code></pre>
Remove thumbnails sizes from the editor for an specific post type
<pre><code>function custom_tttcrop_image_sizes_CPT($sizes) {

 foreach ($sizes as $key => $values) {
 if ($key == 'THUMBNAIL-SIZE1')
 $new[ $key ] = $values;
 elseif ($key == 'THUMBNAIL-SIZE1')
 $new[ $key ] = $values; 
 }

 return $new;
}
</code></pre>
Change the name of the image to human friendly names
<pre><code>function local_ttt_crop_human_name($name) {
 switch( $name ) {
 case 'single-slider';
 return 'Home slider image'; break;
 case 'widget-thumbnail';
 return 'Widget small image'; break;

 default:
 return $name; break;
 }
}
add_filter('ttt_crop_human_name','local_ttt_crop_human_name');
</code></pre>
This will change the name of the image inside the tooltip when it is selected.

TTT Crop

Select any thumbnail size from your theme and crop it in a simple way.
