<p>This plugin includes several enhancements to the WordPress Media Library that can be used within specialized themes or separately. The plugin allows users to quickly organize all their media into folders. You can easily drag and drop images into folders and change the tree view of the folders as you wish. The plugin also allows you to calculate the dominant color for all images in your Media Library (which can then be used in different blocks or shortcodes), add different categories and tags to images, create a set of media sizes to display Responsive Images, and much more.</p>

Zu Media

Enhances WordPress Media Library with some features (folders, dominant color, location category and others).

WordPress.org

<p>This plugin determines and stores the dominant color for newly uploaded images in the media library within WordPress and then uses it to create a placeholder background of that color in the frontend, visible until the image is loaded.</p>
<p><em>This plugin was formerly known as Dominant Color Images.</em></p>


Image Placeholders


does not break the site, but all placeholders are grey. color detection does not work.



I host WP docker latest myself with nginx and imageick + gd + webp + AVIF so yeah i think my setup is not in cause


does nothing


This is such a nice enhancement for any site! 


Works exactly as advertised

Displays placeholders based on an image's dominant color while the image is loading.
