Description
Deliver downsized images to mobile devices
WURFL Image Tailor (WIT) http://web.wurfl.io/#wit is an automatic image transformation and delivery service, based on
the WURFL device detection library http://web.wurfl.io/#learnmore. WURFL will detect the device, and its screen size
and it will resize and optimize (downsize) each image accordingly.
This plugin hooks automatically into the WordPress HTML image code generation process and changes each image’s src
attribute, so that it is optimized for that specific device and delivered via the WURFL Image Tailor service.
The plugin also filters the post contents to replace the src attribute of images in it. But it currently does this for
all (!) images that it finds in the post contents. Right now it does not replace the href attribute of links that
point to images in the media gallery.
Use WordPress functions and filters
Make sure you use functions like:
the_post_thumbnail(…)wp_get_attachment_image(…)the_content(…)
However, do not use wp_get_attachment_image_src(), because we cannot hook into it (yet)! Right now the plugin hooks
into these WordPress filters:
wp_get_attachment_image_attributesthe_content
Adaptive Images
Also, checkout Adaptive Images for WordPress https://wordpress.org/plugins/adaptive-images/ a self-hosted, transparent mobile images solution.
Installation
