CodePros Image Optimizer

Large images slowing down your WordPress site?

Unoptimized images are one of the biggest reasons WordPress websites become slow.

Large image files increase page size, delay page loading, and negatively impact Core Web Vitals and SEO rankings. Manually optimizing images can be time-consuming and easy to forget.

CodePros Image Optimizer solves this automatically.

The plugin automatically creates WebP versions during upload, helping reduce image file sizes while preserving visual quality. Smaller images can help improve page-load performance, user experience, and Core Web Vitals.

Key Features (Free)

  • WebP Conversion – Every image you upload is automatically converted to WebP format
  • Auto-Optimize on Upload – Compression settings are applied automatically the moment an image is added to your library
  • Quality Control – Adjust the WebP compression level from 0 to 100
  • Frontend WebP Serving – Serve WebP images automatically to supported browsers
  • Image Filtering – Filter images by type, date, and conversion status

Pro Features

Upgrade to the Pro version to unlock advanced optimization tools.

  • Bulk Optimize Existing Images – Convert previously uploaded images to WebP
  • Scheduled Optimization – Run conversions during low-traffic hours
  • S3 & R2 Storage – Sync optimized images to Amazon S3 or Cloudflare R2
  • CDN Delivery – Serve optimized images globally through a CDN

Built for websites with large media libraries or frequent image uploads.

How It Works

When you upload an image, the plugin uses the Imagick PHP extension to create a WebP version alongside your original — your original file is never modified or removed. Supported browsers automatically receive the smaller WebP version; browsers that don’t support WebP receive your original image.

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.6 or higher
  • PHP 7.4 or higher
  • Imagick PHP extension with WebP support enabled (ask your host to confirm if you’re unsure)

Code Structure

Built using WordPress coding standards, PSR-4 autoloading, and modular, reusable components.

How do I convert my WordPress images to WebP?

Install the plugin, enable WebP conversion in settings, and every new image you upload is automatically converted.

Does this plugin delete my original images?

No. It creates a WebP version alongside your original — your original file is never modified or deleted.

What image formats are supported?

JPEG (.jpg) and PNG images for WebP conversion.

Will this work with all hosting providers?

It requires the Imagick PHP extension with WebP support enabled. Most modern hosts include this by default — ask your host if you’re unsure.

What happens to images I already uploaded before installing this plugin?

They stay as they are until converted. Bulk-converting your existing library is a Pro feature — the free plugin optimizes new uploads going forward.

After trying several image optimization plugins over the years, this one stood out for how straightforward it is. Install it, enable WebP conversion, set the quality level, and you're done — new uploads get optimized automatically with no fiddling.We tested this across two very similar WordPress websites, and the site using the plugin showed a significant improvement in overall page performance and image optimization. Easy to use, reliable, and made a real difference on a production site — one of the client sites where we deployed it averages 364 active users every 7 days according to Google Analytics, so this is a real-world environment, not a sandbox.The WebP versions are served automatically to supported browsers while keeping the originals untouched, which is exactly the safe behavior you want on a live site. Settings are clean, there's no bloat, and it didn't conflict with anything else on our stack.A solid, no-nonsense plugin from a team that clearly knows what WordPress site owners actually need. Highly recommended.
