## Description

Slimage uses [jpegoptim](https://github.com/tjko/jpegoptim) and [optipng](http://optipng.sourceforge.net/)
to compress your images during upload. It will compress the thumbnails that WordPress
generates but will leave the original file intact, so that you can safely restore
your changes if necessary.

The plugin will also allow you to manually set the compression level and quality
on a per-image basis. That way you have absolute control on how much quality you
are willing to sacrifice in order to achieve better performance improvements, which
can be handy if you want to pass the Google PageSpeed test.

Using it in conjuction with the `wp media regenerate` command of [WP-CLI](https://wp-cli.org/)
or with some thumbnail regeneration plugin, you can bulk optimize your photos and
even experiment until you find the combination of quality/size that suits you.

To use the plugin you need to have `jpegoptim` and `optipng` installed on your server
and make sure that PHP `shell_exec()` function isn’t disabled in your `php.ini`.

#### Features

 * Compress an image during upload.
 * You can set a default level of compression for all newly uploaded images.
 * You can override that compression level on a per-image basis.
 * You can use all the available options of jpegoptim and optipng.
 * Combining it with some image regeneration tool, you can bulk compress your existing
   images.
 * The plugin leaves the original image intact, so that any change that you make
   can be reversible.

## Installation

 1. Install jpegoptim and optipng on your server.
 2. Make sure that shell_exec() is active on your php.ini (it usually is).
 3. Upload the Slimage plugin to your WordPress plugins directory and activate it.
 4. Go to Settings / Media and check the « Enable Slimage » under « Compress images
    with Slimage ». If jpegoptim and optipng are installed on a custom path on your
    server, set that path under « Server path for jpegoptim & optipng ».

## FAQ

### Can I bulk regenerate already uploaded images?

Yes. After you set your desired compression level on the plugin settings and save
your changes, you can use the `wp media regenerate` command of the amazing [WP-CLI](https://wp-cli.org/)
to regenerate the thumbnails. If you don’t feel comfortable with the command line
and prefer to do it with a plugin, [Force Regenerate Thumbnails](https://wordpress.org/plugins/force-regenerate-thumbnails/)
and [AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ajax-thumbnail-rebuild/)
have been tested and confirmed to play nice with Slimage.

### Can I set different compression level for a specific image?

Yes. On each image edit page there is an option called « Override quality » which
allows you to set your specific settings for that particular image. After changing
your image settings, you still need to regenerate its thumbnails in order to run
the compression.

### Can I use this plugin if I don’t have jpegoptim or optipng installed on my server?

If neither jpegoptim nor optipng exist on your server, then the plugin won’t work.
It won’t break your site, but it will not do anything (except from showing a related
warning message on it’s settings page). If only one of the tools exists, then it
will use it to process the specific type of images only (JPEGs for jpegoptim and
PNGs for optipng).

### Can I use this plugin if `shell_exec()` isn’t enabled on my php.ini?

No. The plugin relies on the PHP `shell_exec()` function which is by default enabled
by most hosting companies. If, in your case, it is disabled, you will not be able
to use it. Again, this will not break your site.

### What extra arguments can I set?

The default extra arguments should be fine for most cases. If you really want to
play around with it, though, there are various additional options for both [jpegoptim](http://www.kokkonen.net/tjko/src/man/jpegoptim.txt)
and [optipng](http://optipng.sourceforge.net/optipng-0.7.7.man.pdf).

### Can I pass the Google Pagespeed test with that plugin?

Yes. But you might need to make some compromise on the quality of your photos. For
JPEGs, setting the quality level to 50 or 60 is enough to pass the test on most 
cases. Depending on the complexity of the image, though, on some cases the quality
loss might be visible to the naked eye so you might need to experiment with the 
level of quality.
