## Description

**Digimorfic WebP SEO Converter** uses Deep Database Integration to update your 
WordPress database and attachment metadata directly. Instead of relying on fragile
HTML string replacements on the frontend, it natively updates image paths so your
page builders (like Elementor), caching plugins, and CDNs serve Next-Gen images 
out of the box.

Whether you want the universal browser support of **WebP** or the advanced compression
of **AVIF**, Digimorfic handles it smoothly with separate storage policies for bulk
optimization and new uploads.

### Core Features:

 * **Deep Native Integration:** Updates actual database records (`wp_posts` and `
   wp_postmeta`) natively, including full support for WordPress `-scaled` images
   and custom thumbnails.
 * **Next-Gen WebP & AVIF Support:** Choose between universal WebP or high-efficiency
   AVIF formats with customizable quality levels.
 * **Dual Storage Management:** Set independent retention rules for existing images(
   Bulk Optimization) and brand-new uploads (Auto-Conversion). Choose to back up
   originals, delete them to save space, or keep both.
 * **One-Click Smart Restore:** Safely stores original images in a dedicated backup
   directory (`wp-content/uploads/digimorfic-backups/`). Restore any image to its
   original format with a single click while automatically cleaning up all generated
   WebP/AVIF thumbnails.
 * **SEO 301 Server Rules:** Built-in `.htaccess` (Apache/LiteSpeed) and `Nginx`
   fallback routing rules ensure external links and older cached references redirect
   cleanly with 301 status codes instead of returning 404 errors.
 * **Controlled AJAX Bulk Processor:** Scan, filter, search, and convert your media
   library in Grid or List view using a controlled concurrent AJAX queue designed
   to keep server memory stable.
 * **Server Health Monitor:** Built-in check for PHP Memory Limit, Max Execution
   Time, and active image processors (`Imagick` / `GD`).

## Installation

 1. Upload the `digimorfic-webp-seo-converter` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory, or install the plugin directly through the WordPress plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Navigate to **Settings -> WebP/AVIF Optimizer** to configure your output format(
    WebP or AVIF), quality level, and storage management preferences.
 4. Check the **SEO Server Rules** tab to verify that Apache/LiteSpeed rules are active,
    or copy the Nginx configuration block if your server runs on Nginx.
 5. Go to the **Bulk Optimization** tab, click **Scan Database**, and start optimizing
    your existing media library.

## FAQ

### Why is AVIF conversion slower than WebP?

AVIF provides higher compression ratios than WebP at similar quality levels, but
its encoding algorithm requires more CPU processing time. It is normal for AVIF 
conversion to take slightly longer per image.

### Does this plugin work with Elementor and caching plugins?

Yes. Because Digimorfic updates the attachment metadata and file paths directly 
in the WordPress database, page builders and caching plugins automatically detect
and serve the new WebP/AVIF URLs. For any hardcoded old URLs, the 301 SEO rewrite
rules handle the redirection seamlessly.

### Can I keep backups for old images but delete originals for new uploads?

Yes! In the settings tab, you have two separate options: **Storage Management (Bulk)**
for existing images and **Storage Management (New Uploads)** for files uploaded 
automatically.

### What happens when I restore an image?

The plugin copies your original JPG/PNG file back from the `digimorfic-backups` 
folder into the original uploads directory, regenerates standard WordPress metadata,
and removes the generated WebP/AVIF file along with all its thumbnail sizes.
