## Description

imagIn – WebP & AVIF Converter helps you convert JPG, JPEG, and PNG images to modern
WebP or AVIF formats from inside WordPress.

The plugin runs on your own server using available PHP image libraries. It does 
not send image files to an external service, require a cloud account, or lock conversion
features behind a premium plan.

#### Key features

 * Convert JPG, JPEG, and PNG files during upload.
 * Convert existing JPG, JPEG, and PNG media files one at a time from the Media 
   Library.
 * Choose the output format: WebP or AVIF.
 * Keep the original file, replace it after conversion, or move it to a backup folder.
 * Set separate quality levels for WebP and AVIF.
 * Check server support for GD, Imagick, WebP, and AVIF.
 * Store conversion metadata on each attachment.
 * Show conversion status in the Media Library.
 * Use local server libraries only.

#### Local-first image conversion

imagIn is designed for site owners who want a simple conversion workflow without
connecting WordPress to an external optimization platform. Conversion support depends
on the image libraries available on your hosting server.

If your server does not support WebP or AVIF through GD or Imagick, the plugin will
show the capability status and skip unsupported conversions safely.

#### Original file handling

You can choose how imagIn handles original images after a successful conversion:

 * Keep the original file.
 * Replace the original file with the converted file.
 * Move the original file to a backup folder inside uploads.

### Privacy

imagIn processes images locally on your WordPress server.

The plugin does not send image files, site data, or usage data to an external API,
CDN, cloud service, or third-party optimization platform.

### Support

imagIn is completely free and does not include premium features, usage limits, or
cloud requirements.

### Does imagIn send images to an external API?

No. The plugin does not send image files, site data, or usage data to an external
API or cloud service.

### What output formats are supported?

formats.

hosting server. If a format is unavailable, contact your hosting provider and ask
whether the required image library support can be enabled.
