## Description

Imganva SEO Images automates two repetitive tasks that happen every time you upload
an image to the WordPress Media Library.

**WebP Conversion**

Newly uploaded JPG, JPEG, and PNG images are automatically converted to WebP using
whichever image engine your server supports — Imagick is used first, GD is the fallback.
You can set the output quality and choose whether to keep the original file alongside
the WebP or replace it entirely.

SVG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, PDF, HEIC, PSD, and video files are ignored — the plugin only
touches formats where conversion makes sense.

**SEO Metadata Generation**

When you upload a file named `best-image-compressor-online-2026.jpg`, the plugin
automatically fills in the media Title, Alt Text, Caption, and Description as `Best
Image Compressor Online 2026`. Hyphens and underscores are replaced with spaces,
the extension is removed, and the result is converted to Title Case.

Each metadata field can be enabled or disabled individually so you only generate
what you need.

**What this plugin is not**

This is not an image optimisation suite. It does not scan or modify your existing
media library. It does not compress, resize, or serve images. It processes newly
uploaded images only — the moment they arrive in your media library.

**Settings**

All options are available under **Settings  Imganva SEO Images**:

 * Enable or disable WebP conversion
 * Set WebP output quality (50–100, default 85)
 * Keep the original file or replace it with the WebP
 * Enable or disable metadata generation for each field individually
 * View server status (image engine and WebP support)
 * Preview how a filename will be converted before uploading

## Installation

 1. Upload the `imganva-seo-images` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Settings  Imganva SEO Images** to configure your preferences.
 4. Upload an image to the Media Library — the plugin handles the rest.

## FAQ

### Will this plugin modify my existing images?

No. Imganva SEO Images only processes images at the moment they are uploaded. It
never scans your existing media library or modifies images that are already there.

### What image formats are converted to WebP?

JPG, JPEG, and PNG. All other formats — including SVG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, PDF, HEIC,
PSD, and videos — are left untouched.

### What happens if my server does not support WebP?

The plugin detects WebP support automatically on the Server Status section of the
settings page. If neither Imagick nor GD can produce WebP on your server, the original
image is kept and the upload completes normally. Nothing is broken.

### What is the difference between Keep Original and Replace Original?

Keep Original leaves the uploaded file on disk and generates the WebP alongside 
it. WordPress continues to point to the original file. The WebP is available for
server-level content negotiation or CDN use.

Replace Original deletes the original file after conversion and updates WordPress
to point to the new WebP file. Use this if you want WebP everywhere and have no 
need to retain the source file.

### Can I disable metadata generation for specific fields?

Yes. Title, Alt Text, Caption, and Description can each be toggled on or off independently
in the settings page.

### How does the filename-to-metadata conversion work?

The plugin removes the file extension, replaces hyphens and underscores with spaces,
collapses duplicate spaces, trims whitespace, and converts the result to Title Case.
A file named `best-image-compressor-online-2026.jpg` becomes `Best Image Compressor
Online 2026`.

### Does the plugin work on multisite?

The plugin has not been explicitly tested on WordPress multisite. Settings are stored
per site using the standard WordPress Options API, so basic functionality should
work, but multisite is not officially supported in version 1.

### Will the plugin slow down my uploads?

WebP conversion adds a small amount of processing time per upload depending on your
server’s image engine and the size of the uploaded file. For typical web images 
this is negligible. Metadata generation adds virtually no measurable overhead.
