## Description

Milyutin Image Optimizer is a fast, lightweight, and completely local image optimization
plugin for WordPress. It automatically converts your uploaded JPG and PNG images
into the modern WebP format, significantly reducing file sizes without losing visual
quality.

Unlike other services, this plugin does not use external APIs or cloud servers. 
All optimization happens directly on your server, ensuring maximum privacy and zero
subscription fees.

**Key Features:**

 * **Automatic WebP Conversion:** Converts new JPG/PNG uploads to WebP on the fly.
 * **Thumbnail Optimization:** Automatically generates WebP versions for all your
   theme’s thumbnail sizes.
 * **Bulk Optimization:** Convert your entire existing media library in batches 
   directly from the dashboard.
 * **Activity Logs:** See exactly which files were optimized, how much space was
   saved, and catch any errors.
 * **Statistics Dashboard:** Track total disk space saved by the plugin.
 * **Lightweight & Fast:** Built with clean code, no jQuery dependencies on the 
   frontend, and no external requests.

**Upgrade to Pro:**
 Take your site performance to the next level with Milyutin 
Image Optimizer Pro: * AVIF format support (even smaller files than WebP). * Unlimited
background bulk conversion. * Automatic image resizing (Max Width/Height). * Delete
original heavy JPG/PNG files to massively save disk space. * Priority technical 
support.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `milyutin-image-optimizer` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory,
    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to the ‘Milyutin Image Opt.’ menu in the admin dashboard to configure settings.
 4. Use the ‘Bulk Conversion’ section to optimize your existing images.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin modify my original images?

In the Lite version, no. The plugin creates new `.webp` files next to your originals.
Your original JPG and PNG files remain completely untouched and intact. (The Pro
version includes an option to delete originals to save space).

### What if my server doesn’t support WebP?

The plugin checks your server’s capabilities (via GD or Imagick). If WebP is not
supported, a clear warning will be displayed in the admin panel, and the plugin 
will safely skip conversion.

### Do I need an API key or cloud account?

No. All optimization is done locally on your own hosting server. There are no limits,
no monthly fees, and your images never leave your server.

### Can I convert images that were uploaded before installing the plugin?

Yes! Go to the plugin settings page and use the “Bulk Conversion” tool to process
your existing media library.
