## Description

**Pro Image Optimizer** is a lightweight, advanced image compression engine designed
to drastically reduce your media library size and improve your website’s page load
speed.

It handles everything from background WebP conversion to database-level URL replacement,
ensuring your live site never breaks when file extensions change.

### Key Features

 * **WebP Conversion:** Safely converts bulky `.jpg` and `.png` files into modern,
   highly compressed `.webp` formats.
 * **Auto-Update Database URLs:** Automatically scans your pages and posts to update
   the image links from `.jpg/.png` to the new `.webp` extension.
 * **Safe Mode Guarantee:** If compressing an image or converting it to WebP results
   in a larger file size, the plugin automatically discards the compressed version
   and keeps your original file untouched.
 * **Massive Image Resizing:** Automatically scales down oversized raw camera uploads(
   e.g., limits a 6000px image to 2048px) before compression.
 * **Live AJAX Progress Bar:** Process thousands of images in batches with a smooth,
   interactive popup interface that prevents server timeouts and avoids full-page
   reloads.
 * **Automated Cleanup:** Safely purges old, unneeded thumbnail sizes from your 
   server to save disk space after a successful WebP conversion.
 * **Filter Options:** Easily filter your media library dashboard to target only
   JPGs, PNGs, or WebP files.

## FAQ

### Will this plugin break my images if the format changes to WebP?

No. If you check the “Auto-Update URLs” box, the plugin automatically searches your
WordPress database and updates the hardcoded links in your posts and pages to point
to the new WebP file.

### What happens if compression makes the file larger?

The plugin features a “Safe Mode” that creates a temporary file first. If the resulting
file is larger than the original, it skips the image entirely and retains your original
file.

### Will this crash my server if I have thousands of images?

No. The plugin utilizes an asynchronous AJAX queue to process images one by one 
in the background, ensuring your PHP memory limits are never exceeded.
