Thanks for the reply. I’d be more than happy to beta test whatever enhancements you develop in this regard. Please let me know, in the interim, if you have any further insights on how to resolve this issue.

Here is additional information that may help to resolve this issue.

I have a curating plugin that posts content periodically to my website. This saves jpeg images for each post to the main uploads directory. The MetaSlider Pro plugin creates resized images “on the fly” based on these images in the same main uploads directory.

I need the EWWW Image Optimizer to auto optimize both the originally posted jpegs (which are added to the Media Library upon post creation) and the slider resized jpegs (which are NOT added to the Media Library but created in the main uploads directory).

Please let me know how best to handle. Thanks again.

Where is it coded to only optimize images that are contained within the Media Library? I wish to change that subset of images to optimize all images in the uploads directory.

Also, are the images automatically optimized within the Media Library or are there additional settings required to make that work for the plugin. It doesn’t seem to auto optimize images within the Media Library. When I view the Media Library it states “Not Optimized” next to images in the Media Library even after plugin installation.

Here is my setup for the plugin, and I am running PHP 5.3 on a Linux Server on a shared Hostgator server. I haven’t changed or checked any of the plugin settings.

Plugin Status

If updated versions are available below, you may need to enable write permission on the wp-content/ewww folder to use the automatic installs.
*Updates are optional, but may contain increased optimization or security patches

jpegtran: OK version: Independent JPEG Group’s JPEGTRAN, version 9 13-Jan-2013
optipng: OK version: OptiPNG version 0.7.4
gifsicle: OK version: LCDF Gifsicle 1.70
Graphics libraries – only need one, used for conversion, not optimization: GD: OK   Imagemagick ‘convert’: OK
safe mode: Off  exec(): OK  
Only need one of these: finfo: OK  getimagesize(): OK  mime_content_type(): OK

I have an issue related to a slider (MetaSlider Pro) that resizes images and saves them to the uploads directory but not the Media Library. As a result, the jpegs for the slider are not progressive jpegs.

The EWWW Image Optimizer only appears to optimize images that are included in the Media Library. Please let me know if I am missing something.

I am conversant with LAMP installations and pretty good with rewriting PHP code so perhaps there is a way that I can specify that all images (i.e. jpegs) within the uploads directory be optimized. That way, the EWWW image optimizer plugin would optimize the images automatically.

Please advise on how to best resolve this issue.

Thanks.

I am using TubePress 3.0.1 on a WP 3.5.1 installation on a shared linux server (PHP 5.2). I am having exactly the same thumbnails issue.

The videos and thumbnails display great for both YouTube and Vimeo, and the first video runs without issue. The thumbnails either do not load videos or simply fade out the video box (depending on the browser). I am thinking that this issue is due to the Cross Domain Ajax issue as my Site and WordPress URL are both set to http://www.worldnewsreader.com but the tubepress documentation indicates that the ajax call is most likely to worldnewsreader.com. I am fairly versatile with manipulating my .htaccess file but I still can’t seem to get the thumbnails to load properly. Firebug hasn’t helped to fix the issue either.

I’ve deactivated all the existing plugins to better isolate troubleshooting this issue, and you can view the tubepress installation at http://www.worldnewsreader.com/trendingnow. I’d greatly appreciate if you can provide the necessary mod rewrite to insert into my .htaccess file so that I can get the thumbnails to load properly or if there is a better way to resolve this issue. Thanks.
