FAQ

COMMON
QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know before getting started.

Are my original images safe?

Yes. Before any image is modified, a full backup is saved automatically. You can restore any single image or your entire library at any time with one click — no data loss ever.

Does it use an external API or send my images anywhere?

No. Smart Image Optimizer runs entirely on your server using PHP's built-in GD library. Your images never leave your server. No third-party services, no quotas, no privacy risks.

What is the difference between Pro and Pro Unlimited?

Both plans have identical features. The only difference is that Pro works on 1 website, while Pro Unlimited works on an unlimited number of sites. Pro Unlimited is the right choice for agencies and developers.

Does it slow down my website?

No — the opposite. Images are optimized once and stored on disk. Serving them is no different from serving any static file. The optimization happens offline, not on page load.

What PHP extensions are required?

PHP 8.0 or higher with the GD extension enabled. GD is installed by default on virtually all managed WordPress hosts including WP Engine, Kinsta, SiteGround, and Cloudways.

Can I use it on an existing site with thousands of images?

Yes. The bulk optimizer processes images in small batches to avoid server timeouts. You can pause and resume at any time. Works reliably on libraries with 10,000+ images.
