How does it work?
Each time you upload an image to your WordPress site, it is sent to the Pixpie Cloud. Cloud analyzes you picture using artificial intelligence algorithms and applies best possible optimization.
The result is saved in your WordPress Media Library. The original image can be automatically backed up or replaced by optimized image. Average JPEG file is compressed by 40%, PNG file by 50%, without visible loss in quality.
Your website will load faster, have a higher ranking in search engines, save bandwidth, and storage space!
As we want to make the plugin as much as possible compatible with others plugins and WP / PHP version, since plugin is activated it can provide Pixpie with the information about blog’s server address, port, PHP version, current WP version, admin email, site url, information about the errors (that could happen during compression) and already installed plugins.
This information simplifies improvement of plugin as Pixpie knows more about issues and environments where these issues have happened and how to contact the blog owner if it’s needed.
