Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about BytCrush Image Compression

In a private folder inside wp-content/uploads/ named bytcrush-backups- plus a random code that is unique to your site, mirroring your uploads folder. Settings shows the exact name. The random name keeps the originals (which still contain camera metadata) from being guessed, including on Nginx servers that ignore .htaccess protection.

BytCrush needs the Imagick (preferred) or GD PHP extension, which almost every host provides. The Settings screen shows whether your server can create WebP and AVIF.

PHP 7.2 to 8.5 and WordPress 5.3 to 7.1. Every release is tested on each of those versions, on a strict shared-hosting setup (GD only, 64 MB memory, 30-second time limit) as well as on Nginx. WebP needs an image library built with WebP support; AVIF needs PHP 8.1+ with GD, or Imagick with AVIF support. The Settings screen shows what your server can do. I use Nginx. Use the default "Picture tags" delivery method. It works on every server.

Add the class no-bytcrush or the attribute data-bytcrush-skip to the <img> tag.
