Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Disable Thumbnails, Threshold and Image Options

Every size WordPress generates takes up space on your server. If your theme only uses two or three sizes, the rest are just wasted storage. Disabling them means faster uploads and less disk usage.
Yes. Changes only apply to new uploads. To update existing images, use a plugin like Regenerate Thumbnails or run wp media regenerate from WP-CLI.
Since WordPress 5.3, any image wider or taller than 2560 px is automatically scaled down and the original is saved with a -scaled suffix. Disabling the threshold keeps your originals untouched. You can also set a custom value (e.g. 4000 px) instead of disabling it entirely.
The plugin compares your setting against the WordPress default (82%) and shows an info message below the field. Since 0.7.0 the conflict detection is safer and won't interfere with other plugins.
Yes. WooCommerce registers its own image sizes and they'll appear in the Image Sizes list so you can disable them individually.
The settings pages are admin-only. The only thing that runs on the front end is a lightweight filter registration (no database queries) that tells WordPress which sizes to skip and what quality/threshold to use.
