Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Flux Media Optimizer – Image & Video Optimization by Flux Plugins
Yes, Flux Media Optimizer works with any WordPress theme. It integrates seamlessly with WordPress's image rendering system and doesn't require any theme modifications. The plugin hooks into WordPress's core image functions, so it works automatically with any theme that uses standard WordPress image functions.
No, Flux Media Optimizer creates new optimized versions while keeping your original media files as fallbacks. Your original images and videos remain untouched and are always available as a fallback for browsers that don't support modern formats or if you need to restore the originals.
Yes! Flux Media Optimizer can bulk process all your existing images and videos. Just go to the settings page and enable bulk conversion to optimize your entire media library. However, some pages utilizing the media files may require updating, as they may have directly embedded the non-optimized format.
Yes. The Media Library list view includes an Optimization column with status badges and a filter dropdown for Optimized, Pending, Failed, Disabled, and Unprocessed items. Local optimization status is always visible; cloud Pending/Failed states appear when optional Flux cloud processing is enabled.
The CDN (Content Delivery Network) feature is an optional service that stores your media files on a global network of servers. This ensures your images, videos and other media files load instantly for visitors worldwide, regardless of their location. The CDN feature requires explicit opt-in and a license key - all core functionality works locally without it.
Currently the original files are still stored on your system for fallback, so there is no storage benefit. It will optimize page load speeds and reduce the download size for your webpages. The optimized files are typically 50-70% smaller than the originals, which means faster page loads and better user experience.
Flux Media Optimizer automatically detects your server's capabilities and only creates formats that are supported. If your server doesn't support modern formats, you can purchase a license to utilize the external processing and CDN service, which handles all format conversions on external servers.
Yes! Flux Media Optimizer fully supports both static and animated GIFs. When Imagick is available, animated GIFs are converted while preserving their animation. The plugin automatically detects whether a GIF is animated and handles it appropriately.
No, Flux Media Optimizer is designed to improve your site's performance, not slow it down. Media optimization happens in the background, and the plugin uses efficient caching to minimize any impact. However, compressing images and especially videos can be CPU intensive during conversion operations. With the optional license service, all compression operations are done on our remote servers, reducing your server load. Your pages will load faster as optimized media is served efficiently.
Yes, Flux Media Optimizer provides comprehensive quality control settings. You can adjust the quality settings for WebP and AVIF formats separately, allowing you to balance file size and image quality according to your needs.
