Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Henkan - WebP & AVIF Converter

By default, no! Henkan keeps your original JPEGs and PNGs safely stored. You can easily toggle this behavior in the settings if you want to aggressively save disk space. Note: If you choose to delete the originals, the newly generated optimized file (e.g., WebP or AVIF) will officially replace the old JPEG/PNG as the primary attachment in your WordPress database.

Absolutely not. Henkan processes everything locally on your own server. No cloud limits, no monthly fees, completely free and open-source.

For large media libraries, using the terminal is highly recommended. * Scan and convert all missing images: wp henkan convert * Force convert everything: wp henkan convert --force
