Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Hridyaa Image Compressor and Optimizer

No. Your original JPEG, PNG, and GIF images are strictly preserved. The plugin creates separate companion .webp files alongside your originals.

The plugin requires either the PHP GD extension (ext-gd) with WebP support or the ImageMagick extension (ext-imagick). The plugin automatically detects and selects the best available engine on your server.

When enabled, the plugin rewrites standard <img> tags in your post content and featured images into standard HTML5 <picture> tags containing <source type="image/webp"> alongside the original <img> fallback.

Yes. In addition to the interactive AJAX bulk converter, Hridyaa includes a headless WP-Cron background worker that processes batches continuously on scheduled ticks.

The plugin includes a Negative Compression Guard. If a converted WebP file ends up larger than or equal to the original image, the derivative is automatically discarded to save disk space.

The Free plugin provides complete WebP optimization. Next-generation AVIF conversion is available through the separate commercial Pro add-on for servers running PHP 8.1+ with AVIF-enabled GD or ImageMagick.

Deactivating the plugin stops WebP conversion and picture tag delivery. Deleting the plugin through the WordPress admin runs uninstall.php, which cleans up all options, transients, and conversion metadata while leaving your original media files untouched.
