Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about LightPIX Stealth Image Compression

No. The free plan works without an API key. An API key is only needed for premium plans with higher usage limits.

LightPIX supports JPEG, PNG, and WebP images. Other file types are ignored and uploaded normally.

Never. LightPIX compares the compressed result with the original. If the compressed version is larger, the original is kept unchanged and marked as "already optimized."

Yes. LightPIX compresses the original uploaded image and all thumbnail sizes that WordPress generates (e.g., 150x150, 300x300, 768px, 1024px).

Yes. Use the Bulk Optimize feature in Settings > LightPIX to compress all existing images in your media library.

Results vary depending on the image, but typical savings range from 30% to 80%. Already-optimized images may see little to no reduction.

Yes. Images are sent to the LightPIX API over HTTPS, processed in memory (never stored on the API server), and the compressed result is sent back immediately. No images are retained on the API server.

Compression adds a few seconds per image depending on file size and internet speed. The process happens in the background after WordPress finishes generating thumbnails.

Yes. Go to Settings > LightPIX and uncheck "Automatically compress images when uploaded." You can still use Bulk Optimize or compress individual images manually.

If the API is unreachable, images are uploaded normally without compression. No errors are shown to the user — the plugin fails silently and logs the error.
