## Descripció

**Designed2Use Convert to WebP/AVIF** is a privacy-first image optimizer with one
promise the
 big-name plugins can’t make: **your images never leave your server,
and every conversion can be undone.

Most popular optimizers upload your images to a third-party cloud service to do 
the work —
 counting against monthly quotas and handing your media to someone else’s
servers. This plugin does everything **locally**, using WordPress’s own image editor(
Imagick, falling back to GD). No accounts, no API keys, no external requests.

#### Why it’s different

 * **100% local & private** — no cloud service, no telemetry, no phone-home. Every
   image is
    processed on your own site.
 * **Fully reversible** — bulk conversion (and uploads made with «Keep original 
   file» on)
    keep your original JPG/PNG on disk and record a restore manifest, 
   so you can put any image (or all of them) back with one click. Uploads that replace
   the original can’t be undone.
 * **WebP _or_ AVIF** — choose the modern format you want. AVIF (newer, smaller)
   is offered
    automatically when your server supports it, with a safe fall back
   to WebP.
 * **See your savings** — a built-in dashboard shows how much disk space you’ve 
   saved, all
    calculated on-site.

#### What it does

 * **Converts on upload** — JPG/JPEG and PNG uploads become WebP or AVIF automatically,
   and
    because the conversion happens before WordPress builds its sub-sizes, every
   thumbnail size is generated in the new format too.
 * **Converts existing media** — a batch tool under **Media  Convert Existing** 
   processes
    your library a few images at a time with a live progress bar (no timeouts).
 * **Convert & restore from the Media Library** — convert or restore a single image
   right
    from its details (both list and grid view), or select several and use 
   the Media-list bulk actions; roll back the whole library from the Tools page.
 * **Resizes oversized images** — anything larger than your chosen longest-edge 
   limit is
    scaled down (aspect ratio preserved); smaller images are never enlarged.
 * **Never breaks an upload** — if anything goes wrong, or the server can’t write
   the format,
    the original file is kept and the upload proceeds normally.

#### Settings

Under **Settings  Convert to WebP/AVIF**:

 * **Enable conversion** — master on/off switch for upload-time conversion.
 * **Output format** — WebP (broad support) or AVIF (smaller, when available).
 * **Quality** — 1–100 (default 80). Lower means smaller files.
 * **Max longest edge (px)** — default 1600. Set 0 to convert without resizing.
 * **Keep original file** — affects new uploads only; off by default (the original
   is
    replaced). Turn on to keep both — and only then can an upload be restored
   later.
 * **Convert these formats** — JPG/JPEG and PNG.

#### Converting and restoring existing images

Go to **Media  Convert Existing**. The page shows how many images still need converting,

how many can be restored, and your running savings total. Conversions run in safe
batches.

Because bulk conversion **always keeps the original file on disk**, the change is
never
 destructive: use **Restore all to originals** on the Tools page, or the **
Restore original** row action on any converted item in the Media list (single images,
or several at once via the Media-list bulk actions), to delete the converted files
and put the attachment back exactly as it was. Uploads converted with **Keep original
file** turned on are restorable the same way; uploads that replaced their original
cannot be undone.

#### Privacy

This plugin contacts **no external server**, collects no data, and adds no tracking.
WebP
 and AVIF are written by your own server’s image library. Everything happens
on your site.

## Instal·lació

 1. Upload the `designed2use-convert-to-webp` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or 
    install through **Plugins  Add New**.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen.
 3. Go to **Settings  Convert to WebP/AVIF**, choose your output format, quality, and
    maximum edge (sensible defaults are set for you).
 4. Upload an image as usual — it’s stored in the modern format automatically.
 5. To convert your existing library, open **Media  Convert Existing** and click **
    Convert existing images**.

## PMF

### Does it send my images to a cloud service?

No. Unlike many optimizers, this plugin does all conversion on your own server using

WordPress’s built-in image editor. There are no external requests, accounts, or 
quotas.

### Can I undo a conversion?

Yes — as long as the original is still on disk. Bulk conversion always keeps originals,
and
 uploads keep theirs when **Keep original file** is enabled. Use **Restore all
to originals** on the Tools page, the **Restore original** row action on any converted
image, or the Media-list bulk action for several at once. Restore deletes the converted
files and puts the attachment back to its original JPG/PNG, mime type, and thumbnails.
Uploads that replaced their original (the default) cannot be undone.

### WebP or AVIF — which should I choose?

WebP has the broadest browser and host support and is the default. AVIF produces
smaller
 files and is offered when your server’s image library can write it; if 
you select AVIF on a server that can’t, the plugin safely falls back to WebP.

### Does it convert images already in my Media Library?

Yes — that’s what **Media  Convert Existing** is for. It processes JPG/PNG attachments
in
 batches with a progress bar and updates the savings dashboard as it goes.

### Will my originals be deleted?

Bulk conversion never deletes originals — that’s what makes restore possible. For
new
 uploads, the original is replaced by default; turn on **Keep original file**
to keep both, which is also what makes an upload restorable later.

### Does it work on shared hosting?

Yes, as long as the server’s image library can write the chosen format — the Imagick
PHP
 extension, or GD with WebP/AVIF support. If it can’t, the plugin shows a notice
and leaves your images untouched.
