Now bundles with multiple cwebp binaries for linux for systems where 1.0.2 fails.

Older releases:

New conversion options

  • Added new "encoding" option, which can be set to auto. This can in some cases dramatically reduce the size of the webp. It is supported by all converters except ewww and gd.
  • Added new "near-lossless" option (only for cwebp and vips). Using this is a good idea for reducing size of lossless webps with an acceptable loss of quality
  • Added new "alpha-quality" option (all converters, except ewww and gd). Using this is a good idea when images with transparency are converted to lossy webp - it has the potential to reduce the size up to 50% (depending on the source material) while keeping an acceptable level of quality
  • Added new conversion methods: Vips and GraphicsMagick
  • Imagick conversion method now supports webp options (finally cracked it!)
  • Using MimeType detection instead of relying on file extensions
  • In "test" converter you now change options and also test PNG files
  • Added conversion logs
  • PNGs are now enabled by default (with the new conversion features especially PNGs are compressed much better)

  • Fixed critical bug which could result in update failures in the Gutenberg editor. Thanks to Andrei Glingeanu from Moldova for his part in solving this.
  • Fixed bug that caused the Bulk convert to start over. Thanks to Bas van Dijk, presumably from the Netherlands, for finding the root cause.
  • On Nginx (in some configurations), the script that triggered conversion were exiting prematurely. Thanks to Sam Benson from the UK for fixing this.
  • Improved Bulk conversion client, which was slowing down when many images where converted.
  • A class had existential problems on HHVM. Thanks to @jaumerrr for posting the PHP error message.
  • When selecting "custom" in the Cache-Control dropdown, the default text was invalid syntax. Thanks to Kevin Batdorf from Thailand for discovering this.
  • When an image was deleted, the corresponding webp image was not automatically deleted. Thanks to Tobias Keller from Germany for pointing out that this could potentially lead to old webp images being shown.

  • Multisite support (!)
  • A new operation mode: "No conversion", if you do not want to use WebP Express for converting. Replaces the old "Just redirect" mode
  • Added capability testing of .htaccess. The .htaccess rules are now tailored to the capabilities on the system. For example, on some platforms the filename of a requested image is passed to the converter script through the query string, but on platforms that supports passing it through an environment variable, that method is used instead
  • Picturefill.js is now optional (alter html, picture tag)
  • A great bunch more!

Preparing 0.11.3

  • Fixed bug: Alter HTML caused media library not to display images on some systems. Alter HTML is now disabled in admin mode.
  • Alter HTML (picture tags) could produce the source tags with "src" attribute. But source tags inside picture tags must use "srcset" attribute. Fixed.
  • Alter HTML (image urls): srcsets containing "x" descriptors wasn't handled (ie, srcset="image.jpg 1x")
  • Fixed rewrite rules when placed in root so they are confined to wp-content and uploads. In particular, they no longer apply in wp-admin area, which might have caused problems, ie with media library.
  • Added warning when rules are placed in root and "Convert non-existing webp-files upon request" feature is enabled and WebP Express rules are to be placed below Wordpress rules
  • Fixed bug: The code that determined if WebP Express had placed rules in a .htaccess failed in "CDN friendly" mode. The effect was that these rules was not cleaned up upon plugin deactivation
