1.1.0
915e054

First release on GitHub. Pload converts your JPEG and PNG images to WebP in small background steps, so even a cheap shared host can optimize a large media library without timeouts. Original files are never changed.

New in 1.1.0

Media library column

  • New Pload column with Optimize, Apply new settings and Don't optimize buttons. They work without reloading the page.
  • See the new size and the saving for each image, with a Details list for every image size.
  • The same block appears in the attachment details and the media modal.

New quality levels

  • Based on a benchmark with real store photos: Balanced is now 75 (was 80) and High quality 85 (was 90). Files are clearly smaller with no visible difference.
  • Updating from 1.0 keeps your existing WebP files. The Pload page offers a one-click rebuild with the new levels.

New settings

  • Maximum image size for new uploads (uses WordPress's own threshold; the original is kept).
  • CDN address for the WebP sources (Settings → Advanced).

Fixes

  • Image sizes in the media library no longer break or overflow in right-to-left languages.

Already in 1.0

  • Server test before starting: image engine, safe memory and time per step, disk space estimate.
  • Background processing via WP-Cron, with fallbacks when WP-Cron is off.
  • WebP delivery with <picture>: no .htaccess, works on Apache, Nginx and LiteSpeed.
  • Works with theme lazy loading (WoodMart and similar).
  • Auto-pause on low disk space, with the real cPanel quota.
  • Exclusions by image, page address or CSS class.
  • One-click removal of all WebP files.
