Plugin Description
An image file (e.g. JPEG, PNG) contains metadata, i.e. information about the image, e.g. which camera model was used, when the picture has been taken or various image regions. Image regions are useful for describing specific areas of the image (e.g. objects, people) or for indicating how the image should be cropped or rotated to best fit a given container.
This WordPress plugin reads such image regions in order to automatically crop images the best possible way, depending on which container they are being displayed in.
The Frameright app can be used to define such image regions and insert them in the metadata of a picture.
How does it work?
When uploading an image via the Image Library, cropped versions of that image (so-called hardcrops) are automatically generated according to the image region metadata and also added to the Image Library.
Within a post or page an author can then either directly insert these hardcrops or insert the original image. Upon changing the ratio of the original image within a post or page, the best suited hardcrop will automatically be rendered to visitors.

This plugin is based on Frameright/image, a fork of dchesterton/image, an image metadata library. Many thanks to dchesterton!
