PuffPix Compress Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
PuffPix Compress automatically optimizes every image you upload to WordPress — reducing file sizes by 40–80% without visible quality loss. Faster pages, lower bandwidth, better Core Web Vitals scores.
It works by connecting to the PuffPix image compression API. When you upload an image, PuffPix compresses it server-side using industry-leading encoders (mozjpeg, pngquant, cwebp) and returns the optimized file, which replaces the original in your media library.
Why PuffPix?
- No server load — compression happens on PuffPix servers, not yours
- Better results than GD — uses mozjpeg and pngquant for noticeably smaller files at the same quality
- All thumbnail sizes — automatically compresses every generated thumbnail, not just the original
- EXIF stripping — removes GPS coordinates and device metadata for privacy
- Bulk optimization — compress your entire existing media library in one click with a live progress log
- Per-image stats — see exactly how much each image was reduced, right in the media library
Compression Engines
- Standard (GD) — PHP’s built-in image library. Fast and universally compatible. Quality 85 (balanced) or 72 (aggressive).
- Pro (mozjpeg + pngquant) — significantly better compression than GD at the same visual quality. JPEGs typically 20–30% smaller than GD output.
- Max — maximum compression using the best available encoder per format. Smallest possible file size. Requires Pro or Trial plan.
Supported Formats
JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF. SVG support is available on the PuffPix web tool.
