AttiaWebP – Safe WebP Replace & Optimizer

Changelog

1.2.0

  • Added optional AVIF sidecar generation with its own quality setting and server support detection.
  • Added a Media Library WebP column with status badges, per-image savings, a one-click Convert/Regenerate button, and a bulk action.
  • Added background conversion through WP-Cron with live progress, so large libraries convert without keeping the tab open.
  • Added a progress bar, a Stop button, and per-batch counters to the interactive bulk tools.
  • Added an estimated bandwidth savings card based on real sidecar files on disk.
  • Added exclusion patterns to skip folders or file names during conversion.
  • Added WP-CLI commands: status, convert, replace, and reset-markers.
  • Added AVIF-aware server-delivery rules and a copy-paste Nginx configuration example for non-Apache servers.
  • Added a capped on-screen log of recent conversion errors with a clear action.
  • Added reset tools for conversion markers and previously skipped replacements.
  • Batches now respect the PHP time limit and stop early instead of timing out on slow hosts.
  • Added developer filters for quality, file exclusion, delivery rules, and batch time budget.
  • Added an RTL admin stylesheet.

  • Hardened server-delivery rule management and avoided creating an empty uploads .htaccess file when delivery is disabled.

  • Disabled bulk buttons when WebP support is not available on the server.
  • Refreshed the translation template and WordPress.org package metadata.
