## Description

It’s the only plugin that will help you pass Google Page Speed image size optimization
test. Furthermore, it compresses image file size, so you get a performance boost
and improve your page rank in Google.

The plugin uses Google Page Speed Insights API to optimize images. All you need 
is a Google console account and an API key.

Image Optimization runs in the background on Google servers, so the site will keep
its performance intact. There are no special server requirements.

#### Requirements

 * Site should be available for Google Page Speed test
 * PHP 7

#### Issues tracker

If you have any feedback or ideas, please raise an issue in our GitHub repository:

https://github.com/justcoded/just-image-optimizer/issues

#### Plugin compatibility

Plugin is compatible with such plugins:

 * [Regenerate Thumbnails](https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/)
 * [Just Responsive Images](https://wordpress.org/plugins/just-responsive-images/)

In the upcoming releases, we plan to add compatibility with WordPress MultiSite 
installation.

## Installation

 1. Upload `just-image-optimizer` plugin to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Configure your API key and desired settings via the `Media -> Just Image Optimizer`
    settings page.
 4. Done!

## FAQ

  My image optimization is always “0.00% saved”

 * Please open plugin Settings page. It will check for plugin requirements on your
   server.
 * If you don’t have any errors on Settings page, then please check logs. You should
   see that plugin try to optimize at least 1 attachment.
 * Next step is to check that Optimize request URL is accessible by Google Page 
   Speed (just copy it and try to test it with the service).
 * If nothing help, please write to us on Github with screenshots of your Settings
   page, Log page and last Log details page.

  Can I revert original images quality?

To revert original quality of the images, you can use [Regenerate Thumbnails](https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/)
plugin.

Just regenerate a single image or all images at once to create new images from the
source.

Great plugin and has a nice interface. However, feels like there is need to work
on some points at settings page, as it is a bit laggy, but that’s not a problem 
for me. Also, i’ve tried with 2 different API keys till i got connection saved. 
With the first API key the plugin didn’t want to save options, strange, as it hasn’t
any restrictions.

Wow! This plugin just helped me get 85 in Google Page Speed. It’s really easy to
use, flexible and quick. My advise is to use it in pair with Just Responsive Image!
