Automatic optimization process goes via the Kraken. Where customers’ images are processed in order and loaded back in the amount of 250 images at a time. |
The settings area allows to configure the following: - lossy or lossless kind of compression - lossy compression will reduce the image size by up to 70%, losing a little in quality; lossless compression will reduce the image size by up to 30%
- optimize only published products - Minifier will skip images that don't need to be optimized, which will speed up the optimization process
- convert files to JPG - images saved in JPG load faster than in PNG
- skip previously optimized images - previously compressed images will not be compressed
- optimize file names automatically - for higher search engine rankings, filenames must be supplied by keywords. If this configuration is switched on, Minifier will combine image titles from the file data such as PRODUCT TYPE and PRODUCT TITLE. When PRODUCT TYPE is unavailable, the image title will be made from PRODUCT TITLE only.
After clicking on the Save settings button new settings will be saved and will be used in the future for the auto-optimization process for not optimized store pictures.
The images optimized graph introduces the information on the extension usage. Choose the needed period to check the number of optimized images during it.
