Biggest opportunity: Swap “woocommerce images” and “woocommerce product images” for “cropping” and “cut to size”. “woocommerce images” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “cropping” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce product images” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “cut to size” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

2.6%

of downloads still active

At least 7K of 273K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,166 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 8 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    Fastest 5 star review I’ve ever left. Woocommerce store with thousands of existing products and more added daily. We have to source our product images from various suppliers and manufacturers, all whom save their images in different formats and sizes. Some of which have a lot of unnecessary white space which affects all of our product thumbnails. So some products look smaller than others on archive galleries. You can use the built in crop tool on woocommerce so they’re all 1:1 but it will obviously crop some of your images which looks horrendous. This tool with a click of a button processed all our images, removed all the unnecessary white space and resized them so now every single product image appears the same size. Preprocessing our images in photoshop would be an impossible task as we already have thousands of images and add more daily. This took 5 minutes to setup. Let the bulk gen run and walk away. Come back and it’s finished. I upgraded to the pro version which was on sale. Lifetime license for the cost of a one year subscription. Now not only do all the products appear uniform but are displayed in webp which Imagify wouldn’t do for thumbnails.

    The plugin creates new images but does not change the original. Many of the current (premium) themes automatically change the uploaded images to .webp. Because these are so small, they use the original for zoom images, product thumbnails and lightbox. I manage 10+ webshops with different premium themes and see that the images created by the plugin are only used in the product gallery and product image. The thumbs, zoom, etc. are the unmodified original image. So if the original is also modified, the plugin works 100%, now it only works half. This topic was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by zettbee.

    I have the pro version and overall I like this plugin but it’s missing some features that I feel are critical. I’ve had the pro version for a few years but now I’m looking elsewhere to find the features shown below. I will not be renewing if nothing has changed. Upscaling images so that you can meet the minimum sizes required by different platforms. Modified images should replace the original images to drastically save space. Set minimum sizes so that after trimming an image it’s not smaller than the set size. Option to manually process images from the media screen. Include the image regeneration ability within the plugin instead of relying on another 3rd party plugin. It would be nice if you had accounts on your site for accessing subscription and license information.
