Does wp smush – smush images uploaded from front end?

Hi @anandmongol,

Hope you’re well ??

I’m afraid that this depends on how your front end image upload works.
Can you tell us which plugin/theme you’re using for front end uploads so we can see if there’s anything we can do on our end about this

Hi,

Thank you very much for ur swift reply. Actually I am using the wpresidence theme.

Whenever I uploads the images, I need to manually smush it using bulk smush.
Thank you very much for your help.

Thanks,

Hi AB,

Thanks for the theme URL, I checked their demo site and it seems like they are using custom uploader for their front end image upload.

Since this is premium theme with custom features I’m afraid that there’s not much we can do here and they would need to use default image uploader in order for WP Smush to catch on uploads and optimize the images automatically.

Hi Predrag,

Thank you very much for the reply, is they any way to make the bulk smush automatic at certain time of the day. Plz advance.

Thanks,

Hi @anandmongol,

I’m afraid no, images can either be optimized during upload or when you manually start the bulk smush process.

It does sound like interesting addition so I will forward it to our developers for consideration.
