Resize uploaded images with LS Cache

  • I am looking to prevent users from uploading and using images larger than 1500×1500 pixels with this plugin. Meaning it would resize on the fly right after uploading. While this seem to work to do the resizing job, I wonder how Litespeed Cache will deal with it. Will the available image in Media Library be the resized image by Shortpixel, or the LS version? Who will grab it first.

    I also have tested to resize images already on the server and it’s a mess. Can’t get it done right with LS and Shortpixel. If there is a way to resize images already on the server and already used as WooCommerce products with LS enabled, please give me an outline on how to go about it.

    Thanks.

    Hi daspi,

    LiteSpeed Cache (LSC) and ShortPixel Image Optimizer (SPIO) are completely different products, so there shouldn’t be any issue between them.

    If you are referring to the image optimization provided by LSC, I can only tell you that our plugin does the resizing only upon optimization. That means that if you resize an image with SPIO, you are effectively compressing it as well, which means that you shouldn’t use any other image optimization plugin to prevent over-compression issues.

    In other words, if you are using SPIO, do not touch the images with LSC ?? But you can still of course use all the cache and page optimization features by LSC.

    Hope that helps!

    Understood. My testing just showed that even after optimization, product pictures in Woocommerce were still the large original ones. I’ve even tried with LS cache disabled. Same results. Should SPIO work on existing WC product pictures?

    What would be the workflow of resizing and optimization of existing product pictures for Woocommerce? I don’t want to edit each product and assign new pictures.

    Just another update on my testing. I have a staging site now and only use this plugin to deal with my image resizing mission. I am trying to resize a few select images by just pressing the Optimize Now button in the Media Library. It is processing and completing the picture optimization, but when I check (edit the picture) it is still the same pixel size as before. I have the settings set to resize to 2000x2000px. The image remains larger. What am I missing?

    I did not run the whole Bulk Processing. Way too many pictures that don’t need it.

    Hey daspi,

    Can you please take the URL of a picture that is supposed to be resized but was not, and add ?nocache at the end? Then tell me if the picture is still not resized.

    Also, can you please send me screenshots of your ShortPixel settings?

    Thank you,
