    WordPress and WooCommerce are great at creatign way too mayn image sizes that you do not need. As a result I have 7000 images on my site, when I only possibly require 2000.

    Does your plugin remove redundant image sizes? Or is it best we clean up all the redundant image sizes before we install your plugin?

    Hello,

    Optimole is a cloud-based optimization service and use the original images as sources when optimizing them. The additional sizes that WordPress creates are redundant in this case and won’t be used or affect in any way.

    Also, Optimole works a bit detached from the standard WordPress image sizes and provides responsive images indifferent of what kind of sizes do you have available.

    I.e if on mobile you have an image container of 200×200 we resize the image to 200×200. If the desktop version is 300×300 we resize it to 300×300

    Let me know if this makes sense to you.
