Photon and WP Smush it ?

I’m not entirely familiar with the plugin, but they should work well together. WP Smush it will optimize the images, and Photon will take these images and optimize them further.

If you’re a photographer or pay extra attention to the quality of your images, it might be worth running a few tests though, as compressing the images twice might end up lowering the quality of the images a bit.

Thx Jeremy for the accurate explanations and advises.

I’ll run some test and updated you with what I’ve found out.

and what happens when photon stores the first images uploaded to wordpress cms without installing smush.it before? If I install smush.it and want to optimize the images on my site, but these will be optimized hosted on my host and that are hosted on the CDN jetpack will remain the same unoptimized by smush.it.

I have understood that once uploaded the image is stored in the cache of photon and this cache can not be cleaned, if I delete an image from my site and upload another with the same name, jetpack photon will bring me the 1st picture delete because the images from my site and photon is associated with the name of the file.

@criterionet That’s correct. You’ll want to optimize your images on upload. Optimizing existing images that are already cached by Photon won’t work.
